HEY 

 

Any advice appreciated

 

On unlocking my phone this morning the home screen is frozen to an open email and i cannot close it down.

 

The lock screen is active and i can unlock the phone, the time in the corner changes and the battery symbol charges when plugged in. I can use the torch and ask basic command through siri e.g play spotify etc.I can also receive notifications/messages on my locked screen but they will not open otherwise.

 

I have connected it to my Mac book air and as connected selected the "trust this device" but it fails.

 

I have tried to turn the Device off but with the frozen screen the swipe off does not appear.

 

im currntly awaitng my battery to run out to see if a restart will help

 

Thanks for any advice in advance.

 

M

Hold power and volume down together and keep holding until Apple logo appears on screen.
