Can apps cause iOS to reboot? That's a bit shocking.
I don't own an iPhone.

To the unobservant user it looks like the OS is rebooting, although it's much quicker than a real reboot.
I think on the Nexus 4, Snapchat still ships with a warning that it doesn't work properly.
Mine would reboot about every second time I took a picture.
Still, I've got to wonder, what are they doing that's so different than other camera apps that seem to work fine?
Two of them have been in the last month or so. Unfortunately the phone doesn't just reboot. It shuts down completely and refuses to boot back up with a low battery warning. I believe this is actually hardware related but I have had it crash when trying to call an Uber. I think Facebook may have caused a crash too.
Uber was especially painful because hailing taxis in my city (Seattle) is essentially impossible and pay phones are not a thing that exist in 2016. Luckily I was near a bus stop and know how the lines work without my phone.
It was a shocking illustration of how dependent I have become on my smartphone.
