Ok that's not common by any means. Maybe a custom ROM or a new phone is in order?

Personally I reboot my iphone once a year. It also reboots overnight every 3 months or so for software updates, but that's often not observable because apps restore their state.

Pretty sure it's not uncommon on Android for people to reboot every couple weeks or so: https://www.reddit.com/r/GalaxyS21/comments/prdfpf/how_often...

Not due to the above (the reboot need isn't frequent enough to bother me), but for other reasons, possibly? It's not high priority for me but I've been thinking about it. Thing is, I love my phone otherwise. An insane amount of resources go into making hardware like this, and the planet's already trashed enough as is; I hate throwing out hardware that works fine just for random software glitches I can easily put up with.

Maybe iPhone is better about this?


Huh? I probably reboot my phone once a week at least. I would argue once a year is far from normal.


> that's not common by any means

Pretty common, I second the GP.

> I reboot my iphone once a year.

I wonder how many times per year the phone reboots by itself to install OS updates?


I literally answered that in the next sentence after looking up the iOS release log.
