All. I had an interesting experience yesterday which I wanted to share. I got a notification on my iPhone at around 4:20 yesterday afternoon. When I got home, my phone was completely dead, no VoiceOver, no vibration when I switched the mute button from muted to unmuted and back, nothing. I plugged the phone into my Mac and after waiting a few seconds, noticed that it wasn't showing up on the Mac in iTunes like it usually does when plugged in. I tried plugging the phone into the charger and no dice. After dinner I went to the Apple Store and a technician looked at it. Within 30 seconds he got it working again by doing a hard reset, which means you hold the power and home buttons in for 8-10 seconds and then release. He said that iPhones will rarely shut completely down like that. He also said that it can sometimes happen in an OtterBox case, like I have on my phone, where the phone gets too heated and completely shuts down. He assured me that even if the phone is turned off it will restart when I do the reset. In the 5 years that I've had iPhones, this is the first time this has happened to me. For the record, I have an iPhone 6S and when this happened I had not yet updated to 9.1.
