I have just been kicked out of everything

Anyone having issues with the latest Apple IOS? I've had issues ever since I updated. I just got kicked out of everything that require passwords (I'm using safari for everything right now). It's asking for wi fi password, any app that need password, Appleid password, everything. Is it safe to renter my passwords or is there a way that someone has somehow accessed my phone and is trying to get me to input my password?

I have an 5s and latest IOS

I am using the same iPhone as you. I have a couple questions so I can help you out. Did you recently update to iOS 9? If you did I believe you had to enter that in. Kind of like a factory rese. That is normal every iOS device may do that. Also it is safe to enter in information. It is VERY HARD for someone to hack an iPhone, iPad, iPod or Mac due to its rigerus security so your okay. If you notice sevre issues reset via iTunes or factory reset. - Zach

I updated the IOS last week. After updating if I tried to use the mail app it would just keep crashing. After numerous tries I could finally get in. It started doing it again today. Either yesterday or the other day it would repeatedly crash on me when I tried accessing the Facebook app. Now, as stated before just a little while ago, I got kicked out of anything and everything that requires a password.

At this point try a factory reset. Or reinstall iOS 9. By doing this [1. Turn your iPhone OFF completel 2. Plug into Windows PC/Mac 3. Hold the HOME button down until iTunes logo appears. 4. Follow wkat iTunes says to do. ] I don't suggest that but try to at least reset your iPhone to factory mode and set up as you would. - Best wishes Zach Do not use reinstalation unless really needed. if factory reset doesn't work I suggest beinging it in to a Genius.

Unless your phone is jailbroken you are not hacked. Does the same behavior occur when you are not using wifi or using wifi at a different location?

Some things to try:

Reset network settings: settings>general>reset network settings (Wifi password needed)

Force restart: hold sleep/wake and home button until Apple logo appears

Reset settings>settings>general>reset>reset all settings (no data is lost, but all settings are back to default.)

If it continues after the following try to restore your phone and don't use a backup. It may also help to contact the developers of the apps you are having issues with. Lastly, make sure you have some free space on your phone for the best performance. -AJ

AJ not sure if you are on to something regarding space. I just checked and it says zero bytes available. Maybe others can post if they are maxed or at least almost maxed. My phone is not jail broken. I'll know tomorrow if this still happens under a different wifi network. I'm not using wifi now because it kicked me out of wifi too and I haven't logged back in. So it is happening when not using wifi.
