Why Your App Crashes After iOS 18.3 Update

Last week's iOS update broke background sync for about 40% of our clients. The issue isn't obvious — it only shows up when users have low power mode enabled and location services running.

We found the problem buried in Apple's new battery optimization protocol. Here's what changed and how to fix it without rolling back your entire build.

Push Notifications Not Arriving on Android 14

Google changed how apps handle notification channels. If your users aren't getting alerts, check your manifest file first. We've seen this affect apps that haven't updated their target SDK in the past six months.

Battery Drain After Last Update

Three clients reported excessive battery usage after updating to version 4.2. The culprit was a background service that wasn't properly throttled. Quick fix available.

Login Loop on Samsung Devices

Some Samsung phones running One UI 6 got stuck in a login loop. Turns out it's related to how the system handles biometric authentication. We've patched it and rolled out an emergency update.

Most app crashes aren't random. After handling support tickets for three years, I've noticed patterns. The same issues pop up every time there's an OS update or when developers rush a feature release.

What frustrates me is how often these problems could be caught earlier. Simple testing on real devices — not just emulators — prevents about 70% of the issues we see. The other 30% are usually OS-level changes that nobody could predict.

If your app suddenly starts acting weird after you didn't change anything, check what updated on the device side. That's where the problem usually hides.

Common Problems & Solutions

Sync Issues

Data Not Syncing Between Devices

Users complaining that changes on one device don't show up on another? Check your sync interval settings first. If that looks fine, the problem might be with how your app handles network switches.

  • Verify background sync permissions are enabled
  • Check if the app has proper network state listeners
  • Test sync behavior when switching between WiFi and mobile data
  • Review server-side logs for failed sync attempts

Performance

App Freezes on Older Devices

Performance issues on older hardware usually mean something's hogging the main thread. Heavy image processing or database queries that weren't optimized properly.

  • Move heavy operations off the UI thread
  • Reduce image sizes before loading into memory
  • Implement pagination for large data sets
  • Profile memory usage on devices with 2GB RAM or less

Authentication

Users Getting Logged Out Randomly

Random logouts are annoying and usually point to token expiration issues or problems with how your app handles session persistence. Sometimes it's as simple as the OS clearing app data to free up space.

  • Check token refresh logic and timing
  • Verify secure storage implementation
  • Review app lifecycle handlers for state restoration
  • Test behavior after device restarts

UI/UX

Interface Elements Not Responding

When buttons don't respond or scrolling feels broken, it's often related to gesture conflicts or z-index issues. Touch targets that are too small or overlapping elements can cause this too.

  • Ensure touch targets are at least 44x44 pixels
  • Check for transparent overlays blocking interactions
  • Review gesture recognizer priority settings
  • Test on devices with different screen sizes
