Strange crash in UITextview undo on iOS 7

Question

I have been receiving a bunch of crash reports that look a lot like the following with different values for the range. Sometimes the range is not 0-x it could be say 2-x

Application Specific Information:* Terminating app due to uncaught exception \'NSRangeException\',reason: \'* -[NSBigMutableString substringWithRange:]: Range {0, 69} out of bounds; string length 0\'

Answer 1

If you set UITextView's text property after user edit it, it seems that you need to call [textView.undoManager removeAllActions] to clear undo history.
