Beware if you have any jokester friends with iOS devices -- they might
just have a way to ruin your day if you have any iOS gadgets of your
own. Apple has
confirmed that it's fixing a
recently discovered bug that crashes iPhones and other iOS 8 hardware the moment you get a carefully crafted set of
Unicode
characters in iMessage and other communication apps with notification
previews. It's not clear when that fix will be available, but the only
existing safeguard is to turn off those previews. Otherwise, you may
have to
bend over backwards to make sure that those rogue messages don't cause further chaos. While this isn't the biggest iOS glitch
we've seen lately, it's definitely the most annoying.
