Update: this issue is triggered regardless of how you are trying to access "App info". Whether you long press the app icon or you go to Settings -> Apps -> <any app>, App Info won't launch.
Users cannot manage their app settings at all with this crash.
This is happening on the latest beta SPB4.210715.011. Pixel 3.

On the first beta 4 release App info was working for me. I updated to 4.2 and now it does not work.

* I tried to download and reinstall the Settings apk and Google Play Services apk with no success.
* I tried accessing the App Info page in Safe Mode and it didn't work either.
* I tried apps like SD Maid and App Mgr III (both have ability to clear Cache) and they would just loop and freeze.
The only true fix was to factory reset the phone which I did last night.

@19 If you've updated from Android 11, I think you should have created a new report. This one is for the beta. Maybe you should still create a new one, but sadly you can't show it anymore, and can't take bug-report file...

@21 The weird thing is that I had this issue too, but ever since beta 5 it never crashed for me anymore . I have other issues that existed on the beta for much longer (related to recent-tasks), but not about app-info.
Report it here:
If you indeed can reproduce this issue, take a bug report and a video of the issue and show them that it still occurs, and also put a link to here, saying that it wasn't fixed even though you are on latest, official version of Android
