App crashes immediately after opening with Android 16 update
-
I updated my Google Pixel 6a to Android 16 and immediately Simple Note stopped working. My widget won’t load anything and the app crashes immediately when I open it. If I delete my data and cache I am prompted in the app to login as usual, but as soon as I’m logged in, the app crashes again.

I updated my Pixel 7 and after it I have now exactly the same issue. I wrote the support, but there is only a answer from a bot with some steps, which didn’t help.

Same for me, Pixel 6 & Android 16. Is there any support left for Simple Note ? Or have we to look for an other App. Any advice for an other simple Text App (for Android AND Windows, important to me)

Hi there,
This is a known issue with Android 16. One work around we have is to remove the widget, which alleviates the crash on launch. We’ve reported it to our engineers, but don’t have an ETA for a fix. Thanks for your patience.

Thanks Lynn for your answer. But the Widget is gone on my screen (might be because I removed / reinstalled the app), so I can’t “remove” it !
-
@michelpinet Thanks for letting us know. We’ll pass it on to our team that the workaround don’t always work.

sorry I did not see the widget workaround. That has worked for me as well. Android 16 Pixel 6a

@michelpinet @stacksbyashley Glad to hear you have the problem resolved.
We appreciate your updates!

@philipplolies I’m afraid we don’t have a fix yet. Removing the widget is still the suggested workaround. We’ll update here when a full fix is available.

Ok thank you, I hope, it wouldn’t take much longer – need this app (and the widget so bad)!
