I’m using my app and when I use it for the beginning of the day, everything works fine. However, as I gradually test it and repeat certain tasks over and over, as the day goes on, my app just crashes. Specifically, views start disappearing in my current screen, and when I go back, the view is missing labels, images, etc. Then all of a sudden, it just goes BLACK, and doesn’t really crash, but just remains black, and dysfunctional.

I checked the crash log, and it’s very cryptic. I just see ” failed to resume in time”, everything else in the log doesn’t give me much meaningful information.

I know anything could’ve caused this, but what probably caused it?
Was it:

1) Using too much memory, and views probably got unloaded in viewDidUnload?
2) Due to an over release of an object?
3) Accessing an invalid pointer or something?

    You are likely gradually running lower and lower on memory, forcing these views to begin unloading. iPhone apps are designed to try to survive this way, by dumping unused views first. Once things get to a certain point though, the app will be essentially unusable.

    I’d check your app with the leaks instrument and make sure you’re releasing things properly.
