My iPhone Won't Power Up: Common Reasons and Fixes [2024 edition]
It's always frustrating when your iPhone won't turn on. You press the power button, but nothing happens-no logo, no sound, just a blank screen. Let's review some of the most common causes and solutions for why this happens.
One of the most common causes of an iPhone not turning on relates simply to the battery being completely dead. If it has been a while since your phone was turned off, it may have run out completely.
What to Do: Charge Your iPhone
Original iPhone charger or certified replacement charger; some third-party chargers don't work as well.
Look for any signs of wear on either the charging cable or adapter. It may be that an worn cable won't charge your phone properly.
Give it some time. Sometimes, it takes several minutes for the phone to show any signs of charging.
In case your phone does not turn on, then the issue might well lie in your charger itself. The cable or adapter is equally likely to be faulty, therefore blocking your phone's access to power.
What to Do: Try a Different Charger Use another charging cable or adapter, if available. Plug it in and see if your phone responds. If it does, your original charger may be faulty.
Sometimes, a software glitch can cause your iPhone to freeze or refuse to start. This can happen after an update or at random.
What to Do: Hard Reset Your iPhone The procedure for hard resetting your iPhone varies based on the model of your iPhone.
For an iPhone 8 or later, follow these steps: Press and let go of the Volume Up button. Press and instantly release the Volume Down button. Immediately press and hold the side button until you see the Apple logo.
On an iPhone 7 and 7 Plus, on the other hand, press and hold down the Volume Down button and the side button at the same time; when the Apple logo appears, let the buttons go.
iPhone 6s and earlier: Press and hold the Home button and the side (or top) button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.
If the above steps do not help turn on your iPhone, then a hardware issue probably exists, such as a shattered battery or damaged internal parts. It's like trying to start an automobile whose engine has died down-it will not go anywhere until the problem is fixed.
What to Do: Go to the Professionals If you think that it may be a hardware problem, then it's better you have your iPhone checked at any authorized service center or Apple Store for further diagnosis and repair.
When an iPhone won't turn on, that's really frustrating, but very often the solution is pretty simple: check the battery, charging equipment, or try a force restart. If all these steps don't work, looking for professional help will be the next best thing one can do.
