Pixel Testers Say Android 16 QPR3 Beta Still Crashes Microsoft Apps After Claimed Fix
Reports describe persistent failures that vary by device and profile, with no fresh guidance from Google.
Overview
- Google’s QPR3 Beta 2 release notes said the Microsoft app crash bug was resolved, including fixes tied to Intune-managed setups.
- New posts on Reddit and Google’s Issue Tracker say Teams, Outlook, the Windows app, and Microsoft Launcher still crash on several Pixel models.
- Some testers see failures only in work profiles, while others report crashes across personal profiles or no issues at all.
- One user reports success after enabling Android System WebView, though many recommend rolling back to the stable Android 16 build to restore reliability.
- Google acknowledged the problem previously, but the most active Issue Tracker threads show no recent updates or timeline for a comprehensive fix.
