Lemon8 is the newcomer to social media — ByteDance’s latest app, designed to appeal to Instagram and Pinterest users looking for “beautiful, authentic, and diverse” content.
You are not alone if you want to use TikTok’s parent company’s latest app to reach the western world. While the Chinese version of Lemon8 has been around for a while, it’s only recently made its way to the US, where the TikTok community is happily jumping into an app that describes itself as a cross between Instagram and Pinterest.
Designed to appeal to a “teenage community” looking for “beautiful, authentic, and diverse” content, Lemon8 is cute and aesthetically pleasing.
But it doesn’t matter how Nice to have an app to look at when it keeps crashing. Please read on to find solutions to the most common issues encountered with the Lemon8 app.
Why does Lemon8 keep crashing?
Connection issues are most common with any service that requires an internet connection to stream or view content. That goes for apps like Lemon8 or TikTok, which connect to the internet to populate your feed. Make sure your phone or tablet is not in airplane mode and that your WiFi or data connection is stable.
If you are accessing Lemon8 through a web browser, your next step should be to refresh the page using your browser’s “Reload” button. Try restarting your browser or accessing Lemon8 from a different browser to see if the problem persists. Like Instagram, Lemon8 can be used in a web browser, but the platform is designed for a mobile device, so your mileage may vary based on browser functionality.
Closing and restarting Lemon8 often fixes the problem. If it doesn’t, the next step should be to restart your device, especially if it’s been a while since the last time you did this. A simple restart often fixes most issues that an app relaunch can’t solve.
