Update iOS: Ensure that your iPhone XR is running the latest version of iOS. Sometimes, software updates contain bug fixes that can address issues like unexpected shutdowns.

Check for App Updates: Make sure all your apps are up to date. Sometimes, outdated apps can cause conflicts with the operating system, leading to unexpected behavior.

Check Battery Health: Check the battery health of your iPhone XR. Go to Settings > Battery > Battery Health. If the maximum capacity is significantly degraded (usually below 80%), it might indicate that the battery needs to be replaced.
