Iphone 13 mini freezing.

My iphone completely freezes sometimes. Especially when I take photos or use portrait mode. Nothing works to unfreeze it.

Hi KCA22,


Thanks for posting in Apple Support Communities! If your iPhone is frozen, you can force it to restart to get it working again. Here's how:


  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.
  4. When the Apple logo appears, release the side button."

An illustration of two iPhone models, one with a Home button and one without, with the screens facing up. The volume buttons for each model are on the left side of iPhone, and the side button is on the right.


Find the steps above in the article Force restart iPhone. It also provides additional direction if these steps don't work. Also, check out some additional recommendations to help performance here: If your iPhone or iPad is running slow.


Cheers!
