iPhone randomly restarts

Hey guys! Lately my iPhone13 has been randomly restarting. When this happens, a black screen appears alongside with a spinning loading symbol (I’ve attached a similar photo of what this looks like). When the phone does restart, it doesn’t refresh any of my apps like a normal restart would. If I was watching a YouTube video or an Instagram video before the restart, I would still be able to go back into the app and watch view that same video. Also, the restart thing does not kick me out of FaceTime either.


if anyone could tell me what’s happening, or any solutions, that would be very helpful. Thanks heaps.

Go to Settings > Privacy and Security > Analytics and Improvements > Analytics Data then you scroll thru this page without clicking on anything in the list. Do you see the word Panic multiple times in the past couple weeks?

That is what’s called a “respring” it restarts the springboard, on another note have you ever jailbroken your device because if you have, and you are currently in an unjailbroken state, reactivate your jailbreak, if you bought this second hand the previous owner must have jailbroken it before, if you are on iOS 15.8 - 16.1.2 you can fix your issue

Ahhh, thanks for clarifying. Next time it happens try a forced restart:


First take off any case. Then:


Press and very quickly release the volume up button. > Immediately press and very quickly release by the volume down button > Immediately press and hold down the side button and keep holding the side button until the Apple logo appears, release the side button. If your iPhone won't turn on or is frozen - Apple Support
