#PSA: It’s a weird bug with Android System Webview, not just on MIUI!
https://www.reddit.com/r/Android/comments/mb0wy5/android_apps_keep_crashing_gmail_yahoo_mail/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share
Duuude, I literally was configuring my phone until like 30m ago for the last few hours. Unfortunately my problem was with Google play services and installing an apk update only made it much worse to the point getting stuck on a permanent loop.
Factory reset was the only way out.
I wish I saw this earlier…
Thanks a lot. I thought my fgo acc was a goner.
Which version of webview,I noticed my app crashed twice after updating
I just checked and the latest version for me is dated 12 March 🤷🏻♂️ will check again in a few days
worked for me too thanks! Tachiyomi kept closing because of this too.
Thank you also. Struggled for a few hours after installing an iOS style theme.
I had the option to update so did that and it worked.
Thanks again.
Where is this on my phone. It’s not listed as an app or a setting
Thanks!
The bug is caused by Android System Webview. All android phones are affected. Mine isn’t because I don’t do automatic updates from Play store.
Thanks you are a life saver. I was so confused. My K20 Pro was crashing now and then while using apps.
On a hunch I came here as I was getting constant MSA crashes – Google Search and Outlook were also crashing every time they loaded.
Uninstalled Android System Webview and hey presto, back to normal. Thanks for the tip!
Thanks bro
Thank you!
Я не нахожу это приложение
Thx ma man.
Saved my butt.
What if I can’t access to the play store?
Thank you dude you really are a lifesaver
Что за хуйня
Same here…. Anyone know how to fix this?
Google Play -> Installed Apps -> Search for Android System Webview
Just happened to me after 4am. All app that can read internal memory are crash immediately after opening. Have to clear data of the app everytime I need to open it
uninstall updates from chrome worked for me
Upgrade!
Thanks man, you helped everyone a lot 💪🏽❤️
I cant uninstall Android System Web view. Please help.
Uninstalling chrome worked for me but chrome was also mentioned in my error report. In op’s webview is mentioned that is why it’s different which app works for people. Curious why this happened to so many
almost factory reseting my phone thx man
Same…
Dude thanks man! This fixed it for me.
I now see there is an update in the play store but it’s stuck on “updating” and I can’t cancel or restart. However, all my apps are still working so that’s good.
Thank you so much ! Why the heck this is even happening my phone was working normal then tonight all apps crashing and before boot looping I’m not rooted on on test beta like what the hell
Google Play -> Installed apps
Do not remove the program, there is an update now on Google Play for Android System Webview and it sloved the problem
this is why i love reddit. Thank you for your help sir
It seems there is an update to it, since 22 march. Also possibly miui autoupdated to the last android security patch, and asw was also updated. So i suspect some discrepancy between the two.
You’ve totally saved me from lobbing my Poco X3 out the window, thank you!!
Same, Redmi Note 8 pro
yeah thank you that fixed it for me
WORKED!!!! THANK YOU MAN
For me, I needed to update WebView. I’d suggests trying that first, then you can still uninstall if it doesn’t work.
You are a life saver man
Worked for me, thanks alot
Happy it helped! Consider disabling MSA while you’re at it.
Update Android System Webview app
Oh that’s happening to me too! I work with this phone, I’m always on the way and need Gmail desperately. I’m using it in Chrome right now and plain crossing my fingers Chrome doesn’t start crashing too!
Thanks a lot dude, it worked
Oh? I needed to wait 10s but was able to disable it then.
Почему люди не могут заниматься тем что хотят🤔 Если это действительно нравится людям они найдут выход и сделают новое приложение/телефон другой купят. Пф
it doesnt give me an option to uninstall or disable at all when i look it up
doesen’t let me do it
Thanks for my first award ever 🤠
Google Play -> Installed Apps -> Search
Yay!
Thank you
TFW your Google app keeps crashing whenever you try to open it up and thus u cannot even look up Webview
Такое же устройство и такие же проблемы начались пару часов назад весь ютуб переискал много способов перепробовал нечего не помогло
I do not have the option to uninstal this from my phone
You’re a lifesaver man!! Suddenly my mi 11 have this issue this morning & it drives me mad. Nothing I do solve the problem. Then, this notification comes in, LOL.
BTW, how do you know?
I think so, but I use the Gboard keyboard so not sure.
Redmi note 4x
Holy shit I’ve been trying to figure this out all day
Happens with gmail, messenger.
And I keep getting MSA has stopped working notification
I’ve done that repeatedly, wait the full ten secs with the Grey button. Every time I get hit by something like “cannot revoke license”.
I’m also getting the same message eith the same error problem with my poco x3 that i bought just a month ago,need help asap!
It’s just been around half an hour my device suddenly functioning weird .
This bug started showing up for me yesterday, closing most my apps. This actually fixed it, thanks.
Thank you❤️
Search on google playstore instead, you can uninstall from there (also 8 pro here)
Thank you 🙏
Thank you!
Holy shit it work
This was happening to me as well. Both on Mi Mix 3 and Poco M3. Thankfully, the first comment fixed it.
