Ipad air low memory crash

"This means that there are web pages that even under iOS 5/6 still easily load on an iPad 2 with only 512MB RAM, while under iOS 7 on an iPad Air (with twice as much RAM), even in Safari may lead to a crash..."

This the summary of the discussion, isn't?

nin.com crashes in landscape if scroll down.

OK, here is direct post from google translation (german to english).

Today I emailed the developer of the browser "iCab Mobile".

I would like to announce the findings of this developer and I thank you a thousand times for his truthful words.

Below is the mail traffic is very interesting ...

Like the new use agreement. Too much irrelevant ranting here.

I'll be direct. Since 7.1.1, I'm getting many more crashes than I had in 7.1, usually in safari. The crash logs appear to blame other apps, but happens even when nothing else is running. Tried reboot, clearing history and cookies, no difference.

Wish I hadn't updated, but on the other hand some nasty sounding security gaps were closed.

I agree its not hardware but ios7

which has bad code and causes the crashes.

Come on Apple get your finger out and solve this problem.

That believe the hype page ain't crashing no more on mine.

Reboots are more often on 7.1.1. Dammit. Very sad.

More common, I mean.

Having same issue with iPad air and iPhone 5S, both iOS 7.1.1. With iOS 7.1 i had about 2 crashes while with 7.1.1 already got 10 crashes. So annoying and mostly I use MBA because doing online payments or other serious things on iPad or iPhone makes me worried about not getting crash...

Had the iPad Air replaced at a London store again and set up as new. Seems speedier, less app refreshes. Great battery life again - 91% after 3 hours of moderate use at full brightness. Not willing to test the resprings as no doubt they will be there but hopefully with the new setup they won't be as common.

Oh, and I was told (with a near straight face) that apps refreshing themselves and losing your work is a 'feature' of the OS. Thankfully them crashing and rebooting isn't. Thew.

I am extremely frustrated with Safari on my iPad Air and regret upgrading from my iPad 2 which had few problems. I can honestly say that I crash at least 20-30 times a day on numerous web sites. An erase and restore did nothing to correct the situation, and i've tried just about every recommendation on the web. Apps in iOS 7 no longer save their state when multi-tasking and switching back and forth which is a real step backward in my opinion. Web browsing should be solid on the iPad as I would think it is the most used function. Come on Apple!

if you look at your dianostics report (settings/general/about/diagnostics&usage/dianostics & uage data you will see low memory listed. most crashes are low memory. i read that iPad 4/Air uses 10 more memory than iPad 2 ... i.e. a 50 MB use is 500 MB . and since the air memory is 1GB then there isnt moch left for cpu and overhead. i find that my memory dips to below 200 MB free a lot. they should have put a 2 GB xhip for memory in iPad 4/Airs !!!

and often i find that safari likes portait better than landscape.

I'm not sure what to make of it, but it is bothersome. The crashes can occur with no other apps open and with only one tab in Safari. It seems that some websites i visit crash all the time while others have little to no problem at all. I called Apple back in January to report the problem, and went through the whole resetting crap, which was useless. At least It doesn't spontaneously reboot now, which was the other problem i used to have. I don't seem to have these problems on my iPhone 5s, but to be honest I don't really browse the web too much on it. I'm pretty sure it's bad software as some apps, like memory intensive games rarely crash.

it seems to result from a known problem . esecially if you have an iPad 4/Air . seems that it uses 10 times more memory than the others ... i.e. a 50 MB use is 500MB in the iPad 4/Air . and since the iPad 4/Air only has 1GB of memory you un out fast. i jphave trying to find an app that closes prosses that are runnng but not where i can close them. i have also had my memory usage as low as 24MB free . i use sys activity manager lite (free) to see the memory usage. maybe if i paid for dull i could shut down processes that are runing like mail, app store, camera, when i am not even using them.seems that closing apps still let them run if the app is correct. i just checked i have appx 161MB free at this time.

What your commandline log in iOS is saying is that there Daimian processes delegating memory behind the GUI (graphic interface - which actually only accounts for less than 15% of the programming booting any smartphone device or computer) to utilize processing speed and memory towards other process instead of the phones functioning. This is indicative more often than not these picked up some sort of bug. When the phone is being rewritten and it's commandline log (seen any log aggregated logs?) all the way to Daemon processes (these awe apples version of efi- which is the second layer of programming in a smart phone or comp. it's bridging the gap between the hardware and the first layer of the operating system- is process written in DSCL (Unix & Linux command line scripting). Apple runs osx off a platform of hardware called unix- a open source system. The daemons hybrid DSCL and osx's 36 programming languages- the first of which is launchD, then loginD (you will interact with this)- and they will stay in the background of OS X well it runs at all times. These are fundamental parts of the hierarchy of the filing system Apple runs OS X off of. There aren't very many Daimian processes that Apple utilizes. There's only launched D and iOS naturally. iOS uses a very very different format of programming. So if the secondary process utilizing Daimian is aggregating and pushing your memory out for another process is not fundamentally part of iOS. It also indicates that behind what you can see your phone is choosing to do things you didn't tell it to. You can't trust a graphical interface he can you program to mock up anything- but you can always trust commandline logs. Your phone should never decide what memory is being delegated to which processes. You are the administrator of your phone.

More often than not trash lines are a bad sign on my iPhone. Mad props for recognizing that the crash report was something you need to look into. When Apple drops an update it usually is because there's a fundamental hole in the platform. It will take care some the issues you're encountering. What ultimately you need to do is download and read install a factory reset utilizing a computer and iTunes ensuring that the IPS W is in place and at the firmware is reprogrammed. You never know what your phone is choosing to do behind it's graphical interface? Grab your docking cord plug it into the phone will take over from there you need to back it up and factory restore it.

It's super easy! :) I do this for a living by the way- I'm a pro apple IT consultant.
