When Google Chrome keeps crashing on your OnePlus 15, browsing becomes almost impossible. Pages close on their own, tabs reload unexpectedly, or the app refuses to open at all. This problem usually comes from app data issues, outdated software, or temporary system conflicts, and most of the time, it can be fixed in a few minutes.
Why Google Chrome Keeps Crashing on Your OnePlus 15
- Corrupted cache or app data inside Chrome.
- An outdated version of Google Chrome.
- Android system updates not fully applied.
- Conflicts with other apps or background processes.
- Low available storage or memory pressure.
1. Restart Google Chrome
Chrome can crash if a background process gets stuck. Restarting the app forces it to reload everything cleanly, which often stops random crashes.
Open the Recent apps screen, and then swipe Chrome away.
Open Google Chrome again, and try browsing for a few minutes.
2. Clear Chrome Cache
Over time, cached files can become corrupted. Clearing the cache removes temporary data without deleting bookmarks or saved passwords.
Open Settings, and then tap Apps.
Tap Chrome, and then tap Storage and clear the cache.
3. Update Google Chrome
Older versions of Chrome may not work properly with newer Android updates. Updating the app installs bug fixes that improve stability and performance.
Open the Play Store, and then tap your profile icon.
Tap Manage apps and device, and then update Google Chrome if available.
4. Restart Your OnePlus 15
A full device restart refreshes system memory and background services. This helps when Chrome crashes are caused by temporary system glitches.
Press and hold the Power key, and then tap Restart.
Wait for the phone to boot up fully, and then open Chrome again.
5. Check for System Updates
Chrome depends on core Android components to function properly. If your phone is running outdated system software, app crashes may occur more frequently.
Open Settings, and then tap System.
Tap Software updates, and then install any available updates.
6. Free Up Storage Space
Low storage can cause apps to behave unpredictably. Chrome may crash if your phone does not have enough space to store temporary browsing data.
Open Settings, and then tap Storage.
Delete unused apps or files, and then make sure you have free space available.
7. Reset Chrome App Data
If crashes continue, Chrome’s app data may be corrupted. Resetting it restores the app to its default state.
Open Settings, and then tap Apps.
Tap Chrome, and then tap Storage and clear data.
Google Chrome crashing on the OnePlus 15 is usually tied to software issues rather than hardware problems. Once you refresh the app, update the system, and clear corrupted data, Chrome should run smoothly again.
FAQs
Will clearing Chrome data delete my bookmarks?
Yes, if you are not signed in. If your Google account is synced, bookmarks and passwords will be restored once you sign back in.
Why does Chrome crash only when opening certain websites?
Some websites use heavy scripts or ads that can overload the browser. Clearing cache or updating Chrome usually fixes this.
Should I use a different browser if Chrome keeps crashing?
You can try another browser temporarily, but Chrome is generally stable on the OnePlus 15. Persistent crashes usually indicate a fixable app or system issue rather than a browser limitation.
