What should we do when Messenger stops on our devices?
When Messenger has stopped, it is best to go to solve the possible error that has interrupted the normal processes of the application, otherwise the error may persist and affect data within the application and your Messenger account.

Clear cache
The cache is a non-visible folder that is present within applications and contains files that are saved as the application is used; the cache memory can affect the operation of the application and the performance of the mobile , it is best to delete these types of files.
To delete the Messenger cache, you must enter the application information through settings or by pressing and holding the Messenger icon until you can access the information; In the ‘storage’ section you will see the ‘cache’ option and the ‘delete cache’ option, this will improve the operation of the application .
The cache memory also occupies space within the memory of the mobile, so deleting these files is useful to free up space as well; Whenever you clear an application cache, make sure it is the cache files and not the application information , because you can delete important data such as your account data.
Uninstall and reinstall the app
Errors within Messenger can also be due to a problem in the application, you can uninstall and reinstall the application to make it work again, this time without the files it saved throughout its previous operation.
