No one
can easily doubt over the engineering efforts made by Apple. Despite of that
there are some chances that your iPhone or iPad might stop working, by which I
mean it stops responding to your touch. At that moment you need to reset your
iPhone and considering the worst scenario no matter how long you hold the power
button the power off option doesn’t show up.
This
condition may arise due to any software bug or unwanted behaviour of any app.
In such
cases there is a straightforward method
to resolve it , which involves forcing your device to reboot.
This
method is termed as reset or hard restart which is done by holding down the
combination of 2 buttons simultaneously for 10 seconds or more. By doing so all
running processes will be cleared and the device will be rebooted forcibly.
Talking
about iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus, the Home button is not a physical button
anymore. So the button combination is bit different in these devices than their
predecessor.
How to
hard reboot or reset iPhone 7 & iPhone 7 Plus
As I
mentioned above Home button is not anymore a physical button . So to reset or
hard reboot the device press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Volume Down button on the side of the phone simultaneously. Just
hold the combination of buttons until the screen goes black and the Apple logo
appears. Be patient while doing the hard reboot , it may take up to 20 seconds
to get the black screen and Apple logo.
How to
hard reboot or reset other models(iPhone 6, iPhone 6s, iPhone SE and other
models)
For other
models of iPhone, to hard reboot or reset the device just hold the Home button
under the screen and the Power button aka Sleep/Wake button on the top
simultaneously unless the black screen and the Apple logo appears. This method
also works for iPads.
