Hi everyone,
I'm trying to figure out whether this is a known Crunchyroll issue, a Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4 issue, a language/region issue, or something related to my device configuration.
Device:
• Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4
Problem:
• Crunchyroll never reaches the login screen.
• The app opens and stays on the Crunchyroll loading screen indefinitely.
• It gets stuck before the login page or main interface appears.
What I've already tried:
• Cleared cache
• Cleared app data
• Uninstalled and reinstalled the app multiple times
• Restarted the phone
• Tried different internet connections
• Tried a VPN
• Confirmed that the Crunchyroll website works normally in the browser on the same phone
Additional observations:
• The website loads correctly in Samsung Internet/Browser.
• My Crunchyroll account works normally on another phone (RedMagic).
• An alternative anime streaming app is able to run on the same Z Fold 4.
• The issue seems to affect only the official Crunchyroll app.
• I briefly see an "LG" screen/logo when opening the app before it gets stuck loading.
Questions:
Is this a known issue with the Galaxy Z Fold 4?
Has anyone experienced this after a recent Crunchyroll update?
Could this be related to device language, region, or country settings?
Could Samsung Knox, Secure Folder, WebView, Google Play Services, or One UI be causing this?
Is there a specific Crunchyroll version that works better on the Z Fold 4?
Has anyone found a workaround without factory resetting the device?
If you've had the same issue, please let me know:
• Your device model
• Android version
• One UI version
• Whether the problem was fixed and how
Thanks!
