First try a Forced restart

Force restart iPhone – Apple Support (UK)

If no better

Backup, restore to factory, and restore from backup

If you can import your media to Photos or iTunes in a computer and copy important documents to a cloud server it will give you some resilience in case the restore from backup fails.

(2) Restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to factory settings - Apple Support

(3) Restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch from a backup - Apple Support


If the problem remains then do step (2) again but set up as new without restoring any backup. If that fixes it then it is probably a rogue app.

Otherwise arrange a repair
