Hello, Mominmauritius.

It's my understanding that your iPhone goes to the lock screen after a few minutes of use. I may be able to help you with this. Does it go to the lock screen even if you're using an app? If you haven't done so already, restart your iPhone. Then if the issue still occurs check your settings for auto-lock. Go to Settings > Display & Brightness > Auto-Lock. Try adjusting this setting and then see if the issue still persists.

Let me know if this helps.

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

Cheers!

My 7Plus just started doing this tonight. The application closes, screen goes black with spinning circle and then the lock screen pops up. I restarted it, hard reset it and turned off auto lock completely. I have only had this phone a week. I cant do anything on it right now, it does it in about a minute of use every time. Please help!
