iPhone 6s Plus running iOS 10.0.2 keep crashing when I'm doing certain tasks

My iPhone 6s keeps crashing when I do certain tasks like change the wallpaper, switching Safari tabs, going to book markes and scrolling all the way down. I can't seem to find anything on the web about these issues, is anyone else having these problems?

iPhone 6s Plus, iOS 10.0.2, null

If you restored your iPhone to factory, which is what I'm guessing you may be referring to with factory reset, and attempted to use the device without adding a backup or other content and it still had a problem, then I would make an appointment at the Genius Bar of the nearest Apple Store to have the hardware checked. Restoring the device to factory loads a fresh version of iOS to the device and it should work fine then unless there is a hardware problem. If you restored a backup, it is possible there is corrupt data on the backup, so you would need to restore to factory and test without adding additional content. Use iTunes on your Mac or PC to restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to factory settings - Apple Support

Everyone I know using the new iOS on iPhone 6S series devices, including myself before I purchased my iPhone 7 did not have these type of issues with crashing. I would not wait until iOS 10.1, since that is not a set time for release. I would reset the Genius Bar appointment. If you did that restore and still have a problem, it is not the iOS that is the problem.


Since you repeated factory reset, which is not a support term, could you please tell me what you did, so I'm sure that you did what you needed to do.
