Apps Not Opening & Unable to Restart Phone

Hey all,


Applications on my phone will not open. Holding down the power button will not work. Holding down the power button and the home button to restart will not work. Any suggestions on how to fix this problem?


Thank you!

The gestures you described are not appropriate to force restart your 8+.

See these instructions:--> Force restart iPhone – Apple Support
