iPhone 11 frozen screen with “Your emergency contacts have been notified” message.

The phone is frozen and the troubleshooting steps of the using he up and down volume buttons and then the side button do not work. I just get Siri when I do that. I asked her to restart it and she couldn't do it either.

iPhone 11, iOS 14

  • Press and quickly release VOLUME UP
  • Press and quickly release VOLUME DOWN
  • Hold the SIDE button until an Apple logo appears (15-30 seconds)


The operative word here is QUICKLY; and try it a couple of times, the timing is a little tricky.
