Hi mandyneef,

Try force restart your iPhone X following these steps:

  1. Press and quickly release the Volume Up button.
  2. Press and quickly release the Volume Down button.
  3. Press and hold the Side button (for about 10s) until the device restarts.


If Siri pops up between step 2 and 3, then you haven't pressed the volume buttons correctly and should try again.


If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch won't turn on or is frozen - Apple Support


Hope that helps.


Patricia
