Suggestion:

  1. Try Apple Support App on iPhone.
  2. If you have a Mac, connect the iPhone to your Mac and make sure everything is backed up properly, then reset your iPhone.
  3. If you do not have access to a Mac, you can also make an appointment with your local Apple Retail store and they can reset your iPhone.

I did experience a similar problem which caused me to reset the iPhone. At the time, I chose option 3 and iPhone returned to normal.
