1. Move App to Internal Storage
I found it common among those who YouTube used to crash because they did not have the app installed in the internal storage.

2. Update YouTube app
In the technology era, everything revolves too fast, just like Google Web Stories. If you buy something today, it will be outdated in a few weeks. This sounds so true, isn’t it?
Then why are we not updating our apps? Suppose someone has updated their YouTube app and uploaded a video, but if you haven’t updated it yet, it might cause some kind of problem, and the YouTube app will start crashing and keep crashing in a loop.
To fix the YouTube keeps crashing error, you can update your YouTube app, clear the cache, and open it. Now your App won’t crash again.
3. Free Up Storage
If your device has occupied a lot of space of internal or external storage then this could be the problem for all your installed apps, not just for YouTube.
Because all the installed apps that you have installed from the Play Store require some space to run them properly. In other words, the app needs to store more temporary files in your storage, so next time it won’t be loaded but suppose your repository is already full, then the app can’t Store new cache files, so in that manner, it will start crashing.
To free up storage, I have linked here to help you save a lot of space. This article has been treated by more than 7000 people, and all those smart people are now saving their smartphone storage; whether it’s internal or external, it doesn’t matter.
4. Update Your Phone
If you have already updated your Smartphone apps then it’s time to upgrade or update your smartphone software. Even one of my uncles has the same problem. They haven’t updated their smartphones and because of that, this phone starts lagging.
Their smartphones start hanging at the topmost level you can’t even use. You can’t even properly call someone. Then usually, they came to me and asked me what had happened to their phone. And what I did was I just updated their system software, and after updating it, all the problems were solved.
I recommend you update your system software. If you face app crashing issues, you should update your system software. I am linking all the how-to tutorials that you could read here, and I hope you found this useful.
Above all, these steps are the most unique and genuine method you could follow. There are tons of websites on the Internet that are already saying to clear the cache to update the app or whatever it is.
5. Clear Cache
Ok so if you are still facing a YouTube app crash then it means you need to clear the cache.
And we will have a separate tutorial for this. I am linking it here. Just press the button below to read the tutorial. I hope you like this.
Cache generally means the old temporary stored files like a profile picture or your subscription old stored thumbnails of videos. If you have ever noticed that whenever you open a YouTube app without the internet, there are still some videos on your homepage, and their thumbnails show how this is possible. This is just because of their stored cache data.
And the same thing has been used by all the apps to make the opening of the app extremely easy. And also to reduce the data usage.
Conclusion
Many people tried these techniques and worked for themselves, and even I have tried this on 23 smartphones on which YouTube apps start crashing, and this issue can fix all the YouTube errors like YouTube app crash, or YouTube stopped working etc.
