Restart and Force Restart iPhone
Rebooting or Restarting an iPhone is generally the most commonly used troubleshooting step to fix an iPhone that is going through problems and performance issues. Restarting fixes problems by force closing stuck Apps and processes, which might be preventing the iPhone from performing at its best. Force Restarting is only recommended when iPhone becomes unresponsive, refuses to shut down, gets stuck on Apple Logo or gets stuck in restart loop. Compared to a simple Restart, the process of Force Restarting is a bit more complicated and varies, depending on the model of iPhone.
1. Restart Any Model of iPhone Using Settings
An easy way to Shut Down and Restart any model of iPhone without using buttons is by using the Settings App. Go to Settings > General > scroll down and tap on Shut Down. On the next screen, use the Slider to Power OFF iPhone.
Wait for 30 seconds and press the Power button to Restart iPhone. Note: When iPhone restarts, you will be required to enter your Lock screen Passcode (even if you are using Touch ID).
