A quick guide with the steps to follow to switch off your iPhone 11.

We know Apple continuously upgrades their iPhone line in features and design. The most recent release of 2020, is the new iPhone 12, iPhone 12 mini, iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max that comes with 5G connectivity, A14 Bionic chip, dual rear cameras and other improved features. However, the newest model of iPhone and the former model, iPhone 11 lineups, shared some similarities. For instance, both models sported full screen which took the expense of the Home button. On these versions, you won’t find the “home button” because it is removed. Instead, Apple has moved that functionality into the side button. If you do not have an idea how to turn off iPhone 11, you have landed on the right page. We’ll show you easy functions to do it .

We know that the iPhone has the sleep mode option that is activated every time your device is inactive, which still consumes your power. But, whether you are running out of battery and want to save some power, or you have seen some strange issues in the performance of your device, you might want to turn off iPhone 11. 

Check below the steps to turn off iPhone 11 lineup : 

1. You need to press and hold the “Side Button” along with the “Volume Up” or “Volume Down” button.
2. Wait a few seconds till you see “ Slide to Power Off” and release the physical buttons.
3. Now, slide the slider to the right and your iPhone 11 will turn off. 

It is not that complicated, eh? But, if you are a newcomer for the next-gen of iPhones, you probably didn’t expect this mix of gestures because older iPhone versions had the physical home button.  For years, the physical home button of iPhones, was a staple for Apple, especially for the iPhone. In older iPhone models, the home button was used to wake a device or for Touch ID finger recognition. But, Apple made the decision to remove the home button in order to prioritise the screen size of the new generation of iphones , such as iPhone X, iPhone 11 and iPhone 12, and to avoid button failing. The button is now replaced by an Apple software of gestures  allowing users to fly around the OS and between apps.

So in order to switch off your iPhone 11, you need to add another step into the mix, which is hold and press ,at the same time, the “Side Button” and the “Volume up or down” button.
