My 6s plus occasionally freezes up. Maybe it’s not freezing but the touch is not working

Maybe a President Trump will FORCE A RECALL of Apple Phones, especially since they are Publicly backing Hillary, it would not bother me one bit to see Tim Cook shell out Hundreds of Billions of Dollars to Fix FAULTY MERCHANDISE sold to an unsuspecting public.

I've not experienced that with my 6S. How much memory do you have on yours? Have you quit out of the apps you have running? How about doing a force quit of the iPhone itself to clear all caches? That's a good idea from time-to-time.

That’s pretty common. My wife’s 6 S plus locks up at least once a day, but it looks good. We just reboot.

Usually happens after a phone call.

My 6+ had audio issues (mostly related to recording video or voice) where sound would go from normal to a loud “white noise”.

It finally got consistent enough that I took it in to Apple Store/Genius Bar.

they tried to diagnose and got nowhere with it after running some kind of diagnostic test. It worked when I walked out of the store - but the issue returned with a vengeance literally 5 minutes after I left - so went back in - they fixed it at no cost (had to replace the entire screen assembly - though there wasn’t an issue with the screen) - the microphone that was causing the issue is part of that assembly.

The phone’s warranty literally was up the day before...

BUT - with the repair came an intermittent issue - the phone will at random become totally unresponsive to touch. The buttons for volume and sleep still work as usual- but touching or doing anything ON the screen does nothing. This may last for just a few seconds, or can actually last for several minutes (can’t even answer calls). BUT - if you press the sleep button, then wake the phone right back up - it works properly again.

But this is so intermittent that it can’t be diagnosed/reproduced.
