If the Restore screen appears on your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch
If the Restore screen appears, connect your device to your computer and restart your device. You may also need to reinstall iOS or iPadOS.
Connect to your computer
Connect your device to your computer using the cable that came with your device. Don't disconnect your device from your computer.
Restart your device
For iPhone 8 or later: press and quickly release the volume up button. Press and quickly release the volume down button. Press and hold the side button until the Apple logo appears.
For iPad models without a Home button: press and quickly release the volume button closest to the top button. Press and quickly release the volume button furthest from the top button. Press and hold the top button until the Apple logo appears. If you're not sure, find out which buttons you need to press to restart your iPad.
For iPhone 7, iPhone 7 Plus and iPod touch (7th generation): press and hold both the side (or top) button and the volume down button until the Apple logo appears.
For iPad models with a Home button, iPhone 6s or earlier, and iPod touch (6th generation) or earlier: press and hold both the side (or top) button and the Home button until the Apple logo appears.
If the Restore screen still appears after you’ve restarted the device
If the Restore screen still appears after you’ve restarted the device, you’ll need to reinstall iOS or iPadOS:
Open the Finder on your Mac, or open the Apple Devices app on your PC. If your PC doesn't have the Apple Devices app, or your Mac is using macOS Mojave or earlier, open iTunes instead. Find out which macOS your Mac is using.
Make sure your device is still connected to your computer. A message stating “There’s a problem with the [your device name] that requires it to be updated or restored” should appear.
Click Update (not Restore) to reinstall iOS or iPadOS and keep your personal data.
Don't disconnect your device from your computer until the update has finished.
