Fallout Shelter crashing on startup?

Fallout Shelter crashing on startup? - Blue and White Fur Textile

So this morning I was actually pretty excited to play Fallout Shelter because I had a dweller returning from the wasteland with a lot of loot, aa couple babies being born, an objective that would have been completed and given me a lunchbox, and various other things. But when I turn on the game it gets past the "Bethesda" logo and to the "Please Stand By" screen, and then crashes! The tab is still open in the background, but if I try reopening it it takes me to the beginning of the sequence again.

I'm on running on a Moto X phone, and I've had no troubles with the game in the past. I would prefer not to restart as I was fairly far into the game, plus about to get all that beautiful bounty I previously talked about.

This happened to me, and I found I could fix by tapping the cloud save button on the vault multiple times.
