If you previously had an older model of the iPhone, you might recall the previous method, which required you to press and hold two buttons simultaneously to restart the iPhone.
You now have to fast press two keys on newer iPhone models, such the iPhone 12 Pro Max, before pressing and holding a third button to force a restart.
It can take you a few tries to get used to the new procedure, but once you do, it should be retained to memory and you’ll be ready to go anytime you encounter these problems again.
