Why does Facebook Messenger crash frequently?

Question

I am using an Android device (Samsung Galaxy S5) and have noticed that the Facebook Messenger app crashes a lot. Sometimes it crashes when I send a picture or even when I sent a video. Does anyone know why?

Answer 1

It’s hard to really diagnose the problem without looking at the phone itself, but you might want to check the following:

• Make sure it isn’t clashing with other apps installed on your phone
• Make sure you have the latest version of your phone’s OS and of the app itself
• Try not to send too many pictures at once because this does have a tendency of crashing the app (from personal experience)

Hope this helps

Answer 2

There are some possible reasons:

1. Bugs are in this old version.

2. Latest version is still not well-developed.

BTW, video are able to be sent in Facebook messenger, you can also download video from Facebook messenger for future playback.
