After upgrading to Android 16 around 50% of apps fail to load past their splash screen.

I've ensured all apps are up to date.

Any other tips on how to troubleshoot this?

Edit, these are some of the apps that don't open properly:

  • You should edit your post to include which phone you are using (probably a Pixel but which one) and where the OS came from (OTA, flash from file, beta program, etc.) Commented Jul 7 at 13:14

    What have you tried so far? Clearing app cache of affected apps would be first step. Next clearing all app data of an affected app (reset the app). Last would be uninstall and reinstall the app, however there should not be much difference to clearing app data of the app. Commented Jul 7 at 17:26

    Just a guess but as multiple apps are affected it may be related to the 16KB page size, respectively the 4GB compatibility mode for old apps that may not work correctly or is disabled for whatever reason. You need adb to check. execute adb shell getprop bionic.linker.16kb.app_compat.enabled and adb shell getprop pm.16kb.app_compat.disabled to check if compatibility mode is active. IN addition check the AppInfo page of the affected apps. On it's Advanced page there should be an option Run app with page size compat mode. Try to enable it. Commented Jul 8 at 7:14

    Another problem that may be the reason: Android 16 seems to use enhanced TLS security by enforcing OCSP. This would be a likely reason that prevents your apps from working normally: stackoverflow.com/a/79697516/150978 Most likely you need to wait for an updated app or updated server config.
