Gapps / Google Apps are Crashing ?
Three possible reasons
[1] You forgot to do a "factory reset" in the recovery before installing the entire ROM.
[2] You installed an incompatible Gapps Package with your android version , if your andorid version is 5.1 then use Gapps for android 5.1 also if your andorid verion is just 5.0 then use Gapps for android 5.0
[3] You tried to install multiple Gapps packages on the system (you have to format the entire '/system'
partition & re-install the ROM again to get the next gapps package work).
-If only one app is crashing then go to the settings,apps,find that app there,tap on it, click "clear data". then try to reopen that app.
