I upgraded my iPad and could reproduce it trivially.&lt;p&gt;The cause was calling focus&amp;#x2F;setSelectionRange on a textfield within a click handler. When I commented these out then the problem disappeared.&lt;p&gt;Not a rare combination and I’d have thought beta-testing should have flushed this out, but there you go.&lt;p&gt;Edit:&lt;p&gt;If you want to try reproducing this, go to &lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;cycle.travel&amp;#x2F;map&amp;#x2F;mobile?debug=1&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;cycle.travel&amp;#x2F;map&amp;#x2F;mobile?debug=1&lt;/a&gt; , and click within the &amp;#x27;From&amp;#x27; or &amp;#x27;To&amp;#x27; field. It crashes every time on my iPad running iOS 14.5.</text></comment>
