<\/p>\nIPHONE owners are warning each other over two dangerous signs you've made a big mistake.<\/p>\n
If your iPhone screen ever becomes suddenly blurring and app icons start to disappear, you'll need to act fast.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
It's a big problem with your device that can be easily fixed \u2013\u00a0but only if you're quick.<\/p>\n
The problem came to light after a Reddit user made a post showing an image of a blurred iPhone screen with several icons missing.<\/p>\n
They said the phone, which belonged to a friend, experienced the problem first thing in the morning.<\/p>\n
"She woke up with half the apps missing but \u2018still there\u2019 and her screen was blurry," the Reddit user wrote.<\/p>\n
"Has anyone else had the same? She could not click on the apps that were gone, but the app that were shown seemed to work.<\/p>\n
"Actually occurred twice during the day. A quick turn off and on fixed it but missed a few critical notifications."<\/p>\n
Other Reddit users were quick to respond with the cause of the problem.<\/p>\n
One said: "Very very very low on storage."<\/p>\n
<\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n Another said: "This happened with my old 6S when it completely ran out of storage."<\/p>\n And one replied: "Critically low on storage."<\/p>\n A different user added: "Storage full. If your friend goes any longer without freeing up storage, the iPhone will likely start boot-looping to the point where it won't turn on."<\/p>\n Once you reach very low levels of storage on any device, it will begin experiencing issues.<\/p>\n In fact, Apple openly states on its website that running too low on storage can cause your iPhone performance to suffer.<\/p>\n "If your device is low on storage, iOS or iPadOS automatically frees up space while installing an app, updating iOS or iPadOS, downloading music, recording videos, and more," Apple explained.<\/p>\n "For best performance, try to maintain at least 1GB of free space.<\/p>\n "If your available storage is consistently less than 1GB, your device might slow down as iOS or iPadOS repeatedly makes room for more content."<\/p>\n You'll need to quickly free up space if this is the case, or you risk experiencing more serious issues.<\/p>\n If you go into Settings > General > iPhone Storage, you'll be able to see how much space you have remaining.<\/p>\n And you should also see recommendations to free up storage.<\/p>\n You can tap any of those recommendations to quickly complete them, instantly clearing storage.<\/p>\n![](\"https:\/\/www.thesun.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/RB-COMP-NEW-GAZA-3.jpg\")
