Phone won't turn on and is remaining on apple icon screen

I have been trying to turn my phone on for hours and it will not allow me to do so. I have tried the hard restart many times and plugging it into my computer and it is still remains on the back loop. How do I fix this?



iPhone 11, iOS 13

Force restart iPhone - Apple Support ⬅︎ TRY THIS AGAIN, and if it does not work try Recovery Mode because if you can't get it to start properly then you have to have it serviced by Apple which you might not want to do and might not be an option right now...


Force restart an iPhone with Face ID, iPhone SE (2nd generation), iPhone 8, or iPhone 8 Plus

  1. Press and quickly release the volume up button.
  2. Press and quickly release the volume down button.
  3. Press and hold the side button.
  4. When the Apple logo appears, release the button.

Note: If iPhone still doesn’t turn on, or if it gets stuck during start up, see the Apple Support article If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch won’t turn on or is frozen.


Recovery Mode... the full info is in the above link...⬆︎ the short info is below...⬇︎


Connect your device to a computer. On a Mac with macOS Catalina 10.15, open Finder. On a Mac with macOS Mojave 10.14 or earlier, or on a PC, open iTunes.


Press and hold both the Home and the Top (or Side) buttons at the same time. Keep holding them until you see the recovery mode screen.
