It's very easy to turn off my iPhone 8, I just hold in the power
button for a few seconds, until my VO says power off, I swipe to power
off, double tap and my iPhone shuts down, its very easy and quick.  I
just press and hold my power button for maybe 3 or 4 seconds and wait
a couple more seconds, and my iPhone 8 comes back on.  Of course, I
don't really turn off my iPhone 8 all that much either.
