How to Force Restart or Hard Reset Your New iPhone 14

While the iPhone 14 is quite reliable, from time to time, you may need to force reset or hard reset your new handset.

How to Force Restart the iPhone 14 (All Models)

  1. Press and quickly release the Volume Up button, found on the left side of your device.
  2. Then press and quickly release the Volume Down button, also found on the left side of the device.
  3. Finally, press and hold the Side button, found on the right side of the device until you see the Apple logo.

During this process, you will see a slider appear on the screen to prompt you to power off the iPhone. Ignore it and continue holding down the Side button until the screen goes black and the Apple logo pops up. After the restart is complete, the screen will activate once again.
