Multiple iPhone units stored for forensic analysis have rebooted themselves, causing concern among law enforcement officials that Apple has a new security feature.
On iOS this is 5 quick presses of the power button, and it vibrates in a unique way to let you know it worked, so can be done in a pocket or just without looking, which is nice. But yeah an auto reboot would be swell.
Thanks, but that’s not rebooting and does not fill the need properly.
I don’t want to shut my phone down regularly, I want to reboot it regularly.
Shutting it down just means my phone is shut down and stays that way until I realize and boot it back up (which could well be hours depending what I’m doing), which is a much worse situation for an absolute homebody such as myself.
As the linked screenshot shows, you have the option to choose between shutting down and rebooting. There is no need to explain the difference to me, I demonstrated that the thing you want to do is possible.
