Ios 7 apps refresh

Yes, many more in other threads not multitasking properly either.

Great to hear Apple has recognized this as an issue. What a pain!

Would this bug also be responsible for the fact that both my Instapaper & Pinboard bookmarklets in Safari KEEP asking for my login credentials every 10 minutes?!

Hi, I've been on the older thread dealing with this issue and am here viewing this thread for the first time. (Is there a way to combine our two threads so we're not duplicating our efforts?) I just read Barzo's excellent comment here from Nov. 21. Barzo, I agree with you 100%. It's crazy and even slightly suspicious that Apple would ask its users to reproduce this problem and send in logs, as if it's some sort of esoteric and difficult-to-reproduce problem. It's so easy to reproduce it's ridiculous. Anyone can do it - it's there for any iPad or iPhone user to see for himself, though possibly it happens less with the latest models. And in that regard you're entirely right that it should be considered a botched feature rather than a bug. When I spoke to someone at the Apple Store Genius Bar about our problem a few weeks ago and he said it was "working as designed," I was initially irritated as that phrase is the classical cop-out of IT support personnel. But now I realize he was being completely truthful. It's much worse than a bug. There's no bad coding here or coding that doesn't consider all circumstances; the problem seems instead to be the consequence of a badly thought-out design. If indeed it was done to save battery life, how about a switch in Settings so a user can decide whether or not he wants to save a bit of battery life and have all his apps reset when switching back to them?

@mascotca - Yes, this bug is exactly what is causing your web page to ask for your login credentials every time it refreshes.

Have had this same issue. It has not been fixed with any of the iOS 7 updates so far (I currently have the latest one--7.0.4--installed). This is driving me nuts, along with Safari constantly crashing when you are actually browsing in it at the time.

Still having same issue on iPhone 4S running iOS 7.0.4... **** you apple for still not fixing this garbage.

Yeah seems to have gone all quiet on the update front!

This is a real royal pain in the *** and the fact that nothing has been done about it in all this time is nothing short of diabolical!

I actually got a call from Apple to assist with this issue and send them error logs, looks like they went right to the recycle bin!

Come on Apple, play the game!!!

Steve Jobs would have said, "This is ****!"

What could we do to break through apple's walls with this issue? It's really a big thing and no super-reviewing-website seems to put the ginger on it. Only small improvements like app icon colors, while the whole usability experience is suffering because of this!

How can we file this problem to Apple and get heard?

This issue has made my ipad 2 almost unusable anymore. Not really eve trying to do to much, just go between a document or book and a note taking app. It seemed ok for a short time following a restart.

Only started after a recent update I did. I guess I had held off for a while after reading this thread and seeing all the others wih the issue.

Someone had suggested Google Chrome as a workaround for the problems this is causing with Safari so I installed it today. It's not working as I would have expected. Seems like it has the same problems as Safari but I have not fully tested it. I sure wish I had a version 6 device to use to test stuff on.

Just want to add my voice to the discussion. This is a huge problem for me. I often use Google Drive to take notes, occasionally copying excerpts from web pages or papers in Good Reader. The incessant automatic refreshing of apps kills productivity and makes multitasking almost worthless. Please fix this Apple! I have too much invested in you to switch to Android....
