Hi My iPhone 8 plus home button is vibrating non every second stop, and I tried to force restart by holding the side button but it does not work

That’s no surprise, because that’s not how you force restart.


On an iPhone 8 or later:

  • Press and quickly release VOLUME UP
  • Press and quickly release VOLUME DOWN
  • Hold the SIDE button until an Apple logo appears (up to 30 seconds)


The operative word is “quickly"
