The iPhone has a reputation to work perfectly without constantly causing troubles. But sometimes, it does start acting up with random crashes or freezing the home screen. So, here is a guide to tell you how to fix the general buggy behavior of your iPhone.

Correct Glitches and Bugs With This Simple Step

Force restarting your iPhone can fix random issues and bugginess. This approach will often cure a frozen iPhone, the one which is running slow or if your iPhone isn’t staying connected to Wi-Fi. The process to force restarting an iPhone varies upon the iPhone model you have:

  • If your iPhones have a home button, then press the home button and the lock/wake button simultaneously for about 10 seconds, or until the Apple logo comes up.
  • If you own an iPhone model that has Face ID, then press and release the following buttons in the respective order: the volume up, then volume down followed by the side button for about 10 seconds, after which you should see the Apple logo.

Whichever method you might be used to force restart, one thing needs to be taken care of. That us, you should not let go of the button(s) until you see the Apple logo appear on your phone’s screen. Once your phone is back on, unlock it using your passcode as you would generally do. Now, it should be free of any performance lags. 

How to Deal With Poor Battery Life

The best way to deal with poor battery life is to check which apps or services are consuming the maximum battery and then handling them accordingly. You can see the battery consumption of each app in a chart by navigating to Settings > Battery. The graph chart will display the battery usage by the hour, along with a list of apps and services and the amount of battery used by them.

If you find any app running in the background for no reason, consider turning it off from working in the background. If a particular app is running in the background that means, the app can refresh and update itself without you putting in any command. On one hand, it is recommended to keep applications like Outlook running in the background, so your inbox can keep on refreshing. On the other hand, it is ideal to keep an application like Facebook from running in the background, as it might not be that important for you to keep it refreshed all the time. In such a case, you can disable the app’s ability to refresh itself by navigating to the Settings app, then General > Background App Refresh, and turn the slider off for Facebook. Here, you will notice a whole list of apps and services on your iPhone. You may consider turning off all the apps that you don’t need to update in the background.

Running Low on Storage Space?

Although with iCloud, an Apple user is unlikely to run low on storage space. But still, Apple has provided all the iOS users a storage management tool that shows what is taking up space along with recommendations to fix the problem. Navigate to Settings > General > iPhone Storage and wait while the information loads. A detailed list of recommendations will appear, go through this list to see what Apple has to suggest to you. Also, check out the list of apps to see which ones are consuming the most storage. If you tap on a particular, you will get more information, including options to delete data associated with the app.

More Common Issues and Quick Fixes

Your iPhone, of course, can face other issues as well. So, here are a few more simple fixes to try:

  • Something as simple as pending software updates can cause issues on your iPhone. So, to check and install the latest version, navigate to Settings > General > Software update.
  • The continuous crashing of an app while you are trying to open it can be annoying. In such a case, check for any pending update in the App Store. If you find that your app is up to date and still it is acting up. Consider deleting and then reinstall the app.
  • If your iPhone is struggling to stay connected to a Wi-Fi network, try turning on Airplane Mode for a few seconds then turn it off.

If all else fails, you still have an Apple Support app to look up to. Download, install and start a chat session on the support app. We hope that now your iPhone is running bug-free as it ideally should.
