Hi, I am facing an issue with my S23 plus. Whenever I try to open any apps, it switchs to home screen after opening the app. Like if I open clock app then it opens up for a sec then it closes on its own and switches to home screen. Not sure why it's happening. I am using Microsoft Launcher as default, not sure if it is causing the app crash. Can any body please suggest what is the issue and how can it be resolved?

Why using Microsoft Launcher, One UI is the best, uninstall Microsoft Launcher and restart your phone, might it help.

Please use the Native One UI launcher as the Microsoft Launcher is nit compatible with many devices and apps.

Third party Launcher always create the problem... Please don't use, it does affects the performance and may have security risk. Use Native OneUI, it is the best...
