Method 1: Restart your iPhone

The first solution should be to restart your iPhone, considering both soft and force restart (also known as hard reset) methods. A soft restart reboots the operating system, refreshing the device's state without data loss. A quick check of the device model, software version, and account state usually explains why the same menu looks different on another device.

On the other hand, a force restart is more full, powering off the iPhone completely and terminating all active processes, often used for more serious issues. If a step looks different on your device, the app version is usually the first thing to compare before assuming the feature is missing.

1. Soft Restart

Make sure your iPhone is plugged into a power source.

Restart iPhone X and later models:

1. Press and hold either volume button and the side button simultaneously until the power-off slider is displayed so the next part of the process is easier to complete without backtracking. That matters when you only want one part of the video to play back slower while the rest keeps its normal speed.
2. Slide to power off, then wait about 30 seconds for your device to completely shut down.
3. To power on your device, press and hold the side button (located on the right side of your iPhone) until the Apple logo appears.

Restart iPhone 6, 7, 8, or SE (2nd or 3rd generation):

1. Press and hold the side button until the power-off slider is shown so the next part of the process is easier to complete without backtracking. It gives you finer control when only one moment should stay slow and the rest of the recording should play normally.
2. Slide to power off, then allow 30 seconds for your device to turn off.
3. To switch your device back on, press and hold the side button again until the Apple logo is visible.

Restart iPhone SE (1st generation), 5, or earlier:

1. Press and hold the top button until the power-off slider emerges so the next part of the process is easier to complete without backtracking. This is useful when the speed change should affect only one section instead of forcing the whole clip to slow down.
2. Drag the slider to shut down your device, then wait for 30 seconds.
3. To restart your device, press and hold the top button until the Apple logo shows up.

2. Force Restart

If the soft restart fails, you should try a force restart.

Force Restart iPhone with Face ID:

1. Quickly press and release the volume up button.
2. Quickly press and release the volume down button.
3. Press and hold the side button.
4. Once the Apple logo is visible, release the side button.

Force Restart iPhone 8 or iPhone SE (2nd generation and later):

1. Quickly press and release the volume up button.
2. Quickly press and release the volume down button.
3. Press and hold the side button.
4. Once the Apple logo is visible, release the side button.

Force Restart iPhone 7:

1. Simultaneously press and hold the volume down button and the Sleep/Wake (side) button.
2. Release both buttons when the Apple logo appears.

Force Restart iPhone 6s or iPhone SE (1st generation):

1. Simultaneously press and hold the Sleep/Wake (top) button and the Home button.
2. Release both buttons when the Apple logo is displayed.
