I mean that while in some menu under Spotify the app will snap back to
"More", and I have to go back manually. Actually I did not know that I
could alter the tabs, I will try it from now on. 

And yes I would very much like to test your fix :). I am not sure if I
can consistently reproduce the crash though. However it happens pretty
often, so it should be clear if the fix is working :).

Will it also work on iPad? I think there is a similar issue there, but I
am not sure (I mainly use iPeng on the phone).

EDIT: For the email to be useful do I need to be connected to my server?
If so I will have to wait until later.
