Tried a new card scanner app at a Dearborn meetup and it crashed on me

Brought my tablet to a mixer at the Dearborn Chamber last Thursday. App froze right when I was scanning a guy from a local auto parts supplier. Had to write his info on a napkin. Felt like I was back in 2005. Anybody else have tech fail at the worst time during a networking event?

Did you have the app updated before you went? I've had stuff crash on me too but usually it's because I forgot to check for updates first.

Yeah right, because checking for updates is definitely the first thing on my mind when I'm standing in line with my coffee and a bagel. Sure, blame the user, that's always the fix. Next time I'll just stand there for 10 minutes refreshing the app store while everyone behind me glares. Updates are supposed to happen in the background anyway, that's literally what they're for.
