How to Resolve Cash App stuck on the Loading Screen

Check your Internet Connection

A poor internet connection will not only cause the cash app to be stuck on the loading screen but also any other app that needs internet connectivity to run.

So, it’s advised to check if your internet connection is weak or connect to a Wi-Fi connection(or mobile data) and then try logging into your cash app account once more.

Do well to also avoid connecting to public wi-fi connections to prevent your device from being back.

Update your Cash App

Cash App updates are released to fix glitches in previous app bundles but what happens if you’re running on the old version of the Cash app? You’re bound to face errors upon errors until you switch to a stable version of the app.

You can check and download an update to the cash app from either your Play Store or App Store by searching for the app and clicking on the “Update” button to download and install the latest update for the app.

Once you’re on the latest version of the Cash app then you can force close the app and try re-opening the app to see its outcome.

Flush Cash App Cache

Cache stores temporary settings and data on the phone’s storage thereby reducing load times due to the availability of information but what of a case where your data are cached incorrectly?

The best thing to do is to clear your cash app cache from the settings > Apps > Cash App > click on Data and Storage

Click on Clear Cache and proceed to log in to your cash app account once more.

Clear Cash App Data

Clearing an app’s data will make an app look anew as to when you newly installed it to your device thereby removing all login or saved progress on the device.

If the cache clearing doesn’t fix the problem then clearing cash app data should be the next thing to do.

  1. Go to your settings
  2. Navigate to Apps > select Cash App
  3. Click on Data and Storage > Tap on Clear Data

You can then reopen the cash app and try signing in with your account details. This fix has proven to work out most time even with apps other than the Cash App.

Uninstall and Reinstall the Cash App

Another quick fix that might resolve the Cash app stuck to the loading screen loop. Simply go to your Play Store or App Store and locate the app.

Click on the Uninstall button to remove the app from your device and then re-install it after some time.

Check if the Cash App server Is Down

Cash App sometimes runs into issues that’ll cause their server to be down and at this time you might not be able to perform tasks as simple as opening their app.

So, if you’ve tried the above troubleshooting guides and it proved abortive then you should resort to checking if cash app server status to check if it’s down.

You can do that by visiting the status.cash.app on your web browser and you’ll find out.

Restart your Device (Android or iPhone)

A simple restart action can fix this issue by fixing OS glitches, and clearing clogged RAM and processes thereby making space for the cash app to run.

So, you can try to restart your device and see if it resolved the cash app being stuck on the loading screen.

Clear Storage Space

Low memory (such as ROM or RAM) might cause you to encounter difficulties while opening the cash app on your device. So, if you know that you’re device isn’t equipped with much storage capacity you have to clear your storage.

Do well to check for unwanted files movies, junk files, and apps to get rid of to create space for the cash app to run.

After making enough memory space available, try launching the app once more and see how it responds.

Disable or Enable a VPN Connection

Most times, a VPN does block internet access to protect your privacy which is their main job but they might as well stop certain apps from loading properly.

Also, a VPN might help if you’re logging in from a different location and your cash app got stuck to the loading screen or you’re faced with the unable to sign in error.

So, you can either disable or Enable a VPN connection and see if your cash app loads perfectly without any delay.

Check for a device update.

Some cash app updates do come with device requirements which if your device doesn’t meet you’ll likely experience issues while using the previous app.

So, if this is the case then you’ll need to either get a new device or update your device version to the eligible one.

Log in to the cash app on the Web

Another way to try getting into your cash app is by signing in using the Website. Who knows there might be a glitch with their mobile app and there’s no update for it yet.

  • Simply navigate to www.cash.app and click on sign-in
  • Provide your details to log in to your account after you’ve passed all necessary authentications.

That’s it.

You should be able to get into your Cash App except if there’s a Cash App server outage or there’s a possible issue with your Cash App account.

Contact Cash App support

If after trying all of the above-mentioned fixes, your cash app is still stuck on the loading screen then you’ll need to contact cash app support to know the main cause of the issues.

You might be asked to provide information such as your device, location, email address, and other details to run a check on your account if it’s beyond a device check.

You can either contact the cash app via their Twitter handle or email. You can also decide to chat support on the cash app.

Beware of scammers too to avoid becoming victim scammers.

That’s all.

Can I Close my Cash App and Create a New One?

Yes, you can decide to delete your cash app account at any time and create it back at any point you decide to go back to the app.

While you can use the same phone number, and email and also link to the same bank account, you can’t use the same old $cashtag nor will your previous transaction history be restored.

You’ll be set on a fresh journey with a new CashApp history altogether.

Can I have 2 Cash App accounts?

Yes but you can’t link a bank account to two cash app accounts, so you’ll have to create another bank account to link to the other cash app account.

However, you can carry out the day-to-day sending and receiving duties on your cash app account and also make cryptocurrency exchanges if you’ve verified using your driving license or state ID.

Conclusion.

The truth remains that no app including the cash app is perfect so you’ll likely run into errors such as being stuck to the loading screen, requiring you to provide more information to accept this payment, etc.

But whatever the case might be, I hope this article has assisted you in fixing the cash app stuck on the loading screen or crashing error on your Android and iPhone devices.
