Phone screen freezing after upgrade to IOS 10.0.1 on 6 Plus

[Meredith Hill]

The phone screen freezes and cannot open any apps, have to reboot phone over and over again.

Mine too. Freezes forcing me to turn it off and on at least once a day since the IOS 10 update.

Same. Highly frustrating.

I have a 1st gen iPhone 6Plus, and I am also experiencing the screen becoming unresponsive. I have re-started my device several times. Initially, I thought maybe it was due to a new game that I downloaded, but I have since removed that game, and the problem still persists.

My next step is a clean install of IOS 10 and see if the problem still persists. I HATE to do that, though because now a backup of the phone will capture the issue, what even it may be and would simply transfer during the re-install. And if we have specific configurations on our apps we now cannot capture the specific configurations in a backup, unless the app itself calls home and retrieves the configuration settings from the app’s server. The only way to isolate the issue to see if it is a IOS issue running on on the hardware, without any 3rd party apps running.

My iPhone has been frozen on lock screen for the last hour after downloading IOS 10 and I really don’t know what to do.. it’s unresponsive too any touch.

Hello,
My phone is unusable over 50% of everyday after the IOS 10 update, constantly freezing and unresponsive dialing phone numbers, playing music, etc. I have to reboot phone twice a day. This is an iPhone 6, I hope there is a silver bullet coming in the next update quick to eradicate this!

I am having the same issue!

FREEZE, FREEZE, FREEZE since the upgrade. Not to mention that everything was changed in some way just to make it new. What is wrong with the old way everything looked. I hate this upgrade.

Mine too…..mostly on texting and email…..I really believe it is a space issue…..what is the size of your phone? mine is 16GB. My son’s is 64 and he is having no freezing issues.
