Chrome is not responding

[John Isner]

I'm running Android 7.0 on a Nexus 9 tablet. The Chrome browser frequently hangs with the message "Chrome is not responding" and gives me a choice to wait or kill the application. Sometimes I need to reboot the tablet. As a result, I avoid Chrome whenever possible, although it seems to be builtin to apps like google news, which does not give me the option to use a different browser. The problem may have existed prior to Android 7.0, but I have certainly noticed it happening a lot since the upgrade. Has anyone else noticed this? What should I do?

Do you have the last version of Chrome from the Store?

 

[John Isner]

Yes, Chrome version 54.0.2480 from the Play Store.

I installed Chrome Beta. In 24 hours the problem has not reoccurred.

So maybe the next official releases will be good on your device.

Thanks for your help!

I've been getting this. Just done a cache wipe/full reboot so will see if it keeps happening now.
