My Iphone 7 keeps shutting down and asking for my passcode

[Anonymous]

This morning I have opened my iphone 7 to use, as I keep my phone locked with a passcode. after about 3 minutes it shuts down and goes back to the passcode page. when I put in my passcode it has closed the app I was working on and gone back to the home page. 

I has been doing this now for 2 hours!

Any tips

Nothing has happened to it in the night? and it was working correctly yesterday.

many thanks Trudy

I know it has. I googled them before I gave my first reply and then suggested fixes from MacWorld. I was talking about giving them a call which is a bit different.

Ok

Anyway for all that, lets hope a fix will be been found soon....but as I know nothing about iPhones, I shall back away..

It's a different, alien world for me...

Seems strange this is happening at the same time as a big ios update is released. Can't be coincidental surely?

And not something they need after the password bug! Completely different things but even so....

I guess this is why I did not get the 2nd December bug as I had the beta of 11.2 running then last night a full 11.2 at 1.8gb

They probably broke something else whilst fixing the password bug....
