Hi All. Sorry to bother with this. Starting about a month ago (May 2025), my formerly trusty old iPhone 8 Plus started crashing and re-starting. It's now doing it several times a day – various apps and even in the middle of phone calls. I was concerned that it might be the result of a malware hack, so I called Apple Support to make a Genius Bar appointment, but the rep said, essentially, 'the phone is old; they do that; time for a newer phone.' That might be right, but they would say that, wouldn't they? 🤣🤣🤣

By any chance, does anyone recognize this and know of a fix? Thanks so much
