"Hold on while we reinstall your app" message flashing on infotainment screen?

[Mirage_Man]

So this message has been flashing on my screen now for about an hour. I can't get it to stop. Anyone else have this issue?

Tried disconnecting the battery for about half an hour... Didn't work. 

 

Looked around in the menu system and found "running applications". I turned off everything it would let me and the message went away. Something must have gotten hung up. Restarted the truck and no message. 

 

Hope this helps someone.

Is there any way for an owner to tell if their truck already does or doesn’t have this update?

Yes. Mine just started doing this.

Mine started this yesterday. Fiddled with the settings with no luck.

Am I missing something?

I drive a 2020 traverse and mine just started this as well. Have you found out how to fix it? I’ve tried everything I can think of.

Same, just started yesterday with a 2021 Suburban! Still ongoing and nothing has fixed it so far

My 2021 GMC Yukon started this yesterday and I cannot figure out a fix for it. Very frustrating.

I also have a 2020 Traverse and mine started flashing this yesterday and hasn’t stopped.

I had the same issue and fixed. Go into the Home Screen swipe over to Apps. Click on My Apps. I deleted Spotify and Alexa. That did the trick. You may have other apps trying to update that you may have to delete to fix.

Same here.  Just this Wednesday.

My 2020 Sierra started doing this Thursday and I’ve deleted Alexa and Spotify and no change. It comes on when I start truck and then goes away. Everything is working. I’m afraid to delete SiriusXM or an app I use cuz not sure u can get it back.
