Selected verify data, app crashed and now won't reopen

24.8.1 on Android 12. Everything was fine then selected "verify data" and the app suddenly crashed and the phone said "laptimer closed because this app has a bug. Please update after the developer provides a fix for this issue." Since then if I try opening it it only shows the timer on a grey background for a second and then closes. Periodically it will put up the same "this app has a bug" message.

Not sure if it is relevant but a few minutes prior I had upgraded from petrolhead to grand prix.

Please advise, and thanks!

Hello,

The upgrade is not related to the crash. This is most probably a database problem Verify Data revealed.
To get the app up and running again, the current (corrupted) database needs to be inactivated.
The procedure to do this is described here: viewtopic.php?t=6176

The link over there ("To recover your data, follow instructions in [HOWTO] Restoring Automatic Backups") does not work.

Yes, the forum fails to display certain posts currently. I need to check.
