Mobile app barcode scanner crashes on literally every other scan
When I use the IMAGE SEARCH / barcode scanner on my LG K8 Android phone, I can scan the first item but when I scan the second item I get the error: UNFORTUNATELY, EBAY HAS STOPPED / REPORT OK.
If I click on REPORT or OK, I can scan an item and get a result but when I scan a second item, eBay app crashes again.
I can also scan item/manually type search item, scan item again without it crashing.
Should not have to switch back and forth or scan/report to prevent crashes.
So I scan, get 1st result, scan 2nd item, CRASH, report, scan item, scan second item,CRASH.
I've report via the app dozens and dozens of times over the last 4 months.
I've uninstalled re-installed the app, cleared cache, cleared data, logged out, logged in, etc.
Still continues to crash.
LG K8
Model Number LGUS375
Android Version 6.0
Build Number MRA58K
Software Version US3751c
eBay ID = monkeystein
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

I no longer have that example exampl. Try this one, report submitted around 12:42 PST for UPC 024543639602
Thank you. We are trying to get this to happen on a similar android OS as yours. We are able to scan 50+ barcodes with no issues. Do you know how much memory your phone has?

Phone memory:
Internal storage = 8GB. Total used, 7.35GB of 8.00GB
SD Card = 117GB. Total used, 725MB of 117GB
The eBay app Version 5.38.0.14 is on the SD card with 137MB used in External Storage (SD Card).
I've cleared cache, data, logged back onto the app, etc..
Error continues to occur.
I scanned the above UPC just a few minutes ago, app crashed on the second scan.
Report set thru the app.
Thanks again for for continuing to look into this.

Thank you for these details. We are wondering it it might be due to the app running on the SD card. We will investigate this further.

Do you mean App permissions?
Camera was on, Storage & Your Location were off.
All 3 permissions are now on.
Cleared app cache again then opened app after all permissions are turned on.
Scanned the above UPC 024543639602 a few minutes ago.
once again, first scan is fine & shows search results.
Second scan crashes the app. App crash report sent in again as well.

Thanks for trying. There are actually locks you can set in the filter options when you are searching. It sounds like you do not use those.
Is there anyway you could get the app onto your device instead of the SD card? We would like to rule that out as a possible cause of this.
Thanks

It was on internal storage until today, when you asked about storage, I then transferred it to the SD card.
The "Unfortunatel, eBay has stopped." error occurred both when it was on the device internal storage and when it was on the SD card.

eBay Android App continues to crash when scanning more than one consecutive barcode.
As stated above, have done as suggested, moved app to SD card, have cleared cache / data / reinstalled using latest app, etc.
Problem has been going on for close to a year now.
