I am using UIWebViews in some of the screens, because I need a perfect Html text parsing.
According to crash reports a huge number of crashes, called WTF Crash, occur on these screens. Here is a trace of that crash

There is no OS version, or device relation on this crash.
I am not doing anything fancy on using UIWebView as well. It is added to nib like every other component, and in the implementation file I use it like the following
self.webView.scrollView.scrollEnabled = NO;
self.webView.scrollView.bounces = NO;
self.webView.opaque = NO;
self.webView.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
self.webView.delegate = self;
[self.webView loadHTMLString:htmlString baseURL:nil];
Any suggestions on how to solve WTF Crash?
Edit: Here is how htmlString looks like
Printing description of htmlString:
<html><body style="font-family:HelveticaNeue; font-size:10; background-color:#E5E4E4; text-align:left; color:#696969 ">test string</body></html>
I don't know how you are creating your UIWebView. But I was having a similiar issue with a WTFCrash and I was able to solve it by making sure that the UIWebView was being created on the main thread:
- (void)createWebView{
if (![NSThread isMainThread]) {
dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{
[self createWebView];
});
return;
}
self.webView = [[UIWebView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 320, 320)];
//Rest of my code
}
