Technical Issues FAQ
Answers to the most common technical questions about the Alphio app across iOS, Android, web, and H5.
App crashes on startup. Work through this checklist:
- Clear cache from your device settings (iOS Settings → Alphio → Offload / Android Settings → Apps → Alphio → Storage → Clear cache).
- Reinstall the app if clearing cache doesn't help.
- Check OS version — supported versions are iOS 17+, Android 9+, and modern evergreen browsers (Chrome / Safari / Edge / Firefox, recent releases).
- Report it. App crash reports are sent to the team automatically. Add what you were doing and the approximate time on the Feedback page (avatar menu → Feedback on web; the account page in the app).
Web app shows blank screen. A blank screen is usually a stale-asset or cache problem:
- Hard refresh — Ctrl+Shift+R (Windows / Linux) or Cmd+Shift+R (macOS).
- Clear site data for
app.alphio.aiin browser settings. - Try incognito / private mode to bypass extensions and cached cookies.
- If the issue persists, try a different browser to isolate browser-specific bugs and report it via Feedback.
Notifications not arriving. Notifications depend on multiple layers — check each:
- Category toggles in notification settings — confirm the relevant category (AI Trade / AI Alerts / AI Tasks / Square / Newswire / Promotions) is enabled, with the channel you expect (In-app or Telegram).
- Telegram bind status — see /get-started/connect-telegram to confirm the bind is healthy.
- OS-level push permission — iOS Settings → Alphio → Notifications / Android Settings → Apps → Alphio → Notifications must be granted.
- Do Not Disturb / Focus modes — these silently suppress pushes; check your device's DND state.
How do I update the app?
- iOS — update via the App Store. Auto-update can be enabled in Settings → App Store.
- Android — update via the Play Store. Auto-update can be enabled in Play Store → Settings → Network preferences.
- Web app — auto-updates on the next refresh after a new deploy.
- Pages inside the app — some in-app pages are web pages that update on their own. The app checks for a new version when it starts and when you return to it; if you still see the old version, close the app fully and reopen it.
How do I get human support?
- Email — contact@alphio.ai, especially for urgent issues (account compromise, payment incidents, trade execution errors). Send it from your account email and include the order ID if applicable and timestamps.
- Feedback form — the Feedback page (avatar menu → Feedback on web). You submit it while signed in, so the team knows which account it came from; you can attach screenshots. There's no committed response time.
- Ask Alphio AI — product, billing, and account questions can be asked directly in chat; it points you to the right setting or to support.

Why is my view different from a friend's? Alphio uses feature flags for gradual rollouts and A/B tests for some surfaces. Two users on the same tier may see different layouts, copy, or feature availability while a release is ramping up. This is intentional; the surfaces converge once a rollout reaches 100%.
Browser back button isn't working as expected.
Workaround: use in-app navigation breadcrumbs and the dedicated back / close buttons inside the relevant view rather than the browser's native back button.
