How do I turn off (reboot) my iPhone 14?

How do I turn off (reboot) my iPhone 14? Neither the ride-side button nor force restart procedures work. Thanks.

Hold the Volume Up and Side buttons at the same time.


To force restart:


  • Press and quickly release VOLUME UP


     then

  • Press and quickly release VOLUME DOWN


     then

  • Hold the SIDE button until an Apple logo appears (15-30 seconds), ignoring "slide to power off" if it appears


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

Yes! I googled this issue and found your solution of simultaneously holding the volume up and right-side button down, and that took me to the phone turn-off screen. I had also wondered about the solution provided by another poster, who said to go to Settings, General, Shut Down, if that would accomplish the same thing, before I discovered your volume up/right-side buttons solution. Thanks.
