I have an iPhone SE (1st generation) and iOS 15.7.1. For the last few months, when I place the phone on its charger and turn it off, it will turn back on, usually within seconds or minutes. I use an extension cord to also charge my Apple Watch, but this happens even when the Watch charger isn't plugged in. Anyone with similar issue and/or solution?

Hi there HumptyDumpty803,
If your iPhone is powering on unexpectedly, let's first ensure you are turning it off using one of these two methods from Turn iPhone on or off:
Turn off iPhone
• iPhone with the Home button: Press and hold the side button or Sleep/Wake button (depending on your model), then drag the slider.
All models: Go to Settings> General > Shut Down, then drag the slider.
If this continues no matter how the iPhone is turned off, can you let us know if this happens with other charging cables and other power outlets? That will allow us to isolate this issue further.
Cheers!
The only maneuver that worked was using my wife’s iPhone SE third generation charging wire. The maneuvers that failed to help included using SettingsTo shut down, trying multiple outlets, trying other charging wires. Thanks for your help.
Hey HumptyDumpty803,
Glad to read it's been resolved.
Please don't hesitate to post again if you need assistance with your Apple devices or services.
Regards.
