iPhone 5 slow

It is most likely due to one of two things: (1) iPhone is running out of free memory and paging out or (2) app is poorly written and using up lots of CPU and other resources excessively (e.g., memory, GPS).
Thanks guys its slow at anything I do like my screen always freezes unlocking the phone takes forever its slow And laggy
Yes, but you have to figure out if its a software issue that's causing your phone to be slow or hardware.
If it runs fine when restored and setup as new then its a software issue and if you restore from your old backup you might inherit that issue again.
is this normal my iphone 5 has been fine up to this point i swipe to unlock and it freezes and wont register for a minute then it unlocks that goes for swiping screens and other things
