Why do the bottom 4 apps keep disappearing on my iPhone 7?

[behalex92]

A few times a day the bottom four apps on my screen will disappear comeplyely or partially when I unlock my iPhone 7. And then I have to open close the phone and apps or just use the phone like it is and eventually the apps reappear. I have the latest IOS. Has anyone else had this problem/know a solution?

Because IOS 11 is absolutely horrible and buggy.

Not had the problem, but can't discount it just because it hasn't happened on my phone.

iOS 11 is very buggy, and different people face different stuff. Maybe try a reset or if you aren't averse to having beta software, try getting the latest beta version

It happened to me once, actually three if the four disappeared, the phone app was still in the far right, (it’s usually located in the far left). I rebooted my phone and it hasn’t happened since. Weird, for sure.

Try Reset All Settings.

Go to Settings >General >Reset >Reset All Settings. This resets to default everything in Settings, including notifications, alerts, brightness, and clock settings like wake up alarms.

I agree with the others. Sometimes after updates things, on all platforms, can get a little buggy. Reset and it should clear things up.

And, of course, iOS 11 is not horrible.

Weird, I've never seen that before. I've got iOS 11.2 running on one of my iPhone 7 phones (I've got two - a 256GB rose gold and 256GB matte black) and have never seen that before. Is that really an iOS 11 issue?

Hopefully, a reset will fix the issue.
I’m running iOS 11 on my 7+ and I haven’t experienced such issues.
