How to Force Restart or Use ‘Recovery Mode’ on Your iPhone 13 – Guide
Now that you have a new iPhone 13, it’s time to learn some basics. We all know that even the latest and greatest hardware doesn’t always work perfectly, so it’s good to know not only how to turn it on and off, but also how to force restart it, how to enter and exit recovery mode and until how to change the firmware on the device if recovery mode does not work.
How to turn off (and turn on) your iPhone 13
This one is easy. To turn off iPhone 13, go to Settings > General, scroll to the bottom and select Turn Off. Alternatively, you can press and hold the volume down and to the side button together until three sliders appear on the screen, then slide “slide to off”. Likewise, when your iPhone 13 is off, press and hold the side button until the Apple logo appears.
How to force reset your iPhone 13
If your device is locked up, there’s a quick way to force the iPhone 13 to reset: Press the volume up button and release it, then press the volume down button and release it, press and hold the side button until the screen turns off. A few moments later, the Apple logo will appear on the screen and your iPhone 13 will restart.
How to enter and exit recovery mode on iPhone 13
If, when you’re turning on your iPhone 13, it crashes with the Apple logo on the screen (without a progress bar), or you see a red or blue screen, you may need to use recovery mode to restore the phone. Recovery mode allows you to connect your locked iPhone to a computer to restore your software to working condition. To put your iPhone 13 into recovery mode, connect it to a PC or Mac with its charger. If you are using a PC or Mac with macOS Mojave or older, iTunes will need to be installed; on Macs with Catalina or newer versions of macOS, just keep the Finder open. When you connect your iPhone 13 to your computer, the phone may show a popup asking if you trust the computer. Tap Trust and enter your password if prompted. When your iPhone and computer are connected, press the following keys one by one on your iPhone: volume up, turn down the volume and hold the side button until you see a computer and a cable on your phone screen. On your computer, a pop-up will ask if you want to update or restore the iPhone. Click Update and wait for the device to update and reboot. To exit recovery mode manually, press and hold the side button until the computer and cable icons disappear from the iPhone screen.
What is DFU Mode and how to enable or disable on iPhone 13
Device Firmware Update – or DFU – mode allows you to change the firmware on your iPhone when iPhone is locked and recovery mode does not work, possibly due to an incorrect software update. If your device is under warranty or if you have AppleCare, let Apple do it from here. But if that’s not an option, DFU mode is a way to make things work again. Connect your iPhone to your computer using the same steps we described for recovery mode. Then turn up the volume up button and release, turn down the volume button and release it and press and hold the side button until the screen goes black. keep holding the side button and turn down the volume button for five seconds. release the side button and hold the volume button for 10 seconds. This should put your iPhone into DFU mode. Your iPhone screen will remain dark and you will see a pop-up in the Finder or iTunes on your computer that says: iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. You must restore this iPhone before it can be used with iTunes. Restore your iPhone and it will automatically restart when the process is complete. If you change your mind, you can exit DFU mode by following the same key combination used for a hard reset.
