How to Fix Samsung Galaxy S5 App Freeze Problems:
For those Samsung Galaxy S5 users who are facing App crash or App freeze related issues, one possible cause can be that you are using an older version of the app that is not compatible with your device. The solution to this is to update the app by going to Google Playstore>My Apps. Or you can remove and reinstall the app on your device.

Some of the apps that you install through Google Play store require storing data on your device’s SD card. One problem that may cause the apps to not work properly is due to a broken, damaged or defective SD card that does not let the apps pull out stored data. If an app is not working as required due a defective SD card, you can try to replace the SD card with another one after uninstalling the app. Now reinstall the app on your device.
If your Samsung Galaxy S5 is running on Android Lollipop, it might not be able to support some of the apps from Google Play Store. These are the apps that are developed to run on another version of Android like Kitkat. If you find this to be a reason why your app freezes or crashes, you can ask the App developer to resolve the issue for you.