Hi we’ve noticed this issue where many users are facing with “MSA keeps stopping” (Also other apps r crashing) issue, please try these steps:
1. Settings –> Apps –> Manage apps –> search “WebView” –>open “Android System WebView” –> Clear all data
2. Uninstall webview
Webview just updated a couple hours ago! This update fixes everything for me.
Hey mu friend you wondeefull Thanks
Thank you dude! I was so scared and thought my phone had broken.
Just update Chrome and/or Webview, it should resolve itself.
Source: [https://www.xda-developers.com/google-confirms-webview-issue-crashing-android-apps/](https://www.xda-developers.com/google-confirms-webview-issue-crashing-android-apps/)
the same thing happened to me
Agreed! Unfortunately no newer version on my device yet…
I have a redmi phone. Apps started crashing s suddenly since morning. But I don see webview in my installed apps and I could not uninstall chrome. Pls suggest a solution
Just remove it. I think it’ll default to the system installed version. In a few weeks you should be able to upgrade again.
Muchas gracias, me sirvió tu consejo, y
Les voy ahorrar la traducción a los hispanohablantes, si es que hay uno que no llegue a entender.
Lo que harán es desinstalar Android System Webview busque en Google Play en la Aplicaciones instaladas “Android System Webview”. Y si no funciona hay intentar desinstalar Google Chrome.
Having same issue…
If they don’t fix this I’ll have to chance my phone and if I really need to change it I might switch to samsung (some late models) because I almost do everything on my phone from small work to emailing, etc. And I need it to operate everything smoothly but now It keeps crashing and having the though to change phone it irritates me not because of the cost etc but because I’ll have to log-in to almost 200 apps and my emails of work/personal too.
2FA omg just thinking about it I’m dead.
Device: Redmi Note 9 Pro
Same here
Great! Thanks opt 2 worked 4 me redmi note 8 pro, was crashing with Gmail, Google and much more. Thnkz dude!
Thanks man.
I can’t fix my Phone because im German and i dont Know what to do
For me it’s happening with gmail, themes and Irobot
Guessed from the symptoms (web based apps, html displaying apps, etc). And the same thing happened 1-2 years ago.
Had the same issue for Amazon Shopping and DHL tracking. Updating Android System Webview solved it for me.
how did u solve this issue? im suffering right now.
Updating Android System Webview also works now! Had the same error but instead of uninstalling i gave updating a chance. Bugs seem fixed this way..
Well deserved 😀
Ad service by Xiaomi. Disable in settings, passwords & security, authorization & de-something.
I have redmi note 8t and miui 12. An hour ago, all applications just started crashing!
Okay so I guess it doesn’t depend on the MIUI version! It’s been going on for almost a week on my phone and I even tried a factory reset but no luck… Hopefully they fix it soon
To me it’s 23rd, it came on 22nd. Also AWS belongs to Google it seems. I think miui got updated with the latest android security, probably overnight. And the discrepancy between security and AWS might have caused the issues.
I had for both an update that didn’t download automatically, I did it manually and it worked thx
I don’t have Android webview among my installed apps on Google play
Hey thanks for the info! I just updated it & everythings fine now.
It gave me the option to update it. I just uninstalled it anyway.
Saw some articles online that stated that Google fucked up, not xiaomi. Samsung, and other manufacturers had the same issue lately. So updating the aws should solve the issue.
Ребят зайдите play market и удалите Android System Webview и проблема исчезнет
Man am I glad I went to xiaomi sub today to find this. This issue began with the mi cloud sync and would spam me with crash reports and then it spread to other apps. Saved me a headache <3 much appreciated.
edit: my -> me
Worked for me as well, note 8 pro.
Maybe they’ve released a fix today!
Works like a charm thanks !
Yeah worked for me too thanks man you’re a livesaver I had no idea what was happening hope that gets fixed!
Bro, thank u so much, that worked. I really appreciate it. <3
My husband had the same issue with Gmail and a game crashing instantly. Updating ‘Android System Webview’ worked for him. Thank you so much!
for me it’s happening too!! glad but sad to see im not the only one, but now i know it’s probably not specifically my device at least
Same from redmi note 8 pro 🙁
Thanks!!! I guess it has been resolved now, what I did was updating Webview and this solved all the issues
Samee
Apparently there was an issue with Webview. This morning I was browsing reddit on my phone, when I opened a wiki page inside the app with Webview it crashed and kinda f ed up my other apps. Google issued an update for Chrome and Webview today to fix it
Uninstalling Android System Web View worked for me! I searched it in PlayStore and unmarked automatic update too
Thank you it worked
someone else told me to uninstall chrome and that seemed to work
For me i did not have to delete the android system webview. i just updated it and then i was able to get tiktok to work again.
Same error on several major apps -_-
Thanks so much, updating the app works btw, no need to uninstall it.
Redmi note 8 pro user here, same thing is happening to me
Same
it worked uninstalling it or updating to a new version?
Samee , redmi note 8 pro user, apps keep crashing idk what’s happening . I hope they fix this cuz rn my phone is useless

Top comment in this thread fixed it for me. Uninstall Android web view
I’m on miui11 also
Thanks, you saved me!
this comment was deleted by user
For those of you who can’t find android system webview, uninstall updates for chrome did the trick for me. Hope that helps!
