So far the only app I’ve encounter a problem with is Myfitnesspal. When first starting the app everything works, but the second time the app won’t finish loading. It gets stuck on the opening screen.
When I clear the storage and cashe it works again, but as soon as I close it and open it again the problem is still there. Is there a solutions other than clearing storage and cashe everytime?

I imagine in AP you have trackers blocked? … or would you care to allow all 16 trackers?
Same issue here. I considered it might be VPN related but it’s just the same with the VPN off. I wonder what trackers need to be ‘allowed’ for it to work as I do find it useful as I can sync MFP with my Garmin Connect account so I’ve not been able to use it for like 2 months now since I got FP6 with eOS.
If it was a tracker thing, should it not block it from the beginning?
Not sure, initial thoughts are ‘not always’… it may only start tracking once logged in and we start logging food. I’ll try it later today and see what I can get working if anything 
Not sure what which app to go with, without paying a shitload. I prefer MFP ue to their large database of food and all the functions I need is free
Thought of just allow MFP to use it’s trackers, since it’s a nice app doing everything I want and need from it
The fact that Clear Storage is a fix suggests that “something” external ?? is crashing the app. Maybe only one or two trackers are critical.
Pleased to report that the only tracker which this app needs is: Google Firebase analytics.
I queried this online and it seems this is what Firebase tracks:
- Device & OS info – model, Android/iOS version, screen size.
- App‑usage events – which screens you visit, how long you stay, actions you take (e.g., adding a food item).
- Error logs – stack traces and context when something goes wrong.
- Anonymous identifiers – a random ID that lets Firebase group sessions together without revealing personal details.
So I think it’s OK in the grand scheme of trackers. The others can remain blocked
I tried turning all the trackers on and then one by one turning them off. I have now all trackers blocked and so far the app works, for now I guess
Unfortunately back to square one for me. Getting hanging loading screen - not really reliable so currently given up with it and deleted the app lol 
The new update caused me back on square one too. But did the same as before and it works again. So I guess for every update I have to redo the dance of turning all trackers on and off if I want to use the app
