Application.Quit() causes crashing on next app launch

I think Application.Quit() on Android doesn't properly remove the app, which causes the app to crash next time you launch it. Use this instead:
System.Diagnostics.Process.GetCurrentProcess().Kill();
Just wanted to share since it's easy to overlook. Might be one of the reasons your app keeps stopping.
