Ios7 problems, safari crashes

No difference here. I bought the 32gb, returned for the 64gb within the two week exchange / return period.

Everyone I know with the air complains about safari crashes. Doesn't happen on the iPhone at least not as frequent as it does on the iPads.

The problem here is as I see it, the 1gb of ram is very limiting especially on a larger screen with iOS7. I wonder if the mini retina model suffers the same issue.

Not only Safari crashes. I've had other apps crash randomly like messages and others. Albeit not as much as Safari. I'm going to try out chrome on here and see what happens. If it too shows up in the diagnostic logs under low memory then we have our answer and are all screwed unless apple can optimize it better.

I just got a 32gb ipad air yesterday. Safari has been crashing a lot so I installed Chrome. The Air is still crashing on me. Maybe that's why it's on sale on Best Buy.

Just watched an interesting side by side comparison of safari on ios6 and ios7 here:

You will clearly see that Safari has taken a step backwards in regards to performance.

Most of us with the latest hardware would have thought at the very least our Safari performance would be more stable.

Apple please fix these problems.

So after a fresh restart I only opened Chrome, it didn't take very long for it to start stuttering during scrolling just visiting a few sites like 9 to 5 Mac etc. so after chrome crashed I decided to fire up Safari and it crashed on the very first site I visited.

I also noticed after a restart the iPad does not clear your recently opened applications, maybe we all need to free up some ram by remembering to close applications when we are done with them. Not convenient...

Below one can see chrome and Safari are very similar in the way they handle ram. Safari is a bit more of a pig and according to another post plays dirty, because it can.

In the PC world there are two reasons for app crashes. Bad Code or Bad Memory. Unless we are all infected with Bad Memory Dr. Watson could only deduce that the programming is sloppy.

In a moment of high irony, Safari on my iPad Air just crashed three times in a row while trying to load this page: http://9to5mac.com/2013/11/08/a-week-with-the-ipad-air-in-three-words-believe-th e-hype/

This was also very shortly after a reset.

For over two years now I was looking forward to the device we now know as the iPad Air. But the buggy iOS 7 has turned my excitement into frustration, disappointment, and--considering I gave Apple a thousand hard-earned bucks for the device--anger.

APPLE, PLEASE FIX THIS NOW!

Getting ridiculous, clearing website data and cookies and a reset is having no effect for me.

Also new to the ipadAir thing. It has been crashing like everyone else. I am having trouble with

just simple things like FB. I have 6 pages open right now and it seems ok. But the reason I am on the page is the crashing. My iPhone 4 with the ios7 on it crashed just checking the "settings". This would be nice to get resolved soon. I am on my 6th day of pad use. I would love to keep it. I am headed to simplymac in the am. I bought it there and I hope they can help me. This "discussion" has been very enlightening. I watched the video from the last page and that was a real eye opener. Have always been a Apple person but I am starting to rethink that. Please help a simple minded person with a simple request

I just want my 128gig ipad air that I paid $800 plus apple care $100 to work like it should. Simple. Thanks Steve for everything you ever did for Apple. Tim...fix this!

Yup that's what my Diagnostics and Usage screen looks like too on iPad. On my iPhone it says LatestCrash, LatestCrash, LatestCrash, LatestCrash...I guess when a company cranks out 500K devices a day for a product somethings gotta give.

I’m having the exact same problems with my iPad Air with the same diagnostics. Facebook, Pinterest, and a few other sites crash Safari every single time. I went over the whole thing with support last night and they had me do a complete recovery and it did nothing. They seemed surprised by the issue, but I can’t imagine that they really are. How disappointing.

I've had the iPad 1, 2, 3, and now the Air and in all but the First generation I've had issues with Safari crashing. I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one. It's pretty **** frustrating when I'm in the middle of something and it just closes out.

I'm also really tired of using iOS7's Safari on the iPad3. It's very slow ja crashes too.

I have made hard reset several times, turned off documents and data use of iCloud, erased all content and settings and installed my iPad as a new, but nothing is changed. 😢😢

APPLE do something asap !!

Don't worry Safari will still crash in iOS 7.1 Apple has decided to keep this feature permanently.

I agree. My iPad mini crashes constantly mostly when I am on twitter and Facebook. I am so disappointed and apple should fix it right away. I am getting really fed up. THIS NEEDS TO BE FIXED

Safari crashing like a bad date

Crashing like Skylab. Seriously, in all iterations I have had of the device and iOS, this combination is deadly. I'm pretty sure Safari is going to crash before I am done typing this.
