Advice for troubleshooting frequent random iPhone resprings? - eviltoast

For several months now, but with increasing frequency in recent days, my iPhone 13 mini will randomly respring (crash to black screen with spinner, then back to the Lock Screen) multiple times a day. I notice this happening often within the first 30 seconds after unlocking my phone, but it could also be happening in my pocket throughout the day without me knowing.

When iPhone resprings, is there any record of the cause logged that would help me narrow down what app or setting could be causing this?

    I had this issue with my iPhone 12 mini and I contacted Apple about it. They ended up taking it in for a free repair and if memory serves it had something to do with a faulty Bluetooth or LTE radio.

    I feel the most likely thing would be a bad battery. But if it’s not the battery then it gets expensive because intermittent issues are always the hardest to debug in hardware.

      But you’re thinking hardware and not software? In that case, sounds like I need to book a visit to my local Apple Store.

        Yes I believe it’s hardware. You wouldn’t see consistent issues like this ubiquitously. I could honestly be the RAM/memory as well because on my old Mac I use to get constant beach balls and it turned out HDD and 1 ram stick had issues.
