Can't turn iphone 12 pro off

[helveta]

I'm using an iphone 12 pro software version 14.7.1 and I can't turn it off. I've always used a long press on the right side button to turn it off but when I do that now the phone stays on and Siri comes on and waits input. How do I turn the phone completely off or reboot?

Hold the side button + one of the volume buttons together

Thanks that worked. Didn't that used to take a screen shot?

Screenshot is press and release the side + volume up buttons

Yeah it's getting confusing 😅

I'm getting too old for this. I may have to get a flip phone.

Wuuut? You are saying that holding Side Button + any volume button is how we switch a 12-series iPhone off now?

Unbelievable. Apple really need to think what they are doing before they do it. It is funny that this is how we switch the costliest phones on the planet off.

That's what happens when the number of non-volume buttons is reduced from 2 to 1 😂

You can also go to settings/general and at the bottom hit shut down...
