What approaches and techniques do you use to address memory management issues in applications?

To manage memory in iOS applications, I use the following approaches and techniques:

• ARC (Automatic Reference Counting) — the primary memory management mechanism in iOS. It's important to properly manage strong (strong) and weak (weak) references to avoid retain cycles.

• Using weak and unowned references to break cycles, especially in closures and delegates.

• Profiling with Instruments (Leaks, Allocations) to detect memory leaks and analyze memory usage.

• Optimizing the use of large objects and caches to avoid holding unnecessary data in memory.

• Avoiding strong references inside closures, for example:

class ViewController {
    var closure: (() -> Void)?

    func setup() {
        closure = { [weak self] in
            guard let self = self else { return }
            // use self
        }
    }
}

• Releasing resources in lifecycle methods, such as removing observers and stopping timers.

• Using autoreleasepool to manage temporary objects in loops if necessary.

These techniques help keep the application stable and memory-efficient.
