At first I thought this was going to be the file:/// bug, but this is different one. Dammit Apple, why can't you write a working text renderer? It's not that hard! Well, actually it is kinda hard given the bajillions of character encoding systems out there, but it's not hard to write one that doesn't crash on certain text strings! What the fuck?
It's especially funny to send a text message with this content to your friends iphone xP
(No, don't do it, they can't open their Messages app then anymore).

Confirmed...Crashes Google chrome also on IPad.
the issue is with the WebKit browser engine, but it actually affects any browser or application that uses Apple's CoreText API
mysteryminer....thanks! Too funny!!

I wonder what would happen if some forum member with lots of posts would put that string in his signature 
I think I won't recommend it xD
Done.I think I won't recommend it xD
Oh wait....maybe I now have a virus...... 
From what I read it will not allow memory access so there is no remote code execution possibility. So no virus for now. Bastard, I clicked the link on my iPad before reading the warning. I had to reset Safari to get it to work again. 
Sorry

That's hilarious! The following string will crash apple devices:
