ios 11 update phone freezing

I have had this exact problem right here. It happens when my iphone 6s auto locks or manually locked for a few minutes.

I'd press the power button to wake it and I'd get the black screen, the spin wheel comes up and takes a moment to wake.

I've tried restarts and resets but still have that problem.

MY iPhone 6 was working fine before installing the new update iOS 11 now it freezes when opening an app or while using it I just updated it a few days ago I’m very upset I don’t know what to do because my phone for work as a driver and it freezes when using the gps or using the app for work or even when going an any app, I feel like apple is doing this in purpose to force us to buy the newer models but that’s wrong because I can’t afford a new phone :/ I am

Very angry and I think I’m gonna have to switch to Samsung after being an iPhone user since the original one came out ! Apple needs to do something now ! :/

iPhone 7plus freezing frequently throughout the day. 11.01 doesn’t help at all. I’ve never had such a buggy version of iOS, and I’ve been a user since iPhone. Really poor quality control here, I’m concerned about the direction Apple is heading

iPhone 6s Plus 128gb here and after 11 update had a few issues that were annoying so I was happy to see another update so soon so updated and now the phone will lock up for up to a minute at a time now. It’s very annoying and hopefully Apple will fix that issue soon. It does not appear to be related with any app from what I can see because it’s locked up on the home screen not doing anything on the phone. I’ve noticed also that my volume buttons are not always working now as well and I hook my phone up to my car stereo via Bluetooth and play music and it used to always transmit the song data to the radio for display as well as album artwork and now it will still connect and play but I can no longer fast forward to next song and nothing is being sent to the radio as it just shows a blank screen now and I have to use phone to make changes which is more dangerous while driving so that is annoying as well. I’m hoping this will all get fixed soon with another update.

I'm having the same issue. iPhone 7+ 256gb, started the day I upgraded to iOS 11. Upgraded to 11.0.1 two days ago and still having apps freeze several times a day. Sometimes I can't even power cycle it and it takes 60-120 seconds before it just randomly starts working and processes all the clicks I did while it was frozen. I'm about ready to trade it in for a more reliable phone.

Hi, I jave 7+256gb and I have the same issue, phone is freezing randomly, I mena apps and whole system. I have already did comlete restore and it doesnt solve anything.

I cannot use the phone like this.

Fix this Apple!!!!

Experiencing the same issue here (7+) installed latest OS and now have the following issues;

Apps/lock screen freezes on “logo/welcome” screen

Volume buttons won’t work

No “now playing” on lock screen

Phone freezes then gives black screen with shutdown circle logo before restarting

Apps try to launch then close then re-open with no resolution of issue

Worst update to an OS I’ve encountered

Hi, I'm facing the same issue. Using iPhone 7 with iOS version 11.0.1

The phone just dead/freeze doesn't respond for any buttons. While am on whatsapp call the phone froze and doesn't respond at all. I tried to make a call from home line and i see that call is going through from home phone but no response on my iPhone, it doesn't even ring. Finally after trying several times to reset the phone, it worked but it kept happening. So far 3 times.

Have the same issue with iPhone 7. Usually have to reset the phone 2-3 times a day.

Went to the Apple Store, they said that problem is with software and advised me to make an iCloud backup, then restore to the newest iOS 11 from iTunes, then set up the iPhone from iCloud backup. Followed the instructions, and, unfortunately, it didn't help at all.

So, the phone is unpredictable right now and i can't trust it anymore 😟

This IOS it’s a really bad joke, i’m definetly buying a Samsung next time. It seems to me that apple don’t even care of all the problems this IOS are causing and even worse, they don’t care all the money we expend on this phones.

Really disappointed.

So we are even. This is an Apple run user-to-user technical support site, why would you thing anyone here would be interested in whatever Android phone you decided to buy?

There is one good thing for you if you go that route, it is highly unlikely you will ever do an OS update.

Off course i know it’s a apple support forum, that’s why i’m posting (and all the others that have this stupid problems with a high end phone), so they (apple) know that we are having a lot of problems that we should not be having.

And yes, maybe not having to update to ios againg is the solution, and maybe i’m not gonna have all this problems again, who knows? Sometimes it’s good not to be such a funboy. I’ve been using apple phones since the very first one, and i,ve never had such a bad time with an update....we are on 2017, remeber that.

Cheers

I’m not an expert on this, but your phone freezing could have something to do with storage (updates use storage). If your storage is full you could perhaps delete some apps or photos and see if that works?

Same issue. iPhone SE less than a year old. Not acceptable to have to do a factory reset. I have to hard reset 3-4 times a day. It seems to *really* dislike following links that open other apps - for example clicking someones profile link in instagram.

iOS just gets worse and worse and worse.

Mine too:( got a iPhone 6 and after the update to 11.01 min phone keeps freezing about 10-20 Times a day with normal use! *** is the problem with this update??!! It has to come a 11.02 Very Very soon! Luckily i was able to Tell all My friend thats has iPhone to NOT!!!! Update their phones!!
