Hello, Everyone. 

It appears a recent update has caused a situation that's causing applications to crash. As soon as we were made aware of the situation, we have jumped on this and was able to find a resolution. 

These Steps should do the trick. 

  • Go To Settings
  • Tap "Apps"
  • look for "Android System Web View" 
  • Select "Uninstall Updates"

If you do not see an uninstall option please try uninstalling the app from the Play store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.webview

You can also Uninstall Chrome Updates, if needed, this seems to be a resolution as well if you do not see an option on WebView.
