WHY DOES THE NIGHTHAWK APP CRASH BEFORE IT EVEN OPENS?
Is anyone else having problems with the NightHawk App? I can't even get mine to open before it crashes. Has anyone figured out how to fix this issue? I have uninstalled it and re-installed it and it still crashes. I can't get my extender connected throught WPS and the NightHawk app is crashing everytime I try to open it. I am beyond frustrated with the lack of help from Netgear.

There is an alternate installation process not requiring WPS or this App - consult AC1750 WiFi Mesh Extender Model EX6250v2 User Manual p.13 ff. "AC1750 WiFi Mesh Extender Model EX6250v2 User Manual"

It used to work fine months ago. Its been a while since I've used it.They broke the Android version, if that is what you use, in a recent update.
It works on some Androids but nit on others. Samsung hardware seems to have been especially hard hit.
