I’ve been having problems similar to those reported recently by other users. This used to be the absolute best search app. Since a few weeks ago, however, the app opens but doesn’t allow any entries, and sometimes even crashes my phone. I’ve switched to a competitor with less comprehensive results but with the benefit that my searches aren’t tracked. Very disappointed in Google. Update 4/27/22: I can fix this by uninstalling all updates. But I have to do that at least once per day. Um… nope.
Lately (past month or so) I’ve had lots of intermittant glitches in the video playback on Google. The video plays a few seconds then stops! I must hit hit play again. The video continues and then stops again. This repeats, requiring me to hit play 15 to 30 times to finish the video, which I refuse to do! I get the same problem with three different video players. Please fix this.
I have no idea what’s happening but it sucks that Google isn’t working anymore. I’ve had the EXACT SAME EXPERIENCE others are reporting in comments: open and it freezes, open and it freezes. Obviously, there’s something going on with Google and I look forward to an update, allowing me to once again enjoy this useful tool. Till then, I guess it’s Microsoft Edge for now.
I used to love this! It was saved on my homescreen and was my go to for searching. But in the last 2-3 weeks it has stopped working. The screen pulls up and then freezes. I can’t input search data, I can’t exit back to my homescreen, it just completely freezes my entire phone. I tried troubleshooting but nothing is working. I hope Google will fix this so that it works again. For now I have stopped using it. So sad because before I would have given 5 stars.
