While the iPhone and iPad are great, well-made computing devices, like any such products, they can become slow or even freeze up from time to time. There are a number of causes for these issues, as well as an array of potential solutions.
Here's what you can do if your iPhone or iPad is slow or unresponsive.
1. Kill recent apps in your Fast App Switcher. Perhaps a rogue process is consuming your device's memory.
2. Restart your iPhone (soft or hard reset).
3. Delete and re-install any apps that repeatedly give you problems.
4. If you're jailbroken with a number tweaks running on your iPhone or iPad, try removing them, then re-adding them one at a time to find the source of any issues.
5. Update your iPhone to the latest firmware.
6. Restore your iPhone as new. This is a move of last resort, and here, you're not restoring from a backup. You'll need to re-install everything on your iPhone or iPad on your own.

Re: How to fix a slow or frozen iPhone or iPad?
To fix iPhone frozen, there are two general ways.
1. Hard reset iPhone.
iPhone 8, X, XS, and XR, Tap and release the Volume Up button quickly, then click and fast release the Volume Down button. Hold down the Wake button until your device restarts and displays the Apple logo. Now you've done the process, just check whether the iPhone x frozen problem is resolved.
iPhone 7 and 7 Plus, Press the Power button on the right and hold down the Volume Down key on the left at the same time. Wait until the Apple logo appears, release the buttons then. Your device will begin the startup sequence. If you still find your iPhone 7 frozen, simply try using the TunesKit iOS System Recovery.
iPhone 6s, SE and earlier models, Hold down the Home button and the power button concurrently. Keep both the 2 buttons held until you see the Apple logo shows up on the screen.
2. Using 3rd-party ios repair tools.
