The app is running slowlyUpdated 2 months ago
Quick Fix
Close all other apps running in the background, then restart the CENTR app. This frees up memory and improves performance immediately.
Close Background Apps
For iPhone
- Swipe up from the bottom of your screen and pause
- You'll see all your open apps
- Swipe up on each app to close them
- Open only the CENTR app
For Android
- Tap the Recent Apps button (square icon or swipe up and hold)
- Swipe away all apps or tap "Close All"
- Open only the CENTR app
Additional Performance Solutions
Solution 2: Restart Your Device
Restarting clears memory and stops unnecessary background processes.
- Power off your phone or tablet completely
- Wait 10 seconds
- Power back on
- Open CENTR (don't open other apps first)
Solution 3: Check Available Storage
Low storage causes apps to run slowly. You need at least 500MB free space.
iPhone:
- Go to Settings > General > iPhone Storage
- Check available space at the top
- If low, delete unused apps, photos, or videos
- Offload unused apps (tap app > "Offload App")
Android:
- Go to Settings > Storage
- Check available space
- Tap "Free up space" to clear cached files
- Delete unused apps, photos, or videos if needed
Solution 4: Clear App Cache (Android Only)
Clearing cache removes temporary files that can slow down the app.
- Go to Settings on your Android device
- Tap "Apps" or "Applications"
- Find and tap "CENTR"
- Tap "Storage"
- Tap "Clear Cache" (NOT "Clear Data")
- Open CENTR again - performance should improve
Note for iPhone users: iOS automatically manages cache. You can't manually clear it, but deleting and reinstalling the app achieves the same result (see Solution 6).
Solution 5: Check Internet Connection
Slow internet makes the app appear sluggish when loading content.
- Run a speed test at fast.com
- You need at least 5 Mbps for smooth performance
- Switch from mobile data to WiFi if available
- Move closer to your WiFi router
- Restart your WiFi router if speed is slow
Solution 6: Update the App
Newer versions include performance improvements.
iPhone:
- Open App Store
- Tap your profile icon
- Update CENTR if available
Android:
- Open Google Play Store
- Tap your profile icon > "Manage apps & device"
- Update CENTR if available
Solution 7: Delete and Reinstall
Reinstalling clears all cached data and gives you a fresh start.
Important: Your workout history, progress, and subscription are safe in the cloud. Reinstalling won't delete your data.
iPhone:
- Press and hold CENTR app icon
- Tap "Remove App" and confirm
- Restart your iPhone
- Reinstall from App Store
- Log in with your credentials
Android:
- Go to Settings > Apps > CENTR
- Tap "Uninstall" and confirm
- Restart your device
- Reinstall from Google Play Store
- Log in with your credentials
