Comparison with Other iPhones
Compared to previous iPhone models, shutting off the iPhone 13 is slightly different. With the iPhone X up to the iPhone 12 models, holding the side button and one of the volume buttons would bring up the familiar “slide to power off” screen. However, with the iPhone 13, you have to hold the lock button and one of the volume buttons instead. Please note that this process may vary on different iPhone models, so if you have an older device, make sure to check how to turn it off specifically.
Highlight New Features
The iPhone 13 comes with new features that may impact the process of shutting off the device:
- Emergency SOS: If you press and hold the lock button and one of the volume buttons for too long, your device will activate Emergency SOS. This feature can call emergency services and share your location with them. To turn this off, go to Settings > Emergency SOS.
- MagSafe: If you have a MagSafe case or charger, the “slide to power off” screen will not appear when you hold the lock button and one of the volume buttons. Instead, you’ll see a “MagSafe accessories attached” message. To turn off your device, remove your MagSafe accessory and try again.
