Hard resetting mode is the last step on the iPhone-troubleshooting ladder when nothing else is working. It’s recommended to hard reset your iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus if you just bought an Apple iPhone, and you have an issue with the phone sometimes not acting normal or being unresponsive.

We suggest you first backup all the data and info on your iPhone in case something else happens to the iPhone during the hard resetting process, for those who want to perform a hard reset on their iPhone 8 or iPhone 8 Plus.
