Necessary Genius Bar appointment needed. IPhone totally inoperable. IPhone Max XS

It hasn’t been dropped or abused. I am the only user. I havent a clue how to reset, and I’m not sure that’s the problem. No icon will open any app. iPhone is totally unusable I cannot answer a call or reply msgs.. Won’t turn off. Pressing the proper buttons to do so doesn’t work.

Try a forced restart.


• Press and quickly release the volume up button

• Press and quickly release the volume down button

• Press and hold the side button.

• When the Apple logo appears, release the button.
