Google Apps Crashing

[1984world]

Hello. I have a Pixel XL 128 GB, purchased directly from Google. I'm on the 7.1 software. Recently (hard to nail down the exact date) several google apps began to crash. As of now, it is ONLY google apps, and only some of them. Apps crashing are : google photos, gmail, and "ok Google" assistant crashes when I attempt to use it. The Google app itself works, but as soon as I attempt the voice control, it crashes the app. I am rooted as well. I've rebooted and cleaned the google services, photos, and gmail caches with no relief from this problem.

Any ideas? I love my phone and really want to fix this problem!

Thanks all.

I have had this happen on other phones and I have been able to fix it by logging out of my Google account, wiping cache in settings-storage then rebooting and logging back into my account. I have never lost any data this way. Your mileage may vary, hope it fixes it for you.

Long shot, but maybe these are related?

Did you try clearing cache of those apps and logout of your Google account?

Ok, thanks for all the replies. I cleared the caches, all the history, etc. I also uninstalled all updates for the offending apps. Another weird thing I noticed is that Instagram also crashes the same way. But not OG+ (another instagram client) that seems to work just fine. It's weird that I can voice search from the Google app directly, and it doesn't crash, but when i use assistant, it crashes. I also deleted all google accounts, cleared caches, rebooted, and upon restarting, same issue. Any other suggestions? I'm at a bit of a loss here, and don't know why it is doing this.

I have the same problem. I get "Unfortunately, Whatsapp has stopped working" message and my app crashing while trying to open the message. I tried everything like factory reset, clear cache etc. but I'm not able to get rid of this problem. I'm also using Google Pixel smartphone.
