My iPod keeps freezing and controlling itself

My iPod touch 5th generation keeps freezing at random and sometimes

starts to control itself and there isn't anything I can do while it's going it.

I've tried rebooting and resetting and it still does it. What do I do?

Not knowing what you meant by "reset", try:

- Reset all settings

Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.

All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.

- Restore from backup. See:

- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.
