Remember that during the uninstallation process, the content you downloaded for offline use will also be deleted.<\/p>\n<p>The latest beta issues for the app started on December 30 and there are numerous X\/Twitter reports about the issue stating that the app is completely unusable and unable to open.  \u201cUnlike last time when a crashing issue also hit the app, things don&#39;t stay functional when connecting services like Android Auto.
