Summary If your iPhone keeps restarting, it can be both annoying and disruptive. Our expert guide will delve into the potential causes of this issue and provide you with reliable solutions to get your device running smoothly again.
I. What are the reasons for the repeated restart of the iPhone?
iPhone restart issues can be divided into two main categories: intermittent restarts, where the iPhone functions normally but reboots without warning from time to time, and frequent restarts, which can make the phone almost impossible to use. These disruptions can arise from a multitude of factors. Let’s explore what could be causing your iPhone to restart.
Scenario 1: iOS system bug
When the new iOS system is updated online, it is often due to system bugs that the official failed to fix in time, resulting in frequent restarts.
Scenario 2: Malware attack
Jailbreaking your iPhone exposes it to malware risks, potentially leading to device instability and frequent reboots due to the ability to install unapproved applications.
Scenario 3: Hardware failure or damage
The device also restarts frequently due to broken hardware, which must be fixed by repairing or replacing the hardware.
Scenario 4: APP and system software conflict
When some applications (APP) are not compatible with the iOS system, it may cause the device to restart frequently.
Scenario 5: The battery is in bad contact or the battery is aging
Although the iPhone is known for its stable system, there will be frequent restarts of the device due to poor battery contact, long service life of the mobile phone, or irregular power consumption habits.

Method 4: Reset All iPhone Settings
To address the recurring startup issue on your iPhone, which may stem from incorrect configuration or other unidentified causes, reset it to factory defaults by navigating to Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings from the home screen app list.
Method 5: Use iTunes to restore the faulty machine
Before using iTunes to help solve the problem of repeated startup, the following preparations need to be made:
- Make sure iTunes has been updated to the latest version;
- Use iTunes to back up important data on the device;
- Turn off the (Find My iPhone) feature in (Settings) – (iCloud) on the device to disable Activation Lock.
After that you can do the following:
1. First use the data cable to connect the iOS device to the computer and open iTunes.
2. When the iPhone is displayed in iTunes (click on the small phone icon).
3. In the “Summary” panel, click the (Restore iPhone) button.
4. Click (Restore) again after the operation to confirm that the device will be restored to the factory settings and all data and content will be deleted. iTunes will download the iOS firmware file and restore your iOS device.
5. After resetting the iOS device to factory settings and it restarts, you will see the “Swipe to set up” welcome screen. Proceed with the “iOS Setup Assistant” to configure the device as new or restore from a previous backup. Cellular service, if available, will activate post-restoration.
If the common solutions fail to fix the iPhone restart issue, it may be due to hardware failure. Contact Apple for timely repair assistance.
