iPhone keeps freezing after iOS 14 update

iPhone X keeps freezing with new iOS 14 update. Will freeze in any app or even sitting idle and will go to black apple screen and restart. Factory reset did not fix it.

@TKBPARIS This is not the same problem I have. In my case and many others here, the home screen freezes, you can not swipe between the screens. Let alone open an app. What are non-Apple apps? My iPhone is not yail braked. I think it has something to do with the introduction/change of the widgets. I have an iPhone 11 Pro Max.

Software Version 14.0.1 on iPhone 11 Pro Max, removed all the widgets and hoped for better. But the phone still freezes very often when I start using it. Very annoying, especially if you want to catch a moment with your camera. Or start an app to pay for a delivery and the delivery boy has to wait for the iPhone to react. If Steve knew this, man, he would be so angry.

Same here. I was trying to avoid the update, but my answer phone stopped working, and my carrier suggested it as a fix.


It didnt fix it, and now this is an additional pain. The biggest problem is when I call people, it looks like the call button isnt working, but calls them in the background. This keep catching me out.


I also tried the reset advice. Zero improvement.

I'm really starting to get very frustrated.My iphone 11 pro gets completely stuck about twice a day. After a few minutes, the Apple logo appears automatically.


I've already tried everything, ios 14.1, a clean installation and even went to a premium reseller for diagnoses. They did some testing and benchmarking but couldn't find anything...

Well the evening has come and gone and mine still freezing constantly. My friends have had the same problem with iPhone after the 14. I am seriously thinking of going to a different phone system than Apple. I hate to but I just can’t do business this way and many of my friends have told me they got the Samsung and it works great no problem with the freezing.

It has been freezing sporadically for several months. I agree shame on you Apple I expected more out of you
