Is anybody able to fix the HP Smart App that keeps on crashing?

Cannot open the app, just keeps on closing. Tried to uninstall and reinstall the app several times now but still nothing works.

We are aware of the issue, our team is working on it.

 

As a temporary workaround, use HP Easy Start to set up the printer on your computer so you can print and scan files.

In Windows, go to 123.hp.com/setup, and then click Install HP Easy Start.

Open HP Easy Start, follow the prompts, and then select Full Software and Drivers as the software solution.

Once the setup completes, the printer is ready to use.

 

Hope this helps!
