    Windows 8 Keeps closing down apps

    My Windows phone (Nokia Lumia 630) is only eight months old but ever since I first got it it has randomly closed down apps I'm using. It comes up with Resuming... And deletes everything I was doing in that app. For some apps it freezes and completely restarts my phone. Any ideas on what I could do?
