Troubleshooting

iPhone won't turn on or respond

Ensure the device has enough charge. Connect it to a power source and let it charge for at least 30 minutes. If it still doesn't respond, try a force restart: Press and quickly release the Volume Up button, then press and quickly release the Volume Down button, then press and hold the Side button until you see the Apple logo.

Apps are slow or crashing frequently

Close unnecessary background apps by swiping up from the bottom of the screen (or double-pressing the Home button on older models) and swiping apps away. Check for iOS updates and app updates in the App Store. If issues persist, try restarting your iPhone. Ensure you have sufficient storage; delete unused apps or clear app caches.

Battery drains quickly

Go to `Settings > Battery > Battery Health` to check its maximum capacity. Adjust screen brightness, enable Low Power Mode (`Settings > Battery`), and review Battery Usage by App to identify power-hungry apps. Disable Background App Refresh for apps you don't need constantly updated. Consider if the refurbished unit's battery health meets your expectations and if it's covered by warranty.

Can't connect to Wi-Fi or 5G

For Wi-Fi, try turning Wi-Fi off and on again in `Settings > Wi-Fi`. Forget the network and reconnect. For 5G, ensure you are in an area with 5G coverage and your cellular plan supports it. Reset Network Settings (`Settings > General > Transfer or Reset iPhone > Reset > Reset Network Settings`). If cellular data issues persist, contact your carrier.

Face ID isn't working

Ensure your face is clear of obstructions (masks, hats, glasses if they weren't used during setup) and that you are looking directly at the camera. Check `Settings > Face ID & Passcode` to ensure Face ID is enabled for the functions you're trying to use. If necessary, try resetting Face ID and setting it up again.
