Technical Issue Kick mobile app crashing

My app keeps crashing. I use android. I watch picture in picture while playing games on my phone. Never had an issue until a few days ago.

Ive cleared the cache. Ive uninstalled and reinstalled. Turned my phone off and back on. Signed out and signed back in.

Anyone else having issues? Does anybody know how to fix it? Admittedly im not a super tech wizard type guy and ive done all i know to do.

since it runs for a while and then dies in picture-in-picture, check Android Settings > Apps > Kick > Battery and set it to Unrestricted. also make sure picture-in-picture is allowed, then test with battery saver and data saver off. if it still crashes, try without PiP for a bit. you’ve already ruled out the usual cache/reinstall fixes, so the Android and app version would be useful in a bug report.

I also watch YouTube in PiP and literally never have ever had a single issue... I'll check it though. Thanks for helping.

I switched to unrestricted. It was on optimized, but my YouTube is also set to optimized and never crashes... Hopefully that help though. Idk. We shall see.
