A poorly written application can start eating up large amounts of RAM, then refuse to give it back to the system, causing your device to start acting weird. As you use the device, the OS works in the background, dynamically allocating RAM to apps that require it, suspending RAM for apps that don't need it, and conducting other tasks to make sure the system is running smoothly.īut, as you probably know, iOS isn't perfect.

It's usually at this point that you start thinking your device can no longer pass muster. There's a good chance that your iOS device has become unresponsive at least once.
