A new iOS bug is moving through all the iPhone in the world the bug crashes the message app and turn the iPhone off when a special type of text arrive in the iPhone. The bug effect the iPhone whether it is turned on or in sleep mode the text forcefully turn the iPhone off without any warning.

This kind of bug is not seen first time in iPhones, in fact this had been done many times iPhone but Apple keep fixing it and if it is not fixed, it could be used for a malicious purpose and iPhone is not the only Phone to have bug like this in past, in fact many handsets of different companies has suffered from this kind of bugs. but the one good thing is that this bug can transferred from iPhone to iPhone, it doesn't work with other platforms or from other platforms. People are not going to suffer it accidently and if someone received it so he/she is being targeted.

Many people had suffered from it if you want see their remarks just search the twitter and you will find hundreds of infected peoples.

If you received a message that causes the bug  we have some fixes which are working for users. One of them is very simple just after the reboot open your message app and if it closes so open again and reply to that person with any thing or fix and this will fix you iPhone and this works almost all time. And if your message is not opening and crashing again again so this could solved by receiving a simple message from someone else or sending yourself a message this could also be done using Siri.

To send your self a message said " send message to myself " and then tell what to send and you are done, this will clean your iPhone form that malicious message.

A person from twitter talk Apple support for its fix and Apple is now aware of this bug so we are expecting a fix very soon.
