iPhone 6s locks up after iOS10 update

This "lock up" can happen at anytime. I've never had to restart my phone but in the last 36 hours i've had to force reboot it (Hold home and Power button) because I get no response from the anything other than that command.

it just locked up on me on youtube app and I could nothing and the app was only taking up half the screen in landscape mode.

If I could go back to IOS9 i would....

Apps i normally am using are Downcast, FB, Instagram, Espn Fantasy, Words with Friends.

Anyone else have this?

iPhone 6s, iOS 9.0.2

Same issue here.
I installed IOS 10 yesterday and I've had to reboot my phone 10-15 times because it keeps freezing.
Now its completely unresponsive, I cant even force reboot.

This is happening to my iPhone 6s as well. Not that often as others have mentioned in this thread. About 3-4 times in last 48 hours. Didn't see this issue with IOS 9.x. Hard reboot is still working for me though.

This makes me wonder what QA does apple has. This is there most important piece of software, I would have expected them to do much much thorough testing. Also considering that Apple doesn't have so many device models out there as compared to, lets say Samsung, I am surprised we are seeing this issue.

I went ahead and reverted back to 9.3.5 and haven't had an issue since. Definitely a problem with my phone on iOS10. I won't be updating anytime soon😠

How did you downgrade? From what I know you can't downgrade through standard means. May be I am missing something here.
