Anytime I use a app or safari sometimes my phone will go to a black screen with a spinning circle for a few seconds then back to the lock screen so I have unlock it to use my phone again.

Any help and any possible way to check in settings?

I've had this exact problem. Usually only happens when I'm in message app and trying to send a pic. I have the mb iPhone 7+ 128 for at&t.
 
I have the same issue. I think it's the springboard crashing. What I don't know is if this is a hardware issue, or a software issue.
 
I've had this happen twice so far since I got this phone on 9/24. Just happened a few minutes ago when I was randomly recording a video and pressed the 2x button and it crashed. Hopefully it's just a software issue and can be fixed with update. iPhone 7+ 128GB
 
Yea I usually have my iPhones jalbroken so when it first happened i thought the springboard crashed and was in safe mode by than I was like wait this phone isn't jailbroken lol.

Just happened to me again the now.

Either it's the latest update or there's something wrong.

Going to go on apple chat and see if there's a issue.

Same issue 7+ 128 GB ATT. Has happened at least 3 times since I got my phone 10 days ago.
 
Just came off Apple Chat.

Guy said they've had no reported issues so far and it could be something to do with Auto-lock. So i've changed my auto lock time to 4 minutes instead of 1. I've to leave some apps open in the background to see if the problem continues and I've got back into touch with them if it happens again.

Seems like BS since anytime this happens any apps I had opened before the 'respring' restart when I switch back to them.

Just happened again so what I was told to do earlier didn't work.

Either it's the phone or recent update
