Apple has changed how you Force Restart the iPhone for the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus.

With all previous generation iOS devices you simply hold down the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons to force reboot. Some people call this a hard reset.

iClarified noticed yesterday that this method does not work on the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus. After a bit of testing, we discovered that the combination of buttons needed to force reset has been changed to the Sleep/Wake and Volume Down buttons.

We created a video to demonstrate. Click here to take a look.
