Ever had the feeling that certain phone operating systems are more likely to crash your apps than others? It's not just you. Crittercism (http://www.engadget.com/2014/03/28/mobile-platform-crash-study/) has posted (http://data.crittercism.com/android-crash-rate-by-version) its latest breakdown of crash reports from about 20,000 apps, and it's clear that certain operating systems aren't as friendly as others. On Android, Ice Cream Sandwich (4.0) is most likely to wreck your day; KitKat (4.4) is close behind, while Lollipop's early reputation (http://www.engadget.com/2015/01/31/htc-lollipop-update-snags/) for glitches apparently doesn't affect apps. With Apple devices, however, the tables turn. While iOS' app crash rate is lower overall, iOS 8 is a bit more problematic than its predecessor. That's not surprising given that Apple hasn't had as much time to tackle issues (http://www.engadget.com/2015/02/09/ios-9-focus-is-under-the-hood/) in 8, but you may feel better if you're still holding on to 7.
