<h2>Why is FaceTime not working?</h2>
<p>There are many reasons why FaceTime is not working on your device. Some of these reasons include :</p>
<ul>
<li>If you bought your iOS device in a particular country, such as Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, Dubai, and the United Arab Emirates, the FaceTime app would not work. However, with iOS 11.3 or later, FaceTime is available on iPhones in Saudi Arabia. And with iOS 12.4 or later, FaceTime is available on iPhones in Pakistan.&nbsp;</li>
<li>The issue can also occur if the date and time on your iPhone change.</li>
<li>Also, ensure that FaceTime servers are not down</li>
</ul>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3>Quick Troubleshoots</h3>
<ul>
<li>&nbsp;Ensure you have an active mobile plan with your carrier and your signal is not weak (Reception).</li>
<li>&nbsp;Check your contact blocked list. Try to place a call to different numbers.</li>
<li>&nbsp;Check the Airplane mode. Sometimes, we accidentally enable the feature.</li>
<li>&nbsp;Remove your SIM card and put it back. If you have another phone around, place your SIM card on it and try to make a phone call.</li>
<li>&nbsp;Restart your iPhone.&nbsp;</li>
</ul>
<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>Siri won't respond when your device is face down or covered by default.&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>To enable this feature:&nbsp;</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Navigate to Settings</li>
<li>Tap Accessibility&nbsp;</li>
<li>Tap Siri</li>
<li>Toggle "Always Listen for "Hey Siri" on</li>
</ul>
<p><img style="width: 965px;" src="https://cdn.technobezz.com/c/technobezz_iphone_siri_always_2dc6fb3b56/technobezz_iphone_siri_always_2dc6fb3b56.jpg" alt="" width="300px" height="200px" /></p>
<h3>Set up "Hey Siri " Let Siri recognize your voice (again)</h3>
<p>If Siri has difficulty processing your voice, consider letting Siri recognize your voice again. This will help Siri to respond to you faster and incessantly.&nbsp;</p>
<ul>
<li>Navigate to Settings</li>
<li>Tap Siri &amp; Search</li>
<li>Please Turn off Listen for "Hey Siri," then turn it back on.</li>
<li>When the Set Up "Hey Siri" screen appears, tap Continue to proceed to the next step.</li>
<li>Repeat each command that you see on your display.</li>
<li>Tap Done.</li>

<h3>Restart your iPhone</h3>
<p>We said this many times; a restart can fix so many glitches. Press and hold the sleep/wake button (Or Volume Down + Power Button), and when the slider shows up, drag it and turn your device off. Now, turn your phone on.</p>
<p><img style="width: 965px;" src="https://cdn.technobezz.com/c/technobezz_restart_iphone_b0358342d9/technobezz_restart_iphone_b0358342d9.jpeg" alt="" width="300px" height="200px" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3>Check your Microphones</h3>
<p>Your iPhone should have at least three microphones. Ensure there is no blockage within these areas. Siri won't hear you if the mics are blocked. Remove your case or screen protector if it's getting in the way.&nbsp;</p>
<p><img style="width: 965px;" src="https://cdn.technobezz.com/c/i_Phonex_mics_a26837f715/i_Phonex_mics_a26837f715.png" alt="" width="300px" height="200px" /></p>
<p>If dust or dirt is covering your iPhone microphone, it can block the sound from reaching the microphone. You can clean the area to get rid of the dust from there. Moreover, you can also use a toothpick or needle to get off the dirt but do it gently and carefully.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3>Reset All Settings</h3>
<p>For many iPhone users, resetting settings fixed the problem. This will not delete any of your data.&nbsp;</p>
<ul>
<li>Navigate to Settings</li>
<li>Tap on General</li>
<li>Tap Transfer or Reset iPhone</li>
<li>Tap on Reset</li>
<li>Tap on Reset all settings</li>

