You can try a forced restart but most likely it's a hardware issue that will need to be repaired at a Genius Bar or authorized service center.


• Press and quickly release the volume up button

• Press and quickly release the volume down button

• Press and hold the side button.

• When the Apple logo appears, release the button.
