3 Primary Reasons of Mobile App Crashes that Raise Needs for Mobile Repairs

by Eva Spenser Innovation

Mobile users are often pinned down by software glitches, and the most irritating of them happens to be the crashing of the mobile applications they use. A survey revealed that 61 percent of the mobile users would expect their mobile apps to start within 4 seconds, while 49 percent would expect the apps to be launched within a mere 2 seconds. 

Therefore, that is the picture of the lack of patience these days. From that, it is pretty understandable what might be the effect of a crashed mobile app on the psyche of the users. 

They do not waste time to get their gadgets to the techies who do all the phone repairs in Modbury. Before they do so, it is always better for them to know the 3 probable reasons that lead to the crash of apps – the reasons that compel them to go for phone repairs.

Defective or Improper Memory Management

One of the most likely reasons behind the crashing of apps is improper memory management. When an app spins too many threads and consumes too much memory resources or is being run on a platform that has too many other apps running at the same time that is improper management of memory. 

Now, this leads to the slowing of the app in question and subsequent crash of the same. The software system of a mobile phone needs to be a part of the app ecosystem to run properly without crashing. If not, the apps that will run on it will crash time and again.

Short Software lifecycle 

The iterative process that is followed these days in the development of apps broadens their avenues of getting into the market every now and then to catch the audience almost instantly and stay afloat in the face of cut-throat competition. 

However, in the hurry of reaching out to the customers and earn revenues, they lack the traditional software lifecycle. Now this gives rise to a series of significant complications, thanks to their dependencies on the OS as well as the 3rd party APIs. Naturally, this causes these apps to crash at the drop of a hat, giving rise to software issues in the mobiles. 

Inadequate testing of the Apps

The need for adequate and prolonged testing of the apps is an eternal imperative. However, in the urge of hitting the stands in a hurry, they find hardly any time for adequate testing of these apps. This, coupled with a wide range of Android versions that are used along various kinds of devices is a challenge for these apps, which they fail to cross over, and falter at the end. Well, there are simulators these days, but these software running on software instead of lie might now reveal its performance limitations.

Increasing and abrupt change in Network Management

The mobile apps these days are becoming increasingly dependent on network access, either for the third party services or for data. Chiefly, increasing and abrupt change in network management is to be held accountable for that. 

In other words, change in data transfer network speed, from say 2G to 3G, 4G and beyond (as is being contemplated now) is resulting in lost or scrambled or disturbed packets, causing the apps to crash. This affects the software system of the mobiles, compelling the users to get their devices to a mobile repair company in Adelaide to have things straightened. 

If these are the 3 primary reasons for apps crashing on mobiles causing software issues, the other reasons are error conditions and improper exception handling.
