iPhone Why do apps suddenly close

[gbf]

I’ve been an iPhone user for a long time and sometimes; not that often, apps with suddenly close or what people call crash. Why does this happen? Is it just a normal iPhone iOS thing?

You mean they’re reloading after you minimize the app? Or they’re literally crashing while you use them? I notice apps reload a lot more on iOS 13 compared to iOS 12. I think it’s a bug. Apps shouldn’t be constantly reloading.

Do you mean that opening an app causes it to immediately close and you have to open it again? It’s just an app crash. I’ve had that happen now and then on previous iOS versions and opening the app a second time yields a working app. The crash could be caused by any number of things but it’s usually that something the app was doing has caused a situation from which the app could not recover and it just closed.

It’s not an iOS thing, or even an Apple thing, I’ve seen this happen in Android and Linux as well. It’s a software thing.
