Why does my app freezes whenever I go to another app for about 5-8 mins I go back it’s frozen now I have to close app refresh I have iPhone 13 pro max

Hello Naterackss,

First, we'll want to determine if this issue is system-wide, or isolated to specific apps.

If this occurs with all apps, About iOS or iPadOS performance on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch covers some great information, and can often help determine what may be causing performance issues. The list below will be a great place to start.

• Check your network conditions
• Make sure you have enough storage
• Leave Low Power Mode off when you don't need it
• Keep your device from getting too hot or cold
• Look at your battery health

If this is occurring with specific apps, updates can often include fixes for unexpected behavior. We'd recommend updating the device first, then installing any available updates in the App Store.

1. Update your iPhone or iPad
2. How to manually update apps on your Apple device

Cheers!
