Has your phone ever suddenly crashed?

Has your phone ever suddenly crashed? Did it recover? What caused it?

Fortunately, I've never had that issue before. I've been an iPhone user for at least ten years now, and I've never had an issue with any of them. They get sluggish and need to be upgraded, but I'm still able to turn on my old phones today.

Back before I was an iPhone user, I did have my phone stolen though, and I never got that back. Lost a lot of photos back then because of it.

I have an iPhone and it has never crashed, but does get sluggish and needs to be upgraded.

Never had it crash on me, but it's had some strange glitches before and random restarts.

I've had apps crash and take my phone with it. A hard restart fixes it and then acts like it didn't just betray me.

When I had my Android phone before I accidentally dropped it and cracked the screen badly, I had no issues with my phone crashing.

My daughter had an iPhone she was no longer using after she upgraded her phone last Christmas so I moved to that one and I have noticed a few times it has crashed and I have had to turn it off and on again.

I had a phone go bad on me and just quit working. I ended up having to buy a new one. Oh well, nothing lasts forever.

True, electronics definitely aren't built to last, always built to down to a certain level.

I think it's done on purpose that they aren't built to last. I'm thinking of one company that built something so nice that the product lasted for 20 years...and the company went out of business.

Yep, it's absolutely on purpose, built in obsolescence. It guarantees you have to replace the thing you've bought with a new one in the near future, and generates more income for them.

No, not necessarily crashing but lagging. Can remember once I tried to mine with my phone and regretted that action. my phone lagged for days.

My current mobile phone is starting to act crazy. I think I need to consult a computer technician soon.
