iOS 11 iMessage locking/freezing when sharing photo
Since I purchased iPhone 8 Plus, if I have a photo and I go to the bottom left and tap on the Share icon it brings up all the icons for Message, Mail, Airdrop, etc, that is fine, but once I tap on Message, nothing. It acts like I did not tap on Message. In order to fix I have to go to cancel, wait a few seconds, and then try again. Sometimes as soon as I tap on Message it pops up in a message works fine. Is this an iOS 11 issue or hardware related? Pictures are not large files, just screen shots usually.
This is what I have done so far:
-cleaned out all iMessages (thinking I had too many and it was loading in the background from images and gifs)
-Wiped phone and restored via iCloud and iTunes, no difference
Thank You
iPhone 8 Plus, iOS 11.1
