If it seems like your apps are crashing more frequently since you upgraded to the new iPhone 5S, you're not alone.
Mobile applications crash twice as often on the iPhone 5S than they do on both the iPhone 5 and iPhone 5C, according to tests by Crittercism, a mobile application performance management company.

But even with the doubled rate, crash frequency is still relatively low across all versions of the iPhone 5. The 5S has a crash rate of about 2%, compared to the original 5 and 5C's rates of just around 1%, AllThinsgD reported.
"Anytime there is new hardware or software release, we see issues,” Crittercism CEO Andrew Levy said in an interview with the site. “Inevitably, over time, those issues get resolved.”
Levy explained that the 5S might be seeing more crashes than the 5C because of its new hardware, which wasn't available to developers before its launch. The iPhone 5S includes a dual-core, 64-bit A7 chip that's nearly twice as fast as the A6 CPU, the chip that both the 5 and 5C have.
To study crash rates, Crittercism looked at hundreds of millions of app launches since the release of the new iPhones. Crittercism did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
