I’ll assume there is no protective case and no screen protective film installed here.


How to get it to shut down? It’ll shut off by itself when the battery is exhausted.


What to do? Use the Get Support link in the upper right of this webpage, and discuss your options with Apple.


You might be able to enable Reachability, which is an accessibility option on the Pro Max models. This allows you to swipe down off the bottom of the display, and drag the upper part of the display down to where you might be able to access the controls. If you can get Reachability enabled, which might be possible with Siri.
