Reporting a consistent system-wide freeze followed by a Kernel Panic when attempting to use the "Add to Home Screen" feature in Safari. This issue has persisted across multiple recent iOS updates and leads to a device bootloop.
Technical Details:
The UI becomes entirely unresponsive for exactly 180 seconds. Analytics logs indicate a userspace watchdog timeout caused by SpringBoard failing to check in.
Panic String:
panic(cpu 0 caller 0xffffffff0422ccb9): userspace watchdog timeout: no successful checkins from SpringBoard (0 induced crashes) in 180 seconds
Steps to Reproduce:
Open Safari and navigate to any URL.
Tap the Share icon.
Select Add to Home Screen.
The device UI freezes immediately. After 3 minutes, the system triggers a reboot.
Environment:
• Device: 16PM

• OS Version: 26.4 RC and Beta 3 v1
• Feedback ID: FB22286846 (Full sysdiagnose and panic logs are attached to the original Feedback Assistant report).
Questions:
Is this a known regression involving the web clip background daemon, or does the 180s timeout suggest a specific database corruption within the Home Screen layout?
