Troubleshooting

Device is unresponsive or won't turn on.

First, ensure the device is charged by connecting it to a power source for at least 30 minutes. If it's still unresponsive, perform a force restart: quickly press and release the Volume Up button, then quickly press and release the Volume Down button, then press and hold the Side button until you see the Apple logo.

Apps are crashing or running slowly.

Try closing the problematic app by swiping up from the bottom of the screen and swiping the app card off the top. Reopen the app. If the issue persists, check the App Store for app updates and ensure your iOS is updated to the latest version. You can also try freeing up storage space.

Battery drains faster than expected.

Go to `Settings` > `Battery` to see which apps are consuming the most power. You can enable Low Power Mode (`Settings` > `Battery`), reduce screen brightness, turn off Background App Refresh for less critical apps, and limit location services to optimize battery life. Avoid extreme temperatures.

Unable to connect to Wi-Fi or cellular data.

For Wi-Fi: Try toggling Wi-Fi off and on in Control Center or Settings. Forget the network (`Settings` > `Wi-Fi` > `i` icon > `Forget This Network`) and reconnect. For cellular data: Ensure cellular data is enabled (`Settings` > `Cellular`) and try toggling Airplane Mode on and off. If issues persist, restart your iPhone.

Face ID is not working.

Ensure your face is clear of obstructions (masks, hats, glasses in some cases). Check that your face is within the frame and try resetting Face ID in `Settings` > `Face ID & Passcode` and setting it up again. Ensure your camera is clean and unobstructed.
