Does anyone own a Samsung Pixel 6a cell phone?

Apps very frequently stop or freeze up.

The camera freezes up the most.

One message says "Google has stopped."

I have to restart the phone around 10 times a day.

Warranty? Something wrong. Don't have that model but have had other
Samsung and never had a problem.

I have an old, inexpensive Galaxy Tab A with only 32 GB of internal
memory. Recently everything I did on it happened extremely slowly or
the tablet froze up until I forced the app involved to close and then
re-opened it. I realized the problem when the Google Play app reported
a list of apps needing updating but rather than offer an "update now"
button, there was a heading reading something like free-up storage
space. When I checked, I was using 28 of the 32 MB. I deleted a few
large apps that I rarely used and the tablet once again responded
briskly. Suggest you check how much of your internal storage remains
available. Unfortunately, add-on SD memory chips can only be used for
data files, despite numerous web sites claiming that apps can be moved
to SD memory and remain functional as well. In my experience, that can
only be done if you unroot your device - not for me thank you. So, I
suggest your problem could be insufficient free internal memory. If
you're keeping loads of photos in internal memory, those can certainly
be moved to the add-on SD card. I admit though that with the Pixel 6a's
128 GB of internal memory, this is less likely to be your problem.

Samsung Pixel 6A? Pixels are from Google, not Samsung. If it's hose like
that I would backup any data you need to a PC via USB, do a system backup
on the phone and then a factory restore. That will wipe out everything on it,
the restore will get it back to it's original software, then it will apply all the
updates. You should do the restore where there is wifi, unless you have
unlimited data.

I do the same on Samsung tablet and phone. Even laptop and desktops get
bogged down with updates.

Might also mention that there is a device care in settings that
optimizes things.

But Officer, I stopped for the last one, and it was green!
