Crash and performance fixes for Staylane
Stabilised a React Native app with a 94% crash-free rate and poor store reviews. A case study by Ryan Mitchell, Senior Android Engineer (Kotlin).
Challenge
The app of Staylane, a boutique hotel group, crashed for one in twenty sessions after a major update. Ratings dropped to 3.1 stars and the team was stuck on other work.
Solution
I triaged crash reports, fixed the top twelve crashes, upgraded outdated native modules, added error boundaries and improved list performance on older Android phones.
