Many apps will not function properly over 4G

[Trey Powell]

I'm on Verizon using a Galaxy S8. I've had this phone for over two years now and it's been great. However, a few days ago, a few apps stopped functioning. In particular, HotSchedules that I use to see my work schedule and Chase Banking. With both of these, the app will start but when I actually go to log in it just sits at the loading screen. Sometimes I can get through after multiple attempts but it's frustrating. Also on GroupMe, many messages either don't send or takes a long time to send. Most other things appear to be functioning well, such as text messages, Facebook & messenger, video streaming, etc. If I connect to wifi, all apps will now function normally.

I've uninstalled & re-installed the apps, as well as rebooted my phone several times but no luck yet. Any ideas why this is happening? Thanks.

Have you noticed any differences in your signal strength? Could there be service being done on towers in your area?
