We are so dependent on Smartphones ,the apps they
offer and how Smartphones apps have changed our lives, that any crash of mobile apps can adversely affect the user. Smartphones
can be considered as one of the most innovative gadget of the decade and in the
recent times it has proved its power and even taken over the personal computer.
Some of the most common issues faced while developing an app is a mobile app
crash. It can occur due various reasons and mostly happens due to -
- demand exceeding the supply
- incorrect memory, CPU usage
- bandwidth issues
- integration dependency
- browser incompatibility
- database issues
- poor front-end optimization
- network change
- fatal bugs at the time of production and device incompatibility
App crash can turn out to be a disaster for users as well as
the developers. The app crash can influence the data integrity and productivity
of the application. The functionality included with an app will include storing
data or developing a change in the data pattern. This kind of an app crash can
affect the app developer adversely including a professional strain in his
career. This will discourage clients and customers equally when they look out
for apps developed by the same developer. It can also affect the profit and the
market value for the app.
The reason for an app crash needs to be identified by
the app developer. The mobile application testing is the most reliable form to
locate the issue and rectifying it in the application. An app crash can lead to
memory leaks, stack smashing, multitasking, syncing conflicts, error codes, network
connection, etc. Another issue that occurs during an app crash is the conflict
between the application and OS. The OS plays a key role while running an app.
Some of the common ways to avoid a mobile application
crash are-
- The app developers need to
analyze and rectify the errors or bugs while coding it so that it would
not lead to any app crash.
- Memory leaks need to be handled
carefully by the app developer, as it can create app malfunction rapidly.
- The updates of the application
need to be updated from the application itself or can be based on the OS.
- Most iOS apps have shown a
tendency to to crash while they utilize third party APIs. Expert asks
users to avoid such third party APIs.
- While testing an application,
the developer needs to analyze the platforms that are supported by the
app.
