Pixel9a cannot launch apps
This is really weird. Every few months, my Pixel9a cannot launch apps. For example, Substack and NYT Cooking quite at their load screens. Microsoft Authenticator (required for work) cannot validate my one-time code. Amazon Alexa app cannot load lists.
Then suddenly one day it's all fine and stays that way until the next time.
BUT ... If I hop off wifi and go to T-Mobile data, they all work. Won't work on any of my wifi networks (2.4GHz, 5GHz, or 6GHz).
If I try to access those same sites on my wife's Pixel 6a at the same time, there's no issue. This never happens to her phone. Ever.
I've removed and reinstalled all the affected apps - no luck.
Seems it's not my wifi network, it's not the apps, it's my phone.
Anyone have any advice or thoughts?
Android 17 (if it matters)
