Tip 1: Calibration and restore Your iPhone may just need Calibrating and Restoring! This is the most common problem with the home button lagging and can be caused by a software flaw or just because your phone needs a reset. Thankfully, it is usually a quick fix! Firstly, make sure your device has the latest iOS update!

Press and hold the Top button until your device begins to restart. Continue holding the Top button until your device goes into recovery mode. iPhone 8 or later: Press and quickly release the Volume Up button. Press and quickly release the Volume Down button.

Press and hold the Side button. Keep holding the Side button until you see the recovery mode screen. iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus: Press and hold both the Volume down button and the Sleep/Wake button. Keep holding the Volume down button until you see the recovery mode screen.

If your iPhone is stuck on the Apple logo, sometimes a hard reset can fix the problem. Here is how to hard reset your iPhone. Press and release the volume up button, press and release the volume down button. Now, press and hold the side button.

Other common causes of the blinking Apple logo include: Update Errors – A flashing Apple logo can display if an update file gets interrupted (corrupted).

Press and quickly release the volume up button, press and quickly release the volume down button, then press and hold the side button. When the Apple logo appears, release the button.

If turning the iPhone off and back on again doesn’t fix the problem, or the iPhone is unresponsive when you try to turn it off, you have to reset it by doing the following: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

Press and hold the Power button (right edge) until ‘slide to power off’ appears then release. If the device is unresponsive, attempt the alternate method. Slide the Power switch right. Allow several seconds for the device to power off.

To force restart or hard reset your device, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons simultaneously for at least ten seconds. After about ten seconds, you should see the Apple logo and can release the buttons. That’s it. Now you know how to hard reset your iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus.
