(1) Try and Force Restart your iPhone EXACTLY as shown below and see whether that resolves the issue:

  • Press and quickly release Volume UP button
  • Press and quickly release Volume DOWN button
  • Press and Hold the SIDE button until you see the slide button to turn the iPhone OFF.


(2)  If the above does not work then - You can open Settings ➔ General ➔ Shut Down
