Reports of iPhone Browser Crashing Daily
Ever since the original iPhone launch, there have been numerous reports of iPhone Safari crashing multiple times per day in Apple related forums and blogs, particularly when surfing non-iPhone optimized websites via Mobile Safari. Some users have even claimed Apple's phenomenal mobile browser crashes every time they use it. Since then, Apple has released many software updates, but none has completely solved the problem. Some updates such as software version 2.0 had actually made the crashes more frequent. In later version 2 updates, apple has fixed crashes and freezes when filling out forms and entering texts, but the iPhone browser still crashes from time to time.
Possible Events Triggering the Mobile Browser Crashes
It has been reported that the iPhone Safari are likely to crash when- Displaying website that has a large file size or embeds widgets.
- Opening multiple websites within Safari
- Using the iPhone browser in landscape mode
- Changing between 3G and the EDGE network
RAM of 125 Megabytes is insufficient
Some have suggested that the 125 megbytes of RAM in the iPod Touch/iPhone is insufficient to carry out tasks in the modern world wide web. That is why as long as iPhone and iPod uses a 125 megabyte RAM, mobile Safari browser will always crash. Thus the only way to prevent crashes is to avoid using too many applications or opening to many memory intensive websites at once. It makes sense. Today's web site are for computers with 1 or 2 gigabytes of RAM. My Firefox as of now uses 157 megabytes of RAM. I am opening 6 webpages on 6 different tabs though. Since the iPhone has only 125 megabytes of RAM to allocate all its programs, any inadequate distribution of its memory can cause application crashes. Website with large embedded contents can potentially make Safari crash.Could it be the Software?
Software could definitely have an effect on Mobile Safari crashes. Just look at the fix that was done on software update version 2.02. The software update fixed apps from crashing. They must have done something to allocate the memory more efficiently so that apps won't crash. They can do the same thing to mobile Safari. Also, the browser itself, if optimized to use minimal memory and bug free, can help lower its crash rate. Safari browsers have been known to have a tendency to crash more than the other browsers. May be it is time for Apple to look into optimizing Safari as a priority.Solutions to prevent iPhone Safari crashes
So far, Apple and many other iPhone users have suggested few ways to prevent iphone mobile browser crashes.
- Power off the iPhone when your browsers start crashing. This can help reset some apps that may be running in the background.
- Try not to use too many functions at once, such as listening to music and surfing at the same time.
- Get the latest firmware. Usually they will help to improve stability of the iPhone browser.
- Surf a heavy content embedded website in portrait mode.
- Try resetting the cache. To reset cache, go to setting-> Safari-> Clear Cache. Also wait until the page finish loading before browsing with your fingers.
Big inconvenience and Reducing Productivity
The iPhone is a smart phone that is supposed to create conveniences and help us boost productivity. With the ability to access the full world wide web on your fingertips (except for flash content of course) as well as many other cool features such as GPS and thousands of applications, iPhone makes life more convenient and enables productivity anywhere that has an wireless signal. However, when the browser crashes constantly, the time it takes to reload the webpage can cause lots of precious time to be wasted. In the era of Web 2.0, the mobile iphone safari users could be utilizing a widget, making a comment on a blog or forum, or even writing a blog on safari. When iPhone browser crashes in the middle of these kind of tasks, it can be very annoying to do them over (and over) again!iPhone Safari is taking shares of the overall internet browsers quickly
Apple's crash-prone mobile browser, although crashes unpredictively, is gaining the browser market share fast. With web market share near 0.5% and more iPhones flying off the shelves around the world. There is no doubt in my mind that Mobile Safari will quickly be an important way to access the internet for many people. Hopefully, its success and people's complaints will force Apple to pay more attention to its mobile browser, giving us a crash-free Mobile Safari complete with flash and other goodies .Update 1: Firmware 2.1 had been released. Some are still reporting excessive Safari crashes. My advice would be to continue follow the above suggestions to prevent those pesky iPhone browser crashes.
Update 2:Firmware 2.2 has been released. It promised stability and bug fixes for the iPhone Safari. I've tested it on previously crash prone websites. The result: noticeable less crashes, but crashes nonetheless. If you are still having those annoying crashes, update now to get a more stable iPhone browser along with the new Google Street View for the iPhone!

It is so frustrating because when it is working properly, it is a beautiful device. I am a heavy browser user and notice it2-4 times a day. It is particularly frustrating when it crashes after you have been on an already loaded site for 2 minutes. I really think apple needs to get it's act together because I think there will be some truely competative devices on the market in 12-18 months.
