Hello OliverFeighan,


We're glad you thought to ask Apple Support Communities about restarting your iPhone 12. You should be able to press and hold one of the volume buttons and the side button until you see the power off slider. Those details can be found here: Restart your iPhone


If that isn't working, see if you are able to force a restart. Those steps can be found here: Force restart iPhone


We hope this helps.


Take care.
