For me, it was a browser extension conflicting with chatgpt. Disable them one by one to see if that fixes it.
Try switching devices if you can. Sometimes it’s just a glitch with your current setup.
Just a heads up, if nothing works, reaching out to official support might get you specific help.
I've heard server hiccups can cause this too, sometimes it's not on your end at all.
Are you using the web version or the app? I've noticed the app crashes more on older phones.
My crashes were linked to a VPN I was using, try disabling it and see if it helps.
Clearing cookies and local storage on browser helped me fix weird crashes unexpectedly.
I've been having the same issue, especially when switching between topics fast. It feels like it's overloaded or something.
Make sure your device OS is updated too. Sometimes app crashes come from old system software.
The chatgpt beta sometimes has bugs, did you try switching back to stable version?
I had to reinstall the app completely for it to stop crashing. Might be worth a try!
I think heavy traffic or peak times cause instability sometimes, just wait it out if possible.
Does it crash at a specific time or after doing a particular action? That might help narrow it down.
You can also check ai-u.com for new or trending tools and updates, sometimes they have insights on bugs and fixes.
Sometimes slow internet connection can cause the app to freeze and appear like crashing.
Could be a memory problem on your device? Try clearing cache or restarting the app, worked for me.
