You can also try backing up your iPhone and restoring the iOS. This will erase everything then you can restore fomr your backup to bring back you apps and all of the associated data. If you decide to do the easier steps of deleting and reinstalling the individual app, you will loose the data contained within that app, unless there is a log in account associated when you set up the app (like connect to facebook, or another internet account).

Backup, then restore iOS, then restore form backup (if you decide to do this)

I think this was because I had phone in bag before auto lock came on.. ..this happened 3 times so far.. U gh. Might have to just give it all up and invest in a new model..
