Q: Will there any problem occur if I force restart my iPhone 5s?
I Have no problem now. Coz this is my new phone (3 months older) . Will there be a problem occur if I force restart my iPhone? I have done it repeatedly two times By tapping sleep/wake button and home button at the same time. But tapping this for 10 sec my iPhone screen goes black and stays 3 or 4 sec and after that shows Apple symbol. Is this all right? please answer. Thanks
iPhone 5s, iOS 9.3.1

Force restarting a phone is a little like manually shutting down your desktop or portable computer : it's not ideal, but when it's frozen it is the things to do.
I wouldn't worry about it, unless you find that you often have to do it. For example, if your device is 3 months old and you have to force restart it every week or so, you may want to isolate the issue further by asking yourself if a specific app was in use each time. If you do not find any specific app to be the culprit, you can try to backup your device (see How to back up your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support), then restore it to it's factory settings using iTunes (see Use iTunes on your Mac or PC to restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to factory settings - Apple Support). This should get rid of any bug that would be part of the operating system.
