Iphone 11 Running Slow

Hi,


I got my iPhone 11 in September 2019 and lately it’s been running really slow. But really just with my messages, Safari & Instagram. With Instagram, I have 4 accounts on the app and when I try to go to the different accounts it freezes. Or if I try to go to the likes page, it freezes. Then I have to close the app and go back in. When I go back in, it takes about 30 seconds to reload and reopen.

With the message & Safari apps, sometime when I go to the app from the homepage it freezes. Sometimes if I wait like a minute or so, it’ll load. But majority of the time I have to close them and reopen them.

Yes these times are short, but the phone is just about a year and a half old and it’s honestly acting like a 4. Because my moms 6 is acting stronger and faster than mine.


Please help.

Thanks

Billie

iPhone 11, iOS 14
