Force restart is one of the most basic, yet an effective solution to a variety of issues that you might experience while using your iPhone SE. One common scenario where you will need to perform a force restart is when your phone’s screen becomes unresponsive.
As you might know, soft reset is executed with the help of screen commands as you will need to drag the Power off slider to the right to turn off your phone. Since that is not possible when your phone’s display is not responding, that’s where you will need to do a force restart.
Though it provides same benefits as a soft reset does, force restart often resolves more issues effectively as it turns off unresponsive apps that are running in the background.
