Apps started closing themselves on Nexus 5
Apps have recently started closing themselves on my Nexus 5. I'm not sure if they're crashing as the phone seems to operate normally after its happened (albeit a bit slow since updating to lollipop) and seems more like they're just closing themselves than crashing. Maybe that's the same thing, I don't know. I always just associate crashes with with pointless little green bars and frozen screens like on a PC.
I was wondering if this is some bug related to the Lollipop update or if it's just a coincidence that its started happening round about the same time I updated. I'm ok with computers but a bit clueless when it comes to phone software so was wondering whether it might alternatively be a virus of some kind. No real idea whether virus' are an issue on android though. Any advice appreciated.
EDIT: For some reason I can't respond to any comments on here, only edit this post, so I have reposted in the Geneal help and How to forum (although as i only have 2 posts so far i can't post a direct link to the thread :-\)
RE-EDIT: Ok now I get what's going on, I was just getting mighty confused with the QA section. Hadn't realised that was linking directly to a forum post.
