@yaichenbaum I didn't find a debug.txt i think its because it didn't crash or anything, it just didn't open

@DogeLord081 Can you check if resetting the app fixes the issue?

We need to investigate this, being that we can't reproduce this on our end, we can't start working on a fix yet. Can you try updating to v0.21 to see if the issue is fixed?
