My 5s is sporadically crashing to the apple logo when using the phone. I have not been able to pin down what causes it but it's happened quite a few times. I've already restored my phone and did not restore from backup and it still has the same issue. Is there some kind of bug in iOS 7 or the 5s hardware? Is anyone else experiencing similar issues?

I was experiencing the same thing on the first day I loaded iOS7 OTA on my iP5 and iPad 3. I did a hard reset once it had rebooted on each device. Since then I have not had any problems. How long have you had iOS7 installed for?

Does it happen when your on a particular screen or app? Check settings>general>about>diagnostics for more info.

I am having the same issue. Random crashes. I am thinking it could be that we are using apps that have not been fully upgraded to IOS 7. Don't recall if any of the crashes have occurred while using a native app.

I have had a couple of apps crash, a couple of crashes in settings, and then got a blue screen and phone rebooted. It is very odd that all of a sudden this happened today. I have had the phone since the 20th and it has been great with no crashes or reboots.

Same here, except for while jailbroken. My iPhone 5, never crashed. Seems, like my 5s, is having more crashes. It crashes randomly three to four times a day Any app. More frequent on native apps, Ironically.

Was happening to me. I started keeping track of the crashed. It was random. Sometimes on Apple apps, sometimes on the main screen, sometimes on 3rd party apps. Happening about 3 times a day. Some people are saying that it was not a reboot, but just the app closing. It is a reboot. Just a short one. (I am hiding apps, and they dont reapear after a on/off start, but they do reapear after a reboot)

I took it to the Apple store on Friday night, They asked me 2 questions then said "Ok, we need to replace this for you" Turns out, it is happening to more than a few. I got a replacement Friday night, and it has only happened once since.

I'm seeing the same thing and I don't think it has anything to do with any particular app. Probably happens to me once a day. I'm going to assume apple is aware of the problem and will fix it in a future update.

Don't think there's anything you can do to fix it right now, nor do I believe it's an app issue. This looks like an iOS bug to me that just needs to be straightened out asap, hopefully with the next minor 7.0.x update :)

I am currently on 7.0.2 and this short reboot happens to me like about once a day. Will hope the fix is released either this week or next week.

I had this happen to me once. I was using Runkeeper, on a call then when I hung up and the phone switched back to my podcasts it crashed.

I have not been able to re-produce the crash though.

Has anyone checked diagnostics & usage? I seem to be getting low memory quite a bit and this is usually when the crash happens. Just curious if anyone else is seeing that?

Are most of you setting up your new iPhone 5s as new or are you doing a restore? I have not had significant problems since day one. I set it up as a new phone and immediately downloaded the 7.0.1 update. As with most updates, once it is finished I either turn it off then on or reset it using the Home and Sleep buttons.

Curious.

I did a restore on my iPhone 5S from
iCloud when I got it. I have been having the same issue. About once every day. Not too irritating since it reboots so quickly, but it is annoying since I have to put on my new incredibly long passcode after it restarts. :)

This has happened to me as we'll, it seems like a software reboot rather than a reboot of the whole phone. Like the launcher? (Not sure of the apple lingo, just switched from android).

I set mine up in the store as new, didn't use a backup since the only ones I have are
From an iPod and an iPad.
