While the app has included some measures to prevent a crashing example from crashing the app on launching, however it may still happen.

Here are few ways to recover from that, it is recommended to try in order.

1. Long tap the app icon, and tap "Icon Explorer" in the popup.
2. Clear the app cache and data, then launch the app.
3. Restart the operating system, then launch the app.
4. Re-install the app.

If none of the abover works, please send Direct Message to @RNExplorer.

Please refer to the instructions for How do I recover from crash?.

The obvisous reason is we don't know the package exists, please let us know via @RNExplorer.

Besides that, here is a list of common reasons,

1. The example is outdated / crashing.
2. The example is written in TypeScript.
3. The example depends on Expo.
4. The example requires custom Babel transform.
5. The example requires signup a service to be functional.

This is not a small app, it is over 50MB after unzip and easily occupy more than 150MB cache. The startup time is particluar long for cold start.

Some packages requires setup during the app initilization stage, it adds delay too.

The current version have already applied some optimizations on loading the exmaples. We love to learn more optimization techniques if you have any to share.
