Slow Apps

I keep adding more and more menus and screens and a lot of users are sending error reports of the app crashing. Is there anything I can do on my end to help this? The point of my app is to keep adding more each week so I only foresee this problem getting worse. Thanks for the help in advance

iOS / Anroid / buzztouch version? There is a natural limitation to the number of files you can ask a mobile phone to handle. The best apps don't overload the device with hundreds and hundreds of files. Instead, they focus on core functionality and make calls to the network for heavy content. There is no 'built in limit' to the amount of content you're control panel will allow but it is a balance. Also, the content itself can get 'heavy' - videos, audio, super-large PDF's, they all add up and take a toll. Lastly, what kind of devices are you getting complaints from? There are pleny of $49.00 Anroid units out there that are, well, underpowered!

Sorry for the late response! Android 1.4. And my app is honestly only designed for the power house phones like EVO, Droid X, Incredible, Thunderbolt, etc. While I'm sure any phone with 2.2 will run the app, I am not designing it for them. Most of the people are the HTC Desire. I am in Cali as well and I've found a few different Desire devices and I can't tell if it's actually similar to the G1, Mytouch, or something like the Aria.
