Step 2: Run the Matching Tool

Use the dedicated FixThatApp tool to automate initial checks and surface next actions.

Step 3: Validate Configuration and Dependencies

Step 4: Escalate with Useful Evidence

  1. Include screenshots, timestamps, region, and device details.
  2. Attach exact error codes, not summaries.
  3. Include steps already attempted to avoid repeated Tier-1 responses.
