Hi. I'm Max Dalton, and in this video I'm going to talk through how to shut down your Apple iPhone or iPad without using the power button.
Powering your Apple iPhone or iPad down while you're having problems with the Power button can be an absolute nightmare. With the rollout of iOS 11, Apple has added an option for users to shut down their device without actually using any of the physical buttons. If you're having problems getting your device's Power button to work, you can navigate to a digital Shut Down button through the Settings app.
Step 1. Tap to launch the "Settings" app on your Apple iPhone or iPad home screen.
Step 2. Select "Settings."
Step 3. Scroll down to the very bottom of the Settings screen, and then tap the blue "Shut Down" button. Your iPhone or iPad's home screen turns gray, and a Slide to Power Off slider appears at the top of the screen.
Step 4. Slide the red "Power" icon from the far left to the far right side of the slider. Your Apple device will power down.
