App Issues
Targeted troubleshooting for client-side issues 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+.
- Check device storage — extremely low storage can cause crashes; free up some space.
- Report it. App crash reports are sent to the team automatically. Add what you were doing and the approximate time on the Feedback page.
If a specific action consistently triggers the crash, note the steps in your report — reproducible crashes are far easier to fix than intermittent ones.
Web app shows blank screen. Blank screens are usually a stale-asset or cache issue:
- 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.
- Disable ad-block / privacy extensions on
app.alphio.ai— they sometimes break app shells. - Try a different browser to isolate browser-specific bugs.
If the issue persists across browsers, file a report via Feedback with the browser, OS, and approximate timestamp.
Push notifications not arriving. Push depends on several layers — check each:
- Category toggles in notification settings — confirm the relevant category (AI Trade / AI Alerts / AI Tasks / Square / Newswire / Promotions) is enabled for In-app.
- 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.
- Telegram bind status — for Telegram-routed alerts, confirm the bind is still healthy by checking Connect Telegram.
- Battery optimization (Android) — aggressive battery savers can kill background notification listeners. Whitelist Alphio.
If all of the above check out and pushes still don't arrive, file a report with the last time you successfully received one and the device model / OS.
Slow performance / lag. Performance issues are usually narrow:
- Heavy chart or chat history — long sessions with many charts / messages can slow the page. Refresh to reset state.
- Background tabs — many open Alphio tabs share state; close extras.
- Mobile RAM pressure — close other heavy apps; reboot the device if needed.
- Network — slow / lossy network causes loading delays that look like lag. Test on a different network.
If a specific surface is consistently slow on a healthy device + network, file a report including the surface, device, OS, and a description of what feels slow.
Can't update via App Store / Play Store. Update failures are usually store-side:
- App Store / Play Store cache — sign out and back in to the store, or clear its cache (Android: Settings → Apps → Play Store → Storage → Clear cache).
- Country / region — Alphio may not be available in every store region; if you changed regions, your store entitlement may not match.
- Old OS version — newer Alphio builds require newer OS versions. Update the OS first.
- Storage / network — large updates need both. Free up space and use Wi-Fi.
If the store shows the update available but it won't install after multiple retries, the next-best path is uninstall + reinstall (you'll need to log in again afterwards). Your account state lives server-side, so reinstall doesn't lose data.
A page inside the app still shows the old version. Some pages in the app are web pages that update separately from the app itself. The app checks for a new version when it starts, when you return to it, and before opening such a page; a downloaded update applies the next time the page loads.
- Close the app fully and reopen it.
- On mobile web (in your phone's browser), refresh the page.
- If you still see the old version after a restart, update the app from the App Store or Play Store — some page updates need a newer app version.
If it persists, send a report with your app version and a screenshot of the page.
