iPhone won't restart

My iPhone Ten just shut off and is flashing the apple symbol at me. It won't restart and when I plug it into the computer (using an apple cord) it won't let me restore either...


Any advice?

First, try a forced restart.


  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.


If that fails try forcing the phone into recovery mode.
