Hello ~ Take a look here at an excellent prior post by *Axel Foley* who puts it into focus better than I ever could and follow these instructions…they work as I have had this happen as well…


*”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 an Apple logo appears and then release the Side button (Can take up to 20 seconds. (DO NOT release Side Button when invited to Slide Power OFF). “*
