Suddenly, the Google app stopped working on my iPhone 12 Pro. It immediately shuts down after attempting to launch the app. I have done multiple hard resets, both with the app still installed and after uninstalling the app. How can I fix this?
My iPhone is running iOS 14.6.

In case anyone else experiences this, I thought I would share the methods I used to resolve the crashing issue. The issue was not a manifestation of updating my iOS back in May. This was a sudden crashing issue.
First, I'd like to clarify that I'm not actually an idiot, and do know that the Google app is not one developed by Apple.
Secondly, I did not need to resort to the draconian measures that were recommended. I actually know how to back up my iPhone to both iCloud and my iMac. I also know how to restore from backup.
My steps (gleaned from an assortment of solutions found via Google searches):
Deleted all Google apps from my iPhone.
Deleted the Gmail account from my iOS Mail app.
Turned off and restarted iPhone.
Added the Gmail account back to my iOS Mail app.
Turned off and restarted iPhone.
Confirmed that Gmail account was functioning properly in the iOS Mail app.
Reinstalled the Google app.

Restore form a Backup:
Have a backup of your iPhone that was made when this was working? If you are not concerned with losing data, then restore your iPhone from the backup. However, if you have no backup, then take this as a learning experience, knowing to always backup your iPhone prior to making any changes to it (i.e. updates) incase anything goes wrong in the future. Important: Back up your iPhone prior to performing this restoration.
Google app is not an Apple product, best you ask the app developer on their website/forum for support.
