My IPhone XR is not working after the iOS 16.0 update

Why my iPhone XR not working after the iOS 16.0 update. What I mean by not working is I can’t swipe up to unlock it and I can’t tap anything so what do I do.

iPhone XR, iOS 16

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).
