Iphone users having downloaded the newest IOS update are (sometimes) experiencing freezing or the phone closing down coming out of no-where.  It was happening to my phone since I downloaded the update and this morning I couldn't get it to open no matter what I did....  I tried everything I knew how to do so I went on line to explore what people were saying about it.  Apparently it's quite widespread.... 

I tried what one person said worked for him.... I turned off Siri!  I waited a few minutes  and then viola... I was able to open it, slide it anywhere I wanted and open whatever apps I wanted!  It's been working all day!

Just thought I'd throw that out there for anyone experiencing this..... 

No more Siri for me until they come out with yet again another upgrade....

@Q4u  I downloaded that and have had no problems but thanks for posting so we know.  I hate these downloads cause you always wonder if you are going to have issues!

Always good to know the glitches when there's an update. I usually wait weeks before upgrading. I'm in no hurry with this one. Thanks for posting.

UPDATE:  An update regarding this problem with the iPhone 6Plus....  Had my phone professionally looked at and evaluated and it is NOT a software update problem/glitch or virus.  IT IS A HARDWARE PROBLEM with the screen!  

The professionals took my phone apart and reconnected the leads to the screen.  I'm to use the phone for a week to see if it freezes again.  So far (since 12:00 noon yesterday) no freezing... I am cautiously optimistic that they fixed.  If the problem starts again they will give me a new phone (I'm still under the warranty).

If you're having a problem like this.... keep in mind that it might be hardware-related.
