In this video, I'm going to show you how
0:02
you can troubleshoot your CNN news app.
0:05
So, if you're getting a challenge
0:07
opening your app or your app just can't
0:09
respond, maybe it keeps on crashing,
0:11
then let me show you how you can fix
0:13
this problem and get your CNN app
0:16
running without any problem. If you find
0:18
this video helpful, I'll kindly request
0:20
that you support me by liking the video
0:22
and also by subscribing to my channel.
0:24
All right, let's get into it. Now, there
0:26
are quite a number of steps you can take
0:27
to be able to troubleshoot your CNN app.
0:30
In the first method, we're going to
0:32
access our CNN app information page to
0:34
be able to troubleshoot. To do that, go
0:37
to settings. And for this tutorial, I'm
0:39
using an Android smartphone. So, this
0:41
process should be more or less the same
0:42
on any other Android smartphone. Now,
0:45
under this, go ahead and look for the
0:47
option called apps. And here is my apps
0:50
option. Under apps, look for the option
0:52
called manage apps. It might be more
0:54
apps or all apps on your smartphone. And
0:57
then this will go ahead and list all the
0:59
apps that you have on your smartphone.
1:01
Now scroll down until you find your CNN
1:04
app. And as you can see, my CNN app is
1:06
here. I'll go ahead and open it. But if
1:09
you can't find your CNN app, you can
1:11
also use the search option up here to
1:13
locate your app. Once you find it, go
1:16
ahead and tap on it to open. And you are
1:18
on the app information page. This is
1:20
where we shall do our first
1:21
troubleshooting. However, if you are
1:23
finding it hard to get to this page,
1:25
then let me show you a shortcut method
1:27
to get to the app information page for
1:29
CNN app. For that, just go ahead and
1:32
look for your app on your smartphone.
1:34
And then once you find it, just long
1:36
press on it. And now here you can see we
1:39
have these three options, share, app
1:41
info, and uninstall. Go ahead and tap on
1:44
app info, and it will take you to the
1:46
same page. At this point, now we want to
1:48
go ahead and clear the app data. Now
1:51
more especially cache data. Now if I go
1:54
to storage here you can see we have a
1:56
lot of cache data. Now one of the reason
1:58
why your app is malfunctioning is
2:00
because of accumulation of cache data.
2:02
When you talk of cache data we talking
2:04
of small files that your app normally
2:06
stores to enhance your user experience.
2:09
However the problem is when these files
2:11
accumulate they might also be junk and
2:14
then cause your app to malfunction. So
2:16
to clear this junk, go ahead and tap on
2:18
clear data down here. And then choose
2:21
the option called clear cache. Then
2:24
okay. And as you can see, instantly the
2:26
cache data was cleared. At this point,
2:29
go ahead and restart your smartphone and
2:31
then open it to see if that has solved
2:33
your problem. And at this point, you
2:35
should have no issue. However, if this
2:38
problem didn't go away or you're still
2:40
experiencing some challenges, then come
2:42
again to this app information page. And
2:44
at this point, choose the option clear
2:46
all data down here. And okay, now this
2:50
will go ahead and clear all the app data
2:52
and you'll have to login a fresh for you
2:54
to be able to use CNN app. And at this
2:57
point now, every problem should have
2:59
gone. However, if you're still
3:01
experiencing any problem, then you might
3:02
want to go ahead and access the app
3:05
through app store and find out if you
3:07
have any update. For that, we shall need
3:10
to go ahead and access it either through
3:13
App Store if you're on iPhone or Play
3:15
Store if you're on Android. For my case,
3:16
I'm on Android and therefore I'll go
3:18
ahead and open my Google Play Store and
3:21
then just search for CNN. And here you
3:24
can see my CNN app is here. At this
3:27
point, go ahead and tap on update to get
3:30
the latest version of CNN app. So if I
3:33
go ahead and tap on update, this will go
3:36
ahead and download the latest version of
3:38
CNN app and then install it on my
3:41
smartphone. Now once this is done, I'll
3:43
have the latest version of CNN app where
3:46
I can now go ahead and open and start
3:48
reading the latest news from CNN. So
3:51
that's how you can troubleshoot or clear
3:54
any problem with your CNN app. If you
3:57
have any other question, kindly let me
3:59
know in the comment section. Otherwise,
4:00
thanks for watching and let's meet in
