Does iphone apps still continue to update even when the phone is locked?

I'm gonna go to sleep and i update all my apps and I wanna know if they're still going to keep updating if I locked my phone.

Um yes but this question makes sense because your blonde but yes it does

They'll still update even if your phone is locked

The apps on my ipad 3 update while locked so it might still work for you.
you can easily test this by looking for an app around 5mb in size.tap download and ensure it starts.while it is downloading hit the sleep button and wait a few minutes. Then unlock the phone to see if the app is downloaded or has made progress.

Yes, they will. I always lock my phone right after I start an update or I'm downloading a brand new app. They'll still update! Mine always do!

  • Will a IPhone 4s phone still work even if i buy one without a contract? Okay, So i'm buying an IPhone 4s off of Amazon and it has a Sprint plan.

Or will i have to have a plan prior to actually using it?
  • Should I update my iTunes even though i still have iOS7? I have an iPhone 4 so I can't get iOS8. But lately iTunes has been sending me messages asking if I want to update, but they're all meant for iOS8. I don't want to download it and have it mess up my phone somehow. But at the same time there are security updates that are usually important. So what should I do?
