My anecdotal evidence co-incides with this, I used to use Android and had barely any crashes (the only ones were generally specifically reproducable bugs), and now I use iOS and I see a lot more.

I always attributed it to memory management - manual memory management is simply a lot easier to f' up than garbage collection. Meanwhile Android apps are slower and probably consume more memory. It's all tradeoffs.
