iPhone 5 Needs at Least Daily Rebooting

I

iMore Question

With IOS 10.3.2 (14F89) on my iPhone 5 (MD66422/A) am having trouble using the live-stream app from NPR affiliates, KQED and KALW, I very frequently need to 'reboot' the phone or I get an error message "There was a problem downloading the audio." Is this a known bug or a 'gentle nudge' to buy a new phone? Tonight I tried an Ookla speed test. It loaded very slowly. Once loaded the ping test failed. I rebooted my internet router/wifi and had the same behavior. I rebooted the phone and was able to run a normal speed test. I expect the phone to not work properly in the morning. The phone shows 51.53 GB of 60.11 GB available, 13 applications, 1112 photos, and 8 videos. It anything else in Settings>General>About diagnostic?

thanks

Seems to be a connection issue more so than the phone. Being that it is slow to load those things you mentioned makes it seem like it is something with your internet (wifi/lte)

Thank you, Rebooting my ISP provided Pace5031NV FTTN gateway worked. The Wifi was working for everything else so I didn't suspect it at all.
