You can have an IOS upgrade installed over night. I think you double tap
on the install later button and then as you said, you'll need to accept
the license agreement, but then IOS will install itself overnight. I'm
not sure, but maybe something like this happened in this case. Here's an
article that talks about this new feature in IOS 9:

Hi Terri,
First of all, if you are talking about an iOS update then it would not
have updated automatically in the middle of the night. iOS updates are
automatically downloaded to your phone if it is connected to WiFi and
plugged in, but they simply will not install unless you tap on two
separate “I Agree” buttons.
Anyhow, the 9.3.1 update is a good update and you shouldn’t have the
issues you are having. If hard rebooting and doing a Reset Network
Settings does not help I strongly recommend you spend the time it takes
to do a full restore preferably via iTunes and to then set up the phone
as a new phone instead of restoring a backup. Backups can also “backup”
issues and when you restore the issues can return. I recently restored a
backup of my wife’s iPhone 6 to the 6S she is now using and it seemed
that the battery was not lasting as long as it should. I ended up
restoring via iTunes which essentially means you reinstall iOS 9.3.1 and
then set up the phone as a new phone which means all you have on the
phone are the Apple stock apps.
Next I went through Settings and made sure everything was as it should
be (turn off Wi-Fi Assist in Cellular, make sure Background App Refresh
was off for unimportant apps, turn off non-important items under Privacy
> Location Services > System, set up what should be backed up in iCloud
etc.).
I next put about 15 apps she uses on a regular bases back on the phone
(I chose to do so via iTunes, but you can of course reinstall them via
the App Store and the Purchased apps area).
After that I arranged the apps on the home screen the way I like which
of course was not how she liked it (women **sigh**).
Then I set up again her email account, signed into all her other apps
like Facebook/Messenger, Google/Youtube, made sure the Sonos app was
connected to our Sonos music system and all that.
Lastly I synced her music and ringtones back to the phone. She uses
Dropbox to backup her photos so nothing to worry there and now I
installed OneDrive on her phone since I bought Office 365 which gives
each of us 1 Tb of online storage so I turned off the automatic camera
roll backup in Dropbox and enabled it in OneDrive.
In the end I probably spend about 3 to 4 hours doing all that and it
paid off. I unplugged her 6S yesterday morning and this morning, after
basically 24 hours, the battery is down to 60%. A 40% drop in 24 hours I
think is pretty good and it really seems to have made a difference.
I suggest you do the same. Depending on how many apps you have on the
phone doing a restore and setting up as a new phone can be a bit of a
process, but every so often I find it’s worth it.
A little tip, when you start an email and after you type in somebody’s
email address, try to tap the return button (you may have to do so
twice). For me this works like pressing the tab key on the computer and
it takes me from the “To” field to the subject field and puts focus
there. After I type my subject line I double tap the return key again
and focus jumps into the message body field where I can start to type my
message or start dictating it by doing a 2-finger double tap.
And one last piece of advice: whenever an iOS update is available, make
sure before you do the update that you empty your app switcher and, as a
minimum, reboot the phone. I always do a Reset Network Settings before
any iOS update and while this requires me to re-enter my Wi-Fi passwords
for my home and work, I find it can avoid potential issues.
Best regards,
Sieghard

Hi everyone,
I really hope someone can help me. I am at a loss as to what to do. It
is really driving me crazy! I want to throw my phone in the river!
I guess I would say this started happening a couple weeks ago. It was
before I took the update. I did not want the update. It automatically
updated in the middle of the night, which really pissed me off.
Anyway, I have a 5S. It has worked well since I got it. I want to say
that I got it in February, when I upgraded it for my for ass. I love the
phone, and I have overall really enjoyed it. However, it is started
freezing up a lot! I don't know why. It seems to do it out of the blue.
It will do it if I am sitting here playing with it and it's not
charging, and it would do it if I am playing with it, and it is
charging. So that does not seem to make a difference. I am my farted
boyfriend to take a look at it, and I turned off voiceover. He said when
he tried to go to different amps, or just move the screen around, he had
no problems. This really disappointed me, because I am guessing this
must be an accessibility issue. But really I don't know.
For instance, just a few minutes ago I tried to write this email. It
took me a while to get the name of the group in the from box, then I
couldn't get into the subject box, no matter what I did. I had to reboot
the phone three or four times power it down three or four different
times, rebooted again after I powered it down, and right now it seems to
be OK
I even left it off for about 10 to 15 minutes, after one of the times I
shut it down. But as soon as I turned it back on, and unlocked it, and
started to go through my list of apps, it started doing that shit again.
It won't let me swipe the screen. It is don't get frozen. But dinner
will let me swipe, but it might not open the app.
I feel like I am on a roller coaster ride with this thing. I don't know
what to do about it. I don't know if I should go to AT&T, or if I should
go to the Apple Store? Or I don't know if there is a thick that I can do
for it at home. I am really hoping there is, because I can forward to
really spend any money on it. I feel very frustrated! I wanted to throw
that thing! I want to smash it! But deep down not really, because it's
my main mode of doing things, and my main piece of accessibility. Well I
do have a laptop. But I use my phone a heck of a lot! Does anyone have
any idea as to what could be going on?
Why is the rebooting affect not working?
Why is turning it off and on not working? Has anyone else seen this issue?
How do I take care of it? I seriously I'm going to start pulling my hair
out! Any help with this issue would be so very much appreciated! You
would become my new best friend. LOL!
Thank you so much!
Terri
