Is your iPhone stuck on Apple logo after iOS 27 update? I’ve faced the same problem after updating my iPhone to iOS 27. After researching extensively online, here are four methods I tried.

Please try the methods below to see if they help!

Force Restart iPhone

  1. Press and quickly release the volume up button.
  2. Press and quickly release the volume down button.
  3. Press and hold the side button.
  4. When you see the Apple logo, releaseĀ the Side button andĀ waitĀ forĀ theĀ restartĀ toĀ complete (this takes around 10 seconds).

Enter Recovery Mode to Restore iPhone

If you see the Apple logo or a red or blue screen during startup, try these steps:

  1. Connect your iPhone to a Mac or PC.
  2. Select your iPhone on your computer.
  3. While your iPhone is connected, follow these steps:
    • Press and quickly release the volume up button.
    • Press and quickly release the volume down button.
    • Press and hold the side button.
    • Keep holding the Side button until you see the recovery mode screen.
  4. When you get the option to restore or update, choose Update.
  5. Your computer will download the software for your device. If it takes more than 15 minutes, your device will exit recovery mode. Repeat steps 2-3.

Enter DFU Mode to Restore iPhone

DFU mode can be tricky getting into. The timing with all the buttons has to be PERFECT.

  1. Connect your iPhone to a computer using a USB cable.
  2. While your iPhone is connected, follow these steps:
    • Press and quickly release the Volume Up button
    • Press and quickly release the Volume Down button
    • Hold down the Side button until the screen goes black, then hold down both the Side button and Volume Down button.
    • After 5 seconds, release the Side button while continuing to hold down the Volume Down button.
    • Release the volume down button when your iPhone shows up in iTunes or Finder.
      • If the Apple logo appears, the Side button was held down for too long.
  3. Nothing will be displayed on the screen when the iPhone is in DFU mode. If open, iTunes or Finder will alert you that a device was detected in recovery mode.
    • If your device shows a screen telling you to connect the device to a computer, retry these steps.
  4. Restore your iPhone.
