I think it's wrong here to try and completely compare this to Windows. As I said, most desktops used to have a reset button which would force a restart if something crashed and you could not go to Shutdown > Restart, but while I have not bought a full-size desktop for a long time certainly laptops and the mini desktops I have been buying for my business don't have it. If all goes down the drain you simply have to push and hold the power button for about 10 seconds and most laptops at that point turn off, then wait a few seconds and turn it on again. Whether it is more accurate to call the hard reset described by pushing home and power buttons on phones up to the 6S and volume up, volume down and power button on the 7 and up is a restart or a forced reset is maybe just terminology, but unless my phone is unresponsive or acting up extremely I don't use this method, instead I push and hold the power button until the Power Off prompt appears and then I shut the phone down, wait 20 or so seconds to give it time to do so completely and then I power it back on. To me this method is perfectly fine and I am OK not having a "restart" option in the menu somewhere.

It is similar to doing a restart on a PC. Which model phone are you using? The method is different beginning with the seven from all prior models. A re-set puts the phone back into factory condition and erases all your settings and data. A restart only shuts down and restarts the phone while flushing out some minor issues which might be causing problems. -----Original Message----- From: Robin Sent: Thursday, April 18, 2019 9:48 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: ReStart What has been Described (I Beleive) is a Hard ReSet NOT a ReStart Guess the Function-Action of a ReStart doesn't Exist on Apple's iOS i.e., iPhone At 09:31 AM 4/18/2019, you wrote: >Robin, >Several messages have included instruction to perform a restart on the >phone. > >-----Original Message----- From: Robin >Sent: Thursday, April 18, 2019 9:26 AM >To: [email protected] >Subject: Re: ReStart > >Then How does a User, who is TotallyBlind, perform the Function-Action >of a ReStart on an iPhone? >Note: >I'm NOT talkin about Powering Down: Turnin it Off & Then Back On as I >already know How to Do that At 09:22 AM 4/18/2019, you wrote: >>Actually the restart on the IPhone does the same, it shuts down the >>phone and then reboots.
