It is always good to know all the functions of this popular button
iPhones have several hidden options and features that are patiently waiting for someone to discover them. The lock button, which is located on the right side of the device, is one of the ones that hides the most secrets: depending on the number of times it is touched, it will have one effect or another.
These are all the functions that the lock button on Apple mobiles can perform:
Lock/unlock the device: pressing the lock button once will lock the iPhone and turn off the screen. If you press it again, the device will wake up and unlock.
turn off the device: Press and hold the lock button for a few seconds until the “slide to power off” option appears on the screen. This allows the user to turn off the device completely.
Reboot device: Press and hold the lock button and the volume down button at the same time until the Apple logo appears on the screen. This will force restart the iPhone.
Activate Siri: press the lock button to activate Siri, Apple’s voice assistant.
Take screenshots: press the lock button and volume up button at the same time to take a screenshot of the current screen.
Pay: press the lock button a few times in succession to activate the iPhone wallet. All the cards that have been saved will appear and any purchase that allows contactless can be paid for.
SOS emergency: press the lock button five times quickly to access Emergency SOS, which allows the user to quickly call for help in an emergency.
