how to power off iphone

To power off an iPhone, the method depends on the model:

• For iPhones with Face ID (no Home button, e.g., iPhone X and newer):
  1. Press and hold the Side button and either Volume Up or Volume Down button simultaneously.
  2. When the "slide to power off" slider appears, drag it to turn off the device.
• For iPhones with a Home button (older models):
  1. Press and hold the Side (or Top) button until the "slide to power off" slider appears.
  2. Drag the slider to turn off the iPhone.
• Alternatively, for all iPhone models running iOS 11 or later, you can power off from the software:
  1. Open the Settings app.
  2. Go to General > Shut Down.
  3. Drag the slider to power off.
• If physical buttons are not working or you want a button-free method, you can enable AssistiveTouch under Settings > Accessibility > Touch > AssistiveTouch. The on-screen AssistiveTouch menu then allows you to select Device > More > Shut Down.

This covers the normal ways to power off an iPhone fully and safely without forced restarts or shutdowns.
