Here are some additional things to keep in mind when turning off your iPhone 12:
- If you are using a VPN, you will need to disconnect from the VPN before you can turn off your iPhone.
- If you are turning off your iPhone to update it, you will need to connect to a Wi-Fi network before you can start the update.