<h3>Update iOS</h3>
<p>Ensure you have the latest version of iOS, and if you don't, you should install it.</p>
<ul>
<li>Go to Settings &gt; General &gt; Software Update</li>
<li>Tap Download and Install or Install Now</li>
</ul>
<p><img style="width: 965px;" src="https://cdn.technobezz.com/c/technobezz_software_update_iphone_cf4f881871/technobezz_software_update_iphone_cf4f881871.png" alt="" width="300px" height="200px" /></p>
<h3>Restore iPhone</h3>
<p>You can restore your iPhone to factory settings using Finder on Mac. You will need a computer and a good Internet connection. Here are the steps:</p>
<ul>
<li>Connect your iPhone to your computer</li>
<li>Tap "Trust this device" on your iPhone</li>
<li>Launch the Finder</li>
<li>At the left sidebar, Under "Location", select your iPhone</li>

How To Fix IPhone Overheating And Getting Hot Issue - Technobezz

iPad Air and iPad Pro

<p>What to do when your iPhone touch screen is unresponsive to touch,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.technobezz.com/fix-lagging-iphone/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">lags</a>, or is too sensitive? This article will highlight a few solutions and workarounds for an unresponsive iPhone touch screen.</p>
<p>See also:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.technobezz.com/fix-iphone-wi-fi-issues/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">How To Fix iPhone Wi-Fi Issues</a>.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h2>The reason your iPhone Touch Screen is Not Responding to Touch</h2>
<p>One of the most annoying issues with the iPhone is when the screen becomes unresponsive or too sensitive to touch, making the phone unable to use.</p>
<p>While iPhone is a very reliable phone, glitches do happen. The most common reason for this problem is related to the hardware. However, listed below are simply troubleshooting methods that do not require you to take your phone apart.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h2>iPhone Touch Screen is Not Responding to Touch - The Technobezz Guide</h2>
<h4>Before you start:</h4>
<ul>
<li>Ensure you have a reliable backup of your data.&nbsp;</li>
<li>Note: Ensure your fingers are clean and dry when using your iPhone because the screen may not respond due to debris or water.</li>
<li>Ensure your iPhone touch screen is free of any debris or water.</li>
<li>Ensure you are not wearing any gloves.</li>
</ul>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3>1. Let's Clean the screen, shall we?</h3>
<p>Here are some tips on how to clean the iPhone screen properly:</p>
<ul>
<li>Unplug your iPhone from the power source and switch it off before cleaning the screen to avoid unforeseen damage.</li>
<li>Use a microfiber cloth, the soft one, or a lint-free cloth. Don't use a towel or something that can scratch the screen.</li>
<li>Don't spray the cleaners directly on the iPhone screen. You can apply it on the cloth instead and wipe it gently.</li>
<li>Don't press on the screen too hard.</li>
</ul>
<h3>&nbsp;</h3>
<h3>2. Let's get rid of all accessories and that screen protector too&nbsp;</h3>
<p>If you use a case or screen protector, please remove it. If the quality of these accessories is not in good condition, the touch of your fingers won't be detected by the iPhone. After removing them, try to touch your iPhone screen and see if the issue is resolved.</p>
<h3><img style="width: 979.5px; font-size: medium; font-weight: 400;" src="https://cdn.technobezz.com/c/technobezz_iphone_charge_port_80dc6a89fb/technobezz_iphone_charge_port_80dc6a89fb.jpg" alt="" width="300px" height="200px" /></h3>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3>3. Let's be honest, are you using the original Apple Charger?</h3>
<p>Consider charging your iPhone using its original USB (Lightning) and adapter. Any iPhone accessory that does not have an&nbsp;<a href="https://mfi.apple.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">MFI certificate</a>&nbsp;will be limited and can cause problems. MFI is abbreviation of Made For iPhone/iPad/iPod.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>
<p>Or, get an original&nbsp;<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Apple-MM0A3AM-A-USB-C-Lightning/dp/B09JR4B7TG/ref=sr_1_10?keywords=usb%2Bc%2Bto%2Blightning&amp;qid=1652380127&amp;sr=8-10&amp;th=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">USB-C to Lightning Cable</a>&nbsp;or&nbsp;<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Apple-MQUE2AM-A-Lightning-Cable/dp/B07CPS16L4?th=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Lightning to USB Cable</a>.</p>
<p>After charging your iPhone with the original charger, test the touch screen and see how it responds.</p>
<p><img style="width: 979.5px;" src="https://cdn.technobezz.com/c/technobezz_iphone_chargers_ac796d6e4d/technobezz_iphone_chargers_ac796d6e4d.jpg" alt="" width="300px" height="200px" /></p>
<h3>&nbsp;</h3>
<h3>4. And, here comes another Restart</h3>
<p>Thank us later; restarting your iPhone can fix the most challenging problems.</p>
<ul>
<li>Press and hold the sleep/wake button for a few seconds until the slider appears.</li>
<li>Or, press and hold the Volume Down + Power Buttons.</li>
<li>Then, slide the "Slide to power off."</li>
<li>After your iPhone is off, wait for at least 30 seconds.</li>
<li>Turn it back on.</li>
</ul>
<p><img style="width: 979.5px;" src="https://cdn.technobezz.com/c/technobezz_restart_iphone_b0358342d9/technobezz_restart_iphone_b0358342d9.jpeg" alt="" width="300px" height="200px" /></p>
<p>If the screen is completely unresponsive, you won't be able to restart it by using this method. In that case, you'll have to perform a force restart. Read below.&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3>5. Then, there is the Force Restart, but what are you forcing?&nbsp;</h3>

