Various reasons may cause the problem with crashes and freezes, and our developers are doing their best to optimize the game throughout updates.

Please try the following steps, even if you have tried some of them already. Sometimes, it helps make the device and the game perform better.

 

1. Swipe away all your apps running in the multitasking bar.

 

2. Restart your device. Sometimes, this is enough to fix an issue.

 

3. Make sure you update the game to the latest version. Open the Google Play store on your device > Menu > My Apps & Games > find Idle Outpost > tap the Update button. If your game is up-to-date, you will see the Open button.

 

4. Make sure that you have enough free space on your device:
- Open your device's Settings app.
- Scroll down and touch Storage & USB.
- You'll see a breakdown of how your storage is being used.

 

You should have at least 20% of free space on your device out of the total for the game to perform smoothly. If your storage is almost full, it may cause issues.

 

5. Force quit the game:
- Open your device's Settings app.
- Tap Apps.
- Choose Idle Outpost from the list.
- Tap Force stop.

 

6. Clear the game cache (IMPORTANT: Do not clear the data, you will lose the progress. Clear cache only, please.):
Open your device Settings > Apps & Notifications > Idle Outpost (If you don't see it, first tap See all apps or App info.) > Storage & Cache > Clear cache.

 

7. Ensure that your Internet connection is enabled and you have a stable signal (for example, you are not far from your modem if you use Wi-Fi).
