However, some fixes are as effective as rebooting your smartphone. So let’s jump right into the article.
Restart your phone
Alright, we all have been there when our smartphones are sluggish or performing very slowly. The very first thing that comes to our mind is Restart. It’s not only an easy-to-do step but also quite effective as it resolves almost every problem associated with smartphones. It cools down a device, frees up RAM and fixes minor glitches that are unseen to your eyes.
To reboot your phone, hold down the power button on either side of your smartphone, and select the Restart option from the screen. This should resolve minor glitches and bugs lurking in your device. However, if this doesn’t resolve your issue, there is something more specific reason that you can find below.
Update your app
Can you locate the Upside stores nearby your location? If not, you need to update your app. If you have an outdated application, chances are you may not be able to use many of the app’s features due to the cut-off of ongoing support by the developer.
However, if you update your app, you’ll be able to use your Upside app as usual.
You will face such problems with an outdated app is very rare. Still, updating your application to the latest versions is recommended to improve its security updates and feature enhancement.
Clean up your Upside Cache.

Android (Android 9 and beyond)
- Launch Settings.
- At the bottom, Tap Applications and permissions.
- Tap App Manager.
- Scroll up & down, Locate and click the Upside app.
- Now, access the Storage.
- Hit Clear Cache & Data to delete Cache.

Force Quit
Is your app stuck on the screen or misbehaving? Simply close your app and relaunch it to fix an issue. Force quitting is the best way to fix the app’s lagging or freezing. If your Upside app runs for hours in the background or foreground without any rest, it can act up or may not respond properly, so Force-quit can help it run smoothly.
However, Force-quit does not impact your device’s performance or battery life; it just declutters the memory space used by the app and loads it fresh.
To force close, go to the recent opened tabs and swipe up on the Upside app and release. Another way around is to go to the settings/Apps & Permissions/App Manager/Upside/Internal Storage/ and tap on the “Force stop” button.
Wait for a while.
Likely, the Upside app servers are down, or the platform is in maintenance mode, so you see an error while logging in or accessing any of its features. There is nothing you can do to fix this issue; all you can do is wait till the app resolves an issue from its end. However, you can follow Upside’s Twitter or Facebook page for recent updates.
Check your WiFi
Experiencing unnecessary slow loading or lags? Your Internet connection may have an issue. A poor internet connection can slow down your app or even restrict you from accessing it. And if you’re in the middle of any transaction, a poor or weak internet can seriously tick you off.
So if your Upside app is, by any chance, not loading, check your WiFi to see if it’s working correctly.
- To make sure your Internet works fine, you can alternatively change your Data connection type from WiFi to your Cellular network.
- Plug out your router, plug it in after a few seconds, and check if it fixes the internet. Or Simply Turn on and off your WiFi to fix a broken wireless network.
Disable VPN
VPN (Virtual Proxy Network) is an excellent way to conceal one’s identity. It provides a unique IP address that allows users to access restricted sites and hide their browsing activities from IPs and hackers.
As for the Upside app, where you use a map to find nearby stores, VPN can be a big hurdle. It’s also possible that your VPN’s firewall is blocking the app, so it’s crucial to disable your VPN.
Block VPN on Android and iOS
- Go to the Settings.
- Search for the VPN option.
- Check how many VPN connections your device is linked to.
- Toggle off your VPN to the not-connected status.
Uninstall/install the app again.
If your app is crashing or not responding the way it should, consider reinstalling it. When you uninstall and install any application, you don’t encounter any issue caused by memory storage or cache. Your app performs way better without causing any performance issues.
When you opt for Reinstalling the application, you can skip cache or force quit steps because re-installation can fix all the issues seeded out of the cache and cluttered disc space.
Contact Support
If you’re still stuck, reach out to the Upside customer service team inside your app and open a conversation. If you cannot access the mobile application, you can shoot them an email. Unfortunenlty, Upside has no phone support for ongoing support.
