TL;DR<\/p>\n
Google rolled out the October Pixel update<\/a> just last week, but it\u2019s not going down smoothly for Pixel 10 owners. Users are reporting random app crashes after installing the update, with multiple threads<\/a> on Reddit<\/a> pointing to the Pixel 10 Pro as the most affected model. Since the update is still reaching more devices, it\u2019s possible the issue extends to the standard Pixel 10 as well.<\/p>\n Don\u2019t want to miss the best from Android Authority?<\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cAfter the October update, all apps have started to crash randomly or just get stuck at the splash screen. I\u2019ve tried multiple reboots, but still the same issue,\u201d the original poster wrote.<\/p>\n Several others have chimed in with similar experiences on their Pixel 10 Pro units.<\/p>\n \u201cI just started experiencing this yesterday. It is frustrating. If an app does open and load it won\u2019t let me touch anything and it crashes,\u201d another user complained.<\/p>\n The thread is filling fast with new reports of users struggling with constant app crashes following the update.<\/p>\n Amid the frustration, one user claims to have found a temporary workaround that worked for some people, though it isn\u2019t an ideal fix.<\/p>\n \u201cThe solution I found was to update to the Android OS October update, then uninstall the Google Play Services and Google Play Store updates. Uninstalling the Play Services update will sign you out of your Google account(s) on your phone, so make sure you have secondary passkeys set up for your accounts before doing this. No crashes since doing this. My running theory is that the October Play Services update is clashing with the September Android OS update in some way,\u201d the user explained.<\/p>\n While this may fix your Pixel 10\u2019s app crash problems, uninstalling updates for Google Play Services and the Play Store could disrupt key phone functions or cause other issues. Also, it\u2019s not something that\u2019s worked for everyone, with some folks reporting<\/a> that app crashes returned despite the Play Services data wipe.<\/p>\n Google hasn\u2019t officially commented on the problem yet, but given how widespread the reports are becoming, a bug fix should be issued soon. Until then, if you have a Pixel 10 series phone, you might want to wait and watch before installing the October update.<\/p>\n![\"google](\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/google_preferred_source_badge_light@2x.png\"\/ "\\"google"){kind=icon}
