Q: Iphone 5 shuts off completely by itself
I have an iPhone 5. For a while the battery had been expanding inside of the iPhone and it made the screen bulge outward. I took it to a store in a mall near me and they said that I needed a battery replacement. So I went online on amazon to buy a battery replacement kit and the battery came in just last Thursday. I looked up a tutorial on youtube on how to replace the battery myself and it seemed to be fine for the next couple days. The just on Saturday I was using my phone for social media and the phone just completely shut off. I figured my battery had just died so I turned it back on but when the lock screen came up I still had like 50% left on the phone. So I charged it back up and it was working fine. Ever since then though, my phone has been shutting off more frequently. Right now it's at the point where if I'm in am app for just one minute it shuts off. What should I do?
iPhone 5, iOS 9.3.5
