The process for turning off an iPhone varies slightly between different models, so it's essential to recognize your iPhone model first. Late model iPhones, such as the iPhone X, 11, 12, and 13, follow a slightly different method than older models like the iPhone 8 and earlier. Hence, identifying your phone model is the most crucial first step in learning how to effectively turn off your iPhone.

Turning Off an iPhone: A Step-by-Step Guide
Regardless of your iPhone model, the process is relatively straightforward. For the latest iPhones, simultaneously press and hold the side button and either of the volume buttons until the power-off slider appears. Drag the slider to power off your iPhone completely. In contrast, for older iPhones (iPhone 8 and earlier), you just have to press and hold the side (or top) button until you see the power-off slider and follow the same steps to turn off your iPhone.
