**Brief**
Since upgrading unity to 4.5.5p5 from 4.5.4p1 our application crashes during initialisation on a subset of iOS 8.1.3 devices
it also occurs on the iOS 8.2 beta and upgrading unity 4.6.1p4 does not fix the issue
**Known affected devices**
iPhone 6, iPad Air, iPad Air 2 - when running iOS 8.1.3/8.2, all previous os's run without issue
**Known un-affected devices** iPhone 6+, iPhone 5c

Creating OpenGLES2.0 graphics device
Initialize engine version: 4.5.5p5 (a9cacae7f864)
...
Shader warmup: 66 shaders 98 combinations 0.016s
**Known Fixes**
- Stopping QualitySettings.antiAliasing being changed at runtime, we do this once during our applications initialisation; this causes AA to be disabled which isn't really a suitable solution
- Removing the call to Shader.WarmUpAllShaders() - the crash seems to occur within the proximity of this function exiting.
- Calling Shader.WarmUpAllShaders() but with only a subset of our shaders loaded, I have tried to identify what the shaders that cause the issue have in common but to no avail.
- disabling the force GLES 2.0 player setting - thus allowing the affected devices to run in GLES 3.0 mode
**Notes**
I think the iOS 8.1.3 update introduces changes to graphics drivers for a specific set of Apple devices, this coupled with our shaders on this particular unity version is causing a bug to occur within the new drivers.
We have another application which is similar in scale, design and shader usage and it is unaffected.
Instruments does not shed any light on the issue
**Questions**
- Is their a path of investigation that I should be pursuing that might help identify the issue?
- Does anyone have any ideas what might be causing the issue?
