Check Your Internet Connection

Ensure you have a stable internet connection. Try browsing the web or using other apps that require internet access. If other apps are also experiencing issues, your internet connection is likely the problem.

    • Restart your router and modem.
    • Check your internet service provider (ISP) for outages in your area.
    • Test your internet speed using a speed test tool.

Restart the X App

Closing and reopening the X app can often resolve temporary glitches. This simple step can refresh the app's connection and clear any minor issues.

    • On iOS: Swipe up from the bottom of the screen to open the app switcher, then swipe up on the X app preview to close it.
    • On Android: Open the recent apps view, then swipe the X app to the side to close it.

Clear the X App Cache and Data

Clearing the cache and data can resolve issues caused by corrupted files. Note that clearing data will remove your saved settings, so you may need to log back in.

  • How to Clear Cache and Data:
    • Android: Go to Settings > Apps > X app > Storage > Clear cache, then Clear data.

Ensure you have the latest version of the X app installed. Updates often include bug fixes and performance improvements.
