I was on my phone when it randomly made an electronic zapping noise with pink bars all over the screen. It then turned off for a little and turned back on with the apple logo like it would after a restart. There’s been no problems since but I was wondering if there is something wrong with my device.

It will be very difficult to determine if it was a software glitch or first signs of a hardware failure unless it gets looked at in a Genius Bar.

If you are near the end of your warranty period it may be a good idea to contact Apple Support so that the complaint was registered within the warranty period.

Meanwhile backup regularly, as a matter of course anyway..
