IPhone apps crashing: Why are Spotify, Tinder, Pinterest, other applications not working?

Facebook's developer page is now reporting 'an increase in errors on the iOS SDK'.

The Spotify down issues that have hit today has reportedly been caused by an issue with Facebook and their software developer kit (SDK) for iOS.

While numerous above services work for me, I've been able to replicate the issue on Viber on iOS, which crashes right after launch.

"Users don't have to be using Facebook to log into an app for this to affect their software".

SPOTIFY DOWN - UPDATE ONE: Spotify fans have got an update about the app issues that are causing the programme to crash or not open on iOS.

Several popular apps, like Spotify, Tinder and Pinterest, are now broken on iOS devices. The issue has since been resolved, Facebook announced.

"The same issue has led to problems at a wide variety of apps", it added.

However, that took place on a Wednesday, not a Friday, when most new releases are posted on streaming services. Severe outage spikes were also seen for these apps on DownDetector.com.

On Friday, Spotify's official Spotify Status account on Twitter said that the company is investigating an issue, with no further details disclosed. "We're now investigating, and we'll keep you posted here!" tweets, which it most recently did early in May.

The issue is down to a Facebook SDK embedded in these apps.

At the time of publication, 64 percent of people that reported issues have problems with music streaming while 31 percent have issues logging into Spotify.

When it comes to updating the SDK, Facebook is seemingly moving too fast and breaking too many things.
