It seems to me that iOS 7 grabs more memory itself, leaving less memory available for the applications, and the devices with 512 MB memory (or less) don't have enough to load aprs.fi in the browser when a lot of stations are brought to view. iPad Mini and iPad 2 have 512 megabytes, the original iPad 1 has 256 MB, the 3rd- and 4th-generation iPads ("new iPad") have 1 GB (specifications).

The same probably applies to iPhones, but I didn't upgrade to 7 yet.
There's not much I can do about this, other than make it somehow load less stations and lines on the map initially.
Or release a native iOS application which doesn't process the map data in Javascript, and will be able to keep its memory use lower that way.

Would love a native ios app, yes please!
Actually I just tried it on my ipad4 and it crashed a burned too. You may need to do something unfortunately.
Same here, iPhone 4S.

It's the same issue on my iPhone 4s. A native iOS app would be fantastic!
Seems Apple fixed something with iOS 7.1.
I don't have the issue anymore on my iPhone 5s and iPad 3 since then.
Phil: Oh, goodness, that's great news.
