DoorDash App Keeps Crashing: How to Fix It
The DoorDash app closes on its own — often on the map screen — freezes, or won't stay open long enough to place an order.
Try these in order
- Check your internet connection Turn Wi-Fi off and back on, make sure airplane mode is off, and try switching to cellular data — a strong phone signal often improves the app's connectivity (DoorDash).
- Restart your phone A simple restart clears the temporary glitches behind many DoorDash crashes (DoorDash).
- Force close and relaunch the app Swipe through your recent apps, swipe DoorDash away, then reopen it from your home screen (DoorDash).
- Update to the latest version Go to the App Store or Play Store, search for DoorDash and install any pending update, which includes the latest bug fixes (DoorDash).
- Clear the app's data (Android) Go to Settings > Apps > DoorDash > Storage > Clear Data, then reinstall DoorDash — DoorDash recommends this for crashes caused by a third-party glitch (DoorDash).
- Uninstall and reinstall (iPhone) Delete the app, turn your phone off for 3–5 seconds, then reinstall. You'll be logged out, so have your username and password ready (DoorDash).
- Turn off VPNs DoorDash advises not using a VPN service while troubleshooting connection-related app problems (DoorDash).
Still stuck? Some crashes come from a known third-party glitch that DoorDash is fixing on their end, so try again a little later, and contact DoorDash support if the app is still unusable (DoorDash).
