In iOS 7, Safari crashes often, especially with YouTube videos

Till now everything runs perfectly on iPad4.....when I upgraded to ios7, I update also my apps. Most of the app has a update which compatible to ios7....like Youtube apps. Try to update the Youtube apps.

Can you give an example web page where this happens?

Hi, I have exactly the same problem. Safari is crashing on a regular basis when I am browsing and visiting pages with embedded you tube video. As long as you select the play button on the video window Safari is freezing and after ~2 or 3 seconds crashes and close.

Eg. Visit www.newsbeast.gr which is a Greek news portal and hit a theme with embedded video. It is very easy to reproduce.

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Hi,

My problem is related: i have to click red and then grey play button three times before embedded youtube video plays - unbelieavable. Two plugins i ve been playing youtube videos with are not working now - worked like a dream before ios 7. Now i m bewildered: should i stop playing youtube videos on my site or wait for some apple bug fix...such a pain!

By the way, i m using ipad 3

I am having the same problem. We use a weebly website that has youtube videos on it to help build background for my students. I have been unable to play the any of the videos since the update. Please help!!! I need to be able to show my students these videos.

Yes - this happens on Safari and Chrome on my ipad mini - noticed it mostly with Guardian pages (which probably have youtube videos embedded - I'll keep my eye on this). No question - before ios 7, never had a browser crash ever - now it's two or three times per session, together with a kind of sticky-jumpiness when scrolling the pages. Answers welcome. Though let's be honest - we're just waiting for a bug update.

Safari has also been crashing frequently for me since ios7. In addition to lots of lag just reading comments on Guardian website..something that you'd think would be easy to handle. I'm talking an amount of lag thats frustrating to the point of being unusable

I have an iPad mini. Sorry, I don't know what version. I got it last Xmas. Ever since I downloaded IO7 I am having the hardest time watching videos on YouTube. They won't load. Doesn't matter if I access YouTube through the app, through a link on Safari, or a link in Facebook (which might be considered accessing it through safari). Dang videos just won't load. I have to back out of them, then try again. Then again. If I just sit and wait often they won't load at all. Driving me crazy. The lag makes my mini unusable for YouTube.

I have the exact same problem .... Particularly with the guardian website! I have tried turning off I cloud sync - resetting - and so on. To no avail. I like the new userface but this crashing whilst reading comments especially is so frustrating .... and it is so "laggy" too.

My iPad was perfect before this. Has anyone got a solution????????????

It's really bad not-enough-ram-like when I use safari and chrome surf the same site. Now it's stuck not so much I can do when I open them. Don't upgrade to ios7 I warn you

Exactly the same problem here (iPad 2, 64g).

Tried it all, shutting down all background apps, restore, you name it.

I believe it is a YouTube app problem.....I installed Jasmine to watch YouTube videos now (you need to favourite them in your YouTube account to access them easily). Absolutely no problem watching them using the Jasmine app. No video crashes (on YouTube, anything longer than 5 minutes would crash).

Other than that, it is very frustrating having it constantly crash. Hopefully this is fixed soon.

The only web it's giving me problems is the guardian. Both with chrome and safari. Am I alone?
