**A force restart** works in the same way as a regular **reboot (soft reset).** Fixing an iPhone that has been frozen or is not responding to touches is highly recommended. This might be the remedy you're looking for, especially if the issue was caused by small software issues that rendered an app or the iPhone itself unusable. If this is the case, a force restart of [your iPhone](https://answers.mindstick.com/qa/50411/what-to-do-if-your-iphone-x-can-t-be-detected-by-computer) 8 may be able to **resolve the issue.** On both of Apple's current flagship iPhones, the procedure for forcing a restart has been updated. Here's how you do it: \

1. **Quickly press** and **release the Volume Up button.**
2. Then, **swiftly push** and **release the Volume Down button.**
3. Finally, **hold down the Side (Power)** button until you see the Apple logo.
