Hi Judy, You really shouldn't be afraid of a simply reboot by which I mean turning off the phone and turning it on again after 30 or so seconds. The turning off part is easy, you just push and hold the power button for about 3 seconds, a message pops up on the screen and Voiceover wil say "Slide to Power Off, button". If you change your mind you can just swipe right once to the "Cancel button and double tap it or, if you simply wait about 20 seconds and do nothing it cancels the power off and goes back to the home screen. Note that once the "Slide to Power Off" is displayed pressing the home or power button will do nothing, you have to double tap Cancel or wait to abort the shut-down. If you want to go ahead and turn the phone off, double tap on "Slide to power off" and Voiceover will say "iPhone shutting down" although very often you just here "iPhone" and then it doesn't announce anything further because it's already shutting down. One good way to make sure it's definitely shut down is to flick the mute switch on the side, if you turn mute on there is a brief vibration, obviously nothing happens if the phone is turned off. When you are ready to turn the phone back on after about 20 or 30 seconds (it does take at least 10 seconds to properly shut down, you can do one of two things: 1. Press the power button on the side firmly and while you don't really have to hold it down for any length of time, make sure you give it a good long press, but you can hold it down for a one one thousand count which means a second or so, then let go and just wait for Voiceover to speak, in my case it usually says "Touch Id requires your passcode when iPhone restarts" and then the keypad is on the screen. ay ". 2. You can plug the Lightning cable in, if your phone is off that will start it up again. On my 6S Plus it takes about 15 seconds when Voiceover starts speaking, but it's actually faster as visually the lockscreen with keypad is coming up already after about 10 seconds. It's sort of like with Windows, when I reboot my computer and a sighted person is watching the screen they often tell me I'm at the password screen, but Jaws takes another 5 seconds or so to start speaking. I would practice this because rebooting your iPhone from time to time is actually a good thing and can prevent issues from happening in the first place.
