## Troubleshooting
This section addresses common issues users may encounter while using the OpSo app, along with their solutions. If you experience any problems, refer to the list below:
Problem: Users may find that the search function does not return any results.
Solution:
- Ensure that you are entering the correct keywords related to the open-source programs.
- Try clearing the app cache and restarting the app.
- Check your internet connection as the search functionality relies on online resources.
Problem: The filter options do not seem to apply as expected.
Solution:
- Make sure you have selected at least one filter option before clicking apply.
- If the app crashes or behaves unexpectedly, try reinstalling the app.
- Confirm that you have the latest version of the app installed.
- An "all filters" option should be included to easily reset filters.
- Limited Program Listings: The app currently does not cover all available open-source programs. If you are looking for a specific program, check the official websites.
- Network Dependency: The app relies on a stable internet connection for fetching program details and updates. Offline functionality is limited.
If you encounter any issues not listed above, please open an issue on GitHub for further assistance.
