I usually don't use it and still crashed. I enabled it 2-3 days ago, 30 apps + in the switcher, I chose not to close anything and only changed wallpaper once since then. The camera does have bit of lag with it enabled (just when swipe it up to get to the springboard as soon as it's done processing) but you really gotta pay attention to see it. This is my 6th day, everything appears rock solid.So I passed 9days without crashing. My scenario:
1. Turned off life photos.
2. White theme, didn’t change it.
3. 5 apps in the background all the time.
4. Change wallpaper once a day or two.
Today, I was brave enough to turn life photo on and try to take a picture, it went well but after closing camera app it starts to lag af. Seems like it have some memory issues and try to close or kill all the apps in the background. When I turn life photo off, it works smooth again. So my conclusion is life photo feature is the main reason why exactly in my case, camera app crashed. How many of you using this feature and also what you think about it?
My own theory is that resources get locked when you change the wallpaper or theme frequently while you have apps in the switcher, hence leading to the crash eventually. Still testing.