It doesn’t even allow me to disable MSA anymore.
Not sure what is used for, but in my case i just had an update to it (android system webview). Updating it solved the issues, no need to uninstall it. Thanks for the solution.
thanks so much!! a few apps and even my keyboard started crashing
Thank you so much! Updating this seems to have fixed the issues.
why dont you uninstall that cancer app ?
Ok, she did this and the first time she opened an app it would work, but in the second the error came back :((
Thank you, had the same problem, and it’s worked
Thank you very much you save me
Same to me with Redmi Note 8T, do you guys have MIUI 11 or 12? Cause if you still have 11 like me we might need to wait for the update
Worked for me too ! .. ty
Well you have one happy person who is very thankful for your good memory lol. Definitely one of the first scary bugs I’ve experienced on my device in the 2 or so years I’ve owned it.
Spent the past couple days trying to figure out what suddenly changed lmao and never thought to check installed updates.
So once again, thank you very much!
Thank you so much
YOU ARE THE FKING BEST my google kept crashing including some other apps and the second I uninstalled it it worked! THANK YOUUUU
will this fix work if the MI keyboard keeps crashing?
Wait, what is MSA? And why is it bad?
That doesn’t even show up for me under installed apps (redmi note 8 pro), yet half my apps won’t even work. wtf?
amigo cual fue tu respuesta para resolver el problema? actualizar esa aplicación que dijiste en la play store o desinstalarla? que hago actualizo o desinstalo o alguien que me diga que hacer por favor, me falla gmail, la aplicación de música, archivos y unos juegos de game turbo PORFAVOOOOOOOR¡¡¡
tiktok? thats kinda gay
Uninstalling Android System Webview solved the issue for me…
Edit: look in Google Play -> Installed Apps -> Search for ‘Android System Webview’. If you don’t have it try uninstalling Chrome.
Edit 2: looks like there is an updated Android System Webview package in the Play Store now. Instead of deleting it might now make more sense to update to the latest version. I’m trying it now… wish me luck!
amigo también tengo un poco x3 que hiciste para arreglar el problema? se me esta cerrando gmail, musica, archivos, algunos juegos de game turbo, entre otras cosas el MSA también que hagooooo ayudameeeee porfavor¡¡¡
This keeps happening and msa has stopped working why this started today Ive done nothing to my phone redmi note 8 pro
Gotcha, thanks for the help anyways!
Update for WebView ist out, Google fixed it!
[it’s because of android system webview](https://www.xda-developers.com/google-confirms-webview-issue-crashing-android-apps)
Thanks bro 😍😍
Thanks, worked for me too..
Same here on mi10t
Happening to me too, with Reddit is Fun as well as Gmail and some others
Thank you i solved reinstalling Chrome on a xiaomi redmi note 5
xiaomi give me my money back
The same thing happened to me today on some apps. Reboot and fixed.
Thank you, Sir!!
Thank you so very much man, solved the issue for me.
Yes this was happening to me as well
Thank you!!
Thank you, appreciate it
Hi, have a Xiaomi Redmi Note 8 with the same issue. But I can see the Android System WebView on PlayStore Instaled App. Also I can see Android System WebView on Developers Options > WebView Implementation but I can’t do any action with that. Also I can’t uninstall chrome is protected by system.
thanks dude,.
Same 😐
Mesma coisa aqui
Я не понимаю что с приложениями Я сервисами google play выдаёт постоянно ошибку не знаю что делать все варианты исправить ситуацию перепробовал нечего не помогает. у меня как и у большинства redmi 8 pro и проблема началась тоже пару часов назад исправления проблему по быстрее.
Same here… phone entirely unusable since today early morning. What could trigger this? I don’t see any relevant update.
Also, interestingly enough, I get a message that MSA (Xiaomi’s creepy preinstalled ad service) keeps on crashing whereas I had disabled MSA months ago already! Sneaky…
Thank you redditers! I was scared af because I didn’t know what’s goig on, until now. Somebody now’s what’s is happening?
Mismo problema con Xiaomi note 8 pro
Thank you so much! The uninstalling worked ! So strange that this suddenly occured for the device, wondering if this is xiaomi or google screwing up here 🤔
Anyways thanks so very much !
You do know that the issue is not with MIUI right? lol.
Glad it helped! I had the same thing happening 1-2 years ago… and remembered the solution from back then! Xiaomi’s QA processes leave much to be desired…
Anyone know how to fix this. Can’t use half of my apps
Couldn’t run Sync for Reddit few hours ago.
Uninstalling updates for Android System WebView seems to fix the issue.
Clear data and restarting phone didnt help.
Google Play shows an update is available but it was stuck at “Pending” – so cancelled that and then uninstalled updates for the app (taking the app to factory state).
Restarted and Sync for Reddit app started working again.
Try and uinstall the updates and whatch then what happens
That worked!!!! Thank you!
mi 10 t pro user here. miui12. apps wont even launch or launch and after i close them they dont even open..its fucking scary considering the thing i bought the phone a month ago