</ul>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3>7. The erasing of all your data, But there is hope.</h3>

How To Fix IPhone Touch Screen Not Working Issues / Responding [FIXED] - Technobezz

iPhone not working

iphone touch screen

<p>What do you do when your iPhone doesn't charge? While this is a common problem, a few quick troubleshooting methods and tips could help you fix the issue. Let's look at why your iPhone won't charge and ways to fix it.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.technobezz.com/iphone-battery-drains-fast/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Read if your iPhone battery is draining fast or if you are looking for tips to extend your battery life</a>.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h2>Why won't my iPhone charge?</h2>
<p>Before we move to the solutions, let's mention a few things that can cause this issue. Below is a quick overview of the causes:</p>
<ol>
<li><strong>Charging Port (Lightning)</strong>&nbsp;- If debris or dust is within this area, it can cause your port to be jammed, thus, making your iPhone unable to charge.&nbsp;</li>
<li><strong>Faulty Cables</strong>&nbsp;- A damaged USB cable.</li>
<li><strong>Unoriginal Charging Cable</strong>&nbsp;- Ensure that your accessories are Apple certified.</li>
<li><strong>The Charging Source</strong> - Wall adapters, AC power cables, and other outlets.&nbsp;</li>
<li><strong>Software Related</strong>&nbsp;- Maybe your phone needs an update or a force restart.</li>
</ol>
<p>Listed below are solutions that will help fix an iPhone that won't charge.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3>The Quick iPhone Troubleshoot</h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>Check the cable and the charger</strong>&nbsp;&ndash; Always start with the basics. In this case, that's making sure the cable and the charger are not damaged. If possible, try another cable or use a wireless charger. Also, connect your phone to your computer and try charging it that way. Ensure that the accessories you use are Apple certified.</li>
<li><strong>Clean the charging port&nbsp;</strong>&ndash; Over time, our iPhones may build up dirt, dust, or debris within the charging port. Your job is to&nbsp;<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ri_GHHi2LR0" target="_blank" rel="noopener">clean the charging port correctly</a>. Take your time and do it slowly, making sure you remove all the dirt. When the port is clean again, try charging your device.</li>
<li><strong>Force restart your iPhone</strong> &ndash; A force restart can be helpful in many situations. If there are software bugs, a force restart will eliminate them. Below are instructions on how to force restart your iPhone.</li>
<li><strong>Changing the outlet&nbsp;</strong>&ndash; If none of the previously listed options work, perhaps there is a problem with the outlet. Try another one and see if it is going to make a difference. (Lamp, computer, different charging dock).</li>
<li><strong>Turn off your phone</strong>&nbsp;&ndash; some iPhone users said that once they turned off their phone and connected it to a charger, it started to charge. The solution does not require a lot of your time, so&nbsp;give it a shot.</li>
<li><strong>Optimized Battery Charging</strong> - If your iPhone stops charging at 80%, it's because "Optimized Battery Charging" is enabled. <a href="https://support.apple.com/kb/ht210512" target="_blank" rel="noopener">This is a new feature in iOS 13</a>&nbsp;or later. It slows the rate of battery aging by reducing the time that your iPhone spends fully charged.</li>
