I manage some apps for my "day job" and our app has been crashing since 7.0.3. Below is what we've discovered. I haven't seen a problem with my Buzztouch apps, but I don't think I'm using what is causing the problem. (Note I've redacted some of our company specific stuff in the text below). === As you know, Apple released a minor update to iOS yesterday, 7.0.3. The minor release was not made available to developers ahead of time. There were no opportunities to discover the bug early and our apps are not the only apps affected by the problem. Apple removed a font in 7.0.3, HelveticaNeue-Italic. [...] The app references the font in a configuration file parsed at app launch, so even though not all publishers are using the Summaries layout, all apps are affected. [...] It's also quite possible that removing HelveticaNeue-Italic was an oversight and Apple will release a new iOS 7 version with the font back in. === I hope this helps with any confusion / issues anyone may be having.
