Thanks to our friend Rahul   The possible reasons would be:   1. iOS supports 5 service calls concurrently, this is a limit put from the OS. Advisable to make minimum amount of calls. 1-2 calls asynchronous, this will even help in low network speed. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15089331/maximize-the-number-of-simultaneous-http-downloads Here is a library that deals with thread pool and URL dispatching just in case:  https://github.com/Weswit/utility-ThreadPool-ios   The article:  http://blog.lightstreamer.com/2013/01/on-ios-url-connection-parallelism-and.html     2. The above issue might be the root cause of the application crashing at certain points, call not handled properly. Application not receiving data since the network speed is slow, "request times out" not handled. 3. I'm guessing that the call are made asynchronous, if not then they should be made asynchronous or in background thread, a loader should be shown while this operation is performing. So that the

Specifically take care of the following   ·          Allocate Memory Using sizeof Never call malloc with an explicit size (for example, malloc(4)) to allocate space for a variable. Always use sizeof to obtain the correct size for any structure or variable you allocate. Search your code for any instance of malloc that isn’t followed by sizeof. ·          Always Define Function Prototypes ·          Take Care with Functions and Function Pointers   Here are more details on that https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/General/Conceptual/CocoaTouch64BitGuide/ConvertingYourAppto64-Bit/ConvertingYourAppto64-Bit.html