<li><strong>The accessory isn't supported or certified</strong>&nbsp;- If you see this alert, it means the accessory is not designed to charge your Apple device, and it may be damaged in some cases.</li>
</ul>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h2>Ways to Fix An iPhone that Won't Charge&nbsp;</h2>
<h3>Force restart</h3>
<p>iPhone devices can behave strangely at times, in which case a force restart is the first of many things you should try. A force restart will refresh things. This not only works if your iPhone won't charge but with cases when your iPhone is unresponsive.&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Force restart an iPhone with Face ID.</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Press and quickly release the volume up button, press and quickly release the volume down button, then press and hold the side button.&nbsp;</li>
<li>When the Apple logo appears, release the button.</li>
</ul>
<p><img style="width: 1109px;" src="https://cdn.technobezz.com/c/www_technobezz_com_iphone_force_hard_reset_fac6986378/www_technobezz_com_iphone_force_hard_reset_fac6986378.gif" alt="" width="300px" height="200px" /></p>
<p><strong>Force restart iPhone 8 or iPhone SE (2nd generation and later)</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Press and quickly release the volume up and volume down buttons, then press and hold the side button.&nbsp;</li>
<li>When the Apple logo appears, release the button.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Force restart iPhone 7</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Press and hold the volume down + Sleep/Wake buttons simultaneously.&nbsp;</li>
<li>When the Apple logo appears, release both buttons.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Force restart iPhone 6s or iPhone SE.&nbsp;</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Press and hold the Sleep/Wake + Home buttons simultaneously.&nbsp;</li>
<li>When the Apple logo appears, release both buttons.</li>
</ul>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3>Inspect the charging port</h3>
<p>Inspect the charging port of your iPhone. Debris and dust can accumulate over time and clog the lightning port of your iPhone.&nbsp;</p>
<ul>
<li>You can blow into the charging port to remove dust or debris.</li>
</ul>
<p><img style="width: 1109px;" src="https://cdn.technobezz.com/c/technobezz_iphone_charge_port_80dc6a89fb/technobezz_iphone_charge_port_80dc6a89fb.jpg" alt="" width="300px" height="200px" /></p>
<p>It is&nbsp;not recommended&nbsp;to insert any objects into the iPhone charging port. Do it at your own risk. Things you can use to inspect the charging port <strong>(Gently)</strong>:</p>
<ul>
<li>You can use a flashlight to have a better look.</li>
<li>You can use a toothpick for cleaning.</li>
<li>You can use a dry cotton swab to clean the port.</li>
<li>You can use a SIM card Ejector tool for cleaning as well.</li>
</ul>
<p>If you find it difficult to remove the remaining dust, consider taking your phone to a professional.&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3>The Charging method</h3>
<p>Consider using another charging method. Plug an original Apple USB cable into the USB port on your computer- ensure the computer is not in sleep or hibernation mode. Maybe that will make a difference. If the first method you tried was the computer,&nbsp;here are a few other tips&nbsp;:</p>
<ul>
<li>Try charging your iPhone with another cable -&nbsp;<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Apple-MM0A3AM-A-USB-C-Lightning/dp/B09JR4B7TG/ref=sr_1_10?keywords=usb%2Bc%2Bto%2Blightning&amp;qid=1652380127&amp;sr=8-10&amp;th=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">USB-C to Lightning Cable</a>&nbsp;or&nbsp;<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Apple-MQUE2AM-A-Lightning-Cable/dp/B07CPS16L4?th=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Lightning to USB Cable</a></li>
