Complaints Mounting About iOS 13.2 Being 'More Aggressive at Killing Background Apps and Tasks'

Hmm...Im not having this problem at all (iPhone 11, 13.1.2).

I just loaded a video in youtube, switched to instagram and browsed, switched to reddit and browsed, switched to news, switched to photos, switched to safari, and back to youtube. Video was still in the same spot as i left it, and all my other apps were where i left them as well. o_O

Was reading an article just now in Safari. The page reloaded 5 different time by the time I scrolled all the way through it.

This is in iOS 13.2 not 13.1.2. Try updating and then comment your experience.

Tim Cook is doing a fine job as CEO. IN fact i think he is much better than Steve Jobs because he is pricing everything correctly. Not to forget he is the pioneer of smart watches and there is nothing better than apple products on the market.

All the negative feedback is just from apple hating shorters who want a piece of the money. I think this entire multitasking ”issue” is overblown - you guys don’t know how to manage memory and apple knows best because they have smart engineers that close apps that take up too much memory! Thank goodness I only use one app at a time because that would be dumb as heck to use two Simultaneously eating up all my precious memory for nothing.

Do you really believe what you are writing? Are you paid by Apple? Or are you only a hardcore Apple fanboy? Take of your pink Apple fanboy glasses

Youtube has been an issue since the beginning of this iOS 13.0+ fiasco. I pay for premium so I have background play available but even so it can decide to kill off the app while I'm doing something else. Not cool. Apple needs to think over it's RAM management and sell new products with decent amounts of RAM to begin with.

This is the primary reason I’m not getting the AirPod Pro.

I thought it was due to the price, but even if I had money to burn, I’m not updating any of my iOS devices from iOS 12.

My dad, who was a computer programmer back in the punch card days, used to say “You never want to be a pioneer (early adopter of new software) because we all know what happened to the pioneers. The ended up out on the prairie with an arrow in their back.”
If only I had listened to him and waited on iPad OS.
What a mess! I thought It was a Safari issue, but reading this thread has given me new insight.
I hope this gets straightened out soon!

I refuse to believe that this is intentional. It HAS to be a bug, otherwise this is a HUGE step backwards.

Haven’t noticed this on my iPhone 11 Pro running iOS 13.2🤞 This is probably just a bug and Apple will likely fix in a smaller 13.2.x software update.

Okay, but shouldn’t something like this have been noticed before ever getting out the door? 🤔

Is Apple even testing this stuff anymore? This is too huge to not even notice.

Remember when Apple said iOS 12 was designed to lay the foundation for stable, bug free, future releases
of iOS?

What's sad is that it takes this stuff going viral in order for apple to do anything about it. All those folks who's homepods were bricked? It's not until major outlets starting reporting it that apple finally pulled the update. What is going on with Q&A at Apple in 2019?

Each update feels like playing russian roulette with our devices.

It's a feature, not a bug: an ill-conceived attempt to improve battery life.

Save your conspiracy theories.

If only some people are having the issue, while most are not.... that kinda intimates that it’s not due to a new battery feature, implemented for everyone, yeah?
 
Seeing iOS waking my applications for silent data notifications and then terminating them without giving them really any opportunity. 🙃 I've never had an app terminated by baseboard like that ever, which pretty much confirms it's some bug/problem rather than a tighter restriction.

Can you name the usual suspects in the forum? Seems you have a list. I have this issue and don’t hate Apple. Let me get this right, if I have the issue is because I hate Apple? WTH?? Go ahead and put your money, you’ll be broke in a matter of seconds. Perhaps you’re the troll.

I only have a few safari tabs open usually... maybe this is some correlation. For those having problems do you have a many tabs open in safari?

Yes, the problem isn’t with 13.1.2, is with 13.2. Didn’t have this problem before 13.2.

Kind of like the usual suspects who claim they don’t have any issues and it’s not an issue?

is Apple still working on the car?
Would you buy an Apple Car off the makers of iOS 13?

‘Don’t worry, we’ll fix the bugs in the brakes in a few months. The brakes will fail to work for only a small amount of users.’

Seriously, if Apple is working in the car and want the watch to be a trusted device with medical functionality used by consumers, insurers and medical professionals, they need to seriously curtail the marketing milestone driven approach that that have to iOS releases.

I suspect that that approach is seriously impacting their software quality (and leading to a significant amount of employee attrition in engineering I shouldn’t wonder).

People love to say Apple doesn’t use enough RAM, a software bug does not make those unfounded claims to be true overnight. All tests ever show that Apple phones are the fastest around by far and RAM management isn’t usually an issue. So what if it’s true, people are having issues, it’s software and will be corrected. Not a huge deal.
