Never do that: 3-finger gesture causes iPhone to crash

• As has now become known, a wrong finger movement is enough and the screen of your iPhone freezes. Annoyingly, the bug recently discovered by a user does not only appear in iOS 10.3.1. The beta version 10.3.2. should also be affected.
• The bug occurs when you accidentally touch various icons with three fingers.
• If you would like to try it out, touch the night shift button, the calculator and AirDrop at the same time.
• Note: Before starting the experiment, you should be aware that you can only undo this with a hard reset.

If your iPhone is no longer sounding, the problem can often be solved without a hard reset. You can read how to do this in the next practical tip.