<li>Try charging your iPhone via a computer, wall outlet, a lamp or a wireless charging station.&nbsp;</li>
<li>Ensure that the cable has no breakage or bent prongs.</li>
<li>Remove any phone case, MagSafe or battery-pack accessories.</li>
<li>Ensure the charging port is not damaged.&nbsp;</li>
</ul>
<p><img style="width: 1109px;" src="https://cdn.technobezz.com/c/technobezz_iphone_chargers_ac796d6e4d/technobezz_iphone_chargers_ac796d6e4d.jpg" alt="" width="300px" height="200px" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3>Try Charging your iPhone while it's off.</h3>
<p>For some reason, this solution worked for quite a few users who faced the issue. Please turn your device off and connect it to a power source. Give it a try.&nbsp;</p>
<h3>All about Charging&nbsp;</h3>
<p>Consider leaving your&nbsp;iPhone to charge for at least 30 minutes&nbsp;and then check to see if the charging sign is visible on your iPhone phone screen.</p>
<p><strong>Indicators for charging</strong></p>
<p>A lightning bolt will appear inside the battery icon in the status bar or a large battery icon on your iPhone Lock Screen if your iPhone is charging.</p>
<p><img style="width: 1109px;" src="https://cdn.technobezz.com/c/technobezz_iphone_charging_icon_c173f8a94a/technobezz_iphone_charging_icon_c173f8a94a.jpg" alt="" width="300px" height="200px" /></p>
<h3>&nbsp;If your iPhone stopped charging at 80 percent</h3>
<ul>
<li>If your iPhone stops charging at 80%, it's because "Optimized Battery Charging" is enabled. <a href="https://support.apple.com/kb/ht210512" target="_blank" rel="noopener">This is a new feature in iOS 13</a>&nbsp;or later. It slows the rate of battery aging by reducing the time that your iPhone spends fully charged.</li>
<li>To disable this feature, Navigate to Settings &gt;&gt; Battery &gt;&gt; Battery Health &gt;&gt;Optimized Battery Charging</li>
</ul>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><img style="width: 1109px;" src="https://cdn.technobezz.com/c/technobezz_iphone_optimized_battery_charging_0427d1a263/technobezz_iphone_optimized_battery_charging_0427d1a263.jpg" alt="" width="300px" height="200px" /></p>
<h3>These are the questions you should ask yourself if your iPhone won't charge:&nbsp;</h3>
<ul>
<li>Are you using an Apple-certified accessory? Using an unofficial iPhone charger can even cause damage to your phone. Ensure that the accessory is&nbsp;<a href="https://support.apple.com/kb/ht201619" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Apple-certified</a>. Or, get an original&nbsp;<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Apple-MM0A3AM-A-USB-C-Lightning/dp/B09JR4B7TG/ref=sr_1_10?keywords=usb%2Bc%2Bto%2Blightning&amp;qid=1652380127&amp;sr=8-10&amp;th=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">USB-C to Lightning Cable</a>&nbsp;or&nbsp;<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Apple-MQUE2AM-A-Lightning-Cable/dp/B07CPS16L4?th=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Lightning to USB Cable</a>.</li>
<li>Is Power coming from the source? As silly as it sounds, this can often be overlooked. Ensure the charging source is switched on; This can be a wall switch, breaker or extension cord. Or, consider using a different outlet.&nbsp;</li>
<li>Is the phone water damaged? If your iPhone was submerged in water or water got caught within it, you should first&nbsp;<strong>DRY</strong>&nbsp;the phone,<strong>&nbsp;not charge it</strong>.&nbsp;</li>
</ul>
<h3>&nbsp;</h3>
