Although it’s uncommon, being able to recover an iPhone easily after a failure is of vital importance. In iOS 27 the system includes a recovery function, similar to the one in macOS, that we can open manually and that lets us fix errors directly from the iPhone itself<\/strong>. Let’s talk about recovery mode<\/a>.<\/p>\n

How to enter the new iOS 27 recovery system<\/h2>\n\n

Access is really simple. We simply turn off the iPhone, wait a minute, and hold down the side button during startup. After the Apple logo we’ll see \u201cContinue holding for recovery\u2026\u201d appear and then \u201cLoading recovery options\u2026\u201d. This is where we release the button and go straight into the system’s new recovery tools<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n

Once inside we find Recovery Assistant<\/a>, the option to install a software update, diagnostics, Erase All Content and Settings, and access to the traditional recovery mode. We can repair, update, or diagnose our iPhone from this very screen<\/strong>, automatically connecting to a saved Wi-Fi network.<\/p>\n\n

On newer iPhones, moreover, holding down the side button again shows the Nearby Device Recovery option, which lets us rely on another nearby Apple device to carry out the process.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n

When we need to restore our iPhone the options are easier to access, and when we have to carry out a diagnostic and recovery process, being able to do it without using a computer makes a big difference. In a few seconds your iPhone will be up and running again.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
