Snapchat issues

[naash89]

is anyone else having issues with snapchat? everytime i open the app it seems to freeze my phone and i cant do anything, everything becomes unresponsive

 

[Andrew Hunter281]

Yep, regularly have issues with it freezing my phone

Yes, it regularly locks my phone completely. I think its the cause of another intermittent issue too that crashes my camera resulting in a black screen (in any app that uses the camera), requiring a restart of the phone to remedy.

Does anyone know what its like on the 6P? I wonder is it to do with the way it runs on Marshmallow or just on Android in general.

I've also had a lot of trouble with snapchat, I narrowed it down to times when i open the app and have a lot of unseen stories that try to load at once, I just disabled the autoloading on stories while on data and it seems to have helped a little, but it's definitely still there.

I've even been thinking of selling my 5X to get a 6P but don't know if the 6P is the same.

The beta channel was updated three days ago with a fix for Marshmallow devices like the 6P and 5X. It is MUCH smoother now.
