Or you woke up morning but find iPhone 8 with a frozen screen and remaining unresponsive, where you can’t swipe, touch, and restart the device? Relax, it could be confused at first when meeting an iPhone 8 with a frozen screen, but it’s easy to fix.

1:03 When you iPhone 8 is frozen, the first thing to do is do a hard reset. This does a system refresh by turning the phone off then back on without affecting any data to unfreeze your iPhone 8.

2:01 If your iPhone 8 still keeps freezing after the forced restart, try to update it in recovery mode using the latest version of iTunes or Finder to help resolve frozen display problem.

3:08 If the update fails too, your final step to fix an iPhone 8 with a frozen screen is to bring it back to it original status. All the data will be wiped clean so make a backup first before continuing.

Particularly, if your iPhone 8 screen freezes randomly only when you open only one or two apps, the apps could be at fault. You’ll need to uninstall and then reinstall the app, or remove it completely if the iPhone 8 frozen screen problem remains.
