0:00 Hey guys, in today's video I want to talk about the benefits of rebooting and powering off your iPhone at least once a week. Now, personally, I power off my iPhone for 5 minutes at least once a week as study have shown that doing so can actually improve your iPhone's performance, increase the battery life, and also improve the security of your device. So, today I'm going to show you three different methods to go about to reboot your iPhone, perform a hard restart, or even a hard reboot depending on the situation. So, let's go ahead and dive right in. So, first, let's talk about your standard restart. And you may want to do this at least once a week. Now, restarting your iPhone once a week can help maintain its performance and even improve your iPhone's security, believe it or not. Now, while it is not mandatory to reboot your iPhone once a week, doing so can actually help
0:46 temporarily clear files and processes that may accumulate over time and even running in the background, which could cause battery drain and performance issues on your iPhone while at the same time potentially reducing the security vulnerabilities on your iPhone and increasing its performance. So, in order to power off your iPhone, we all know how to do that. Press on the side button and the volume together for a few seconds and then you get the slide to power off menu. you right here. Go ahead and slide the power off. Do this once a week. Let your iPhone sit for about 5 minutes and then reboot your device. So now I'm going to show you how to perform a hard restart. Now a hard restart can be used if you're having performance issues, battery drain issues, experiencing crashes, or even overheating when charging your device. So in order to perform a hard restart, what you want to do is you want to go
1:32 ahead and press the volume up, press the volume down, and then press and hold the side button. You'll see that the menu is a little different. So press press and then press and hold. You see there that you have the slide to power off, but you don't have the additional options at the bottom here for the emergency calls or for the medical ID. So just slide to power off and this is called a hard restart. So if you're having any issues with freezing, overheating, also excessive battery drain or crashes, this could help resolve these issues on your iPhone. Now the third method is called a hard reboot. Now this method you want to use if your iPhone is completely unresponsive. is frozen and it doesn't respond at all when you tap on applications. When you try to swipe, it's just unresponsive. So, what you want to do here is you want to press the volume up, press the volume down, press
2:17 and hold the side button until you see the Apple logo, which is a little bit different from the hard restart. So, press up, press down, press and hold on the side button, continue holding that side button until you see the Apple logo. So, just continue. You'll see a black screen within a few seconds, just like so here. and then just wait for the Apple logo. Once you see the Apple logo, you can release that side button and in about 30 seconds, your iPhone will reboot. And again, this is called a hard reboot. And you only want to use this third method if your iPhone is completely frozen and unresponsive. You try to swipe on the screen, you try to lock your device, and nothing's happening. I know you've been through this at least once if you're an iPhone owner. And this is how to perform a hard reboot. Now, within the next 20 seconds or so, the iPhone will reboot and
3:04 everything should be back to normal. So, let's wait here just a couple more seconds until the iPhone is completely rebooted here and we can go back into the home screen. And again, you may want to do this at least once a week. Reboot your iPhone. If you're having issues, battery drain or crashes, let your iPhone sit for about 5 minutes once a week while it's power off and then reboot it. and your performance should increase, your battery life should increase, and the security of your iPhone may increase as well. Thank you for watching. Let me know if you're using any of these methods in those comments down below. I hope you guys enjoyed this video and found this information helpful.
