Why do I constantly get error Chrome isn't responding

I had the same problem a while back. I never did figure out what caused it. I think it was an update.

Started happening to me lately. Yeah, sounds like a bad update.

It was happening on both my Tab S2 and my Note 8.

Mines too it was making my phone freeze. But i just updated it lets hope it gets fixed

what happens if you reinstall

 

[j_hansen]

try and go into settings - apps - chrome and then under storage delete cache/data
sometimes it helps after an update of an app

Almost never... until now. Odd. I usually use Canary too.

Thought maybe having stock, Beta and Dev along with Canary was causing mischief.

I run with JavaScript off and only enabled for top level sites I frequent. If I uninstall, I lose all that work so am hesitant to.

Was so bad last time, Saturday, I could not even turn off phone! Ended up worried and said f! it, time to do factory erase. Was going to before Oreo drops anyway. And no problem on a s8+ running last 8.0 beta. Both phones are almost 100% identical in setup.

Google just rolled out it's ad filtering / blocking in builds above 65.x so maybe connected?

Could be a bug in google chrome. Try clearing the cache and data, then reboot your phone. If it doesn't fix the problem, try removing the battery and putting it back in. If all else fails, you may have a bug in your phone and a factory reset may be needed..

This problem is fixed by going to setting, tap on apps, find chrome, clear the cache and data, then reboot your phone. If this problem continues, turn the phone off, remove the battery, wait 10 seconds, put back the battery, then turn the phone on. You can also force stop it or uninstall chrome then reinstall it, then update it. If these methods don't work, you may have a bug in your software which will need a factory reset.
