What to do if my iPhone stuck in boot loop won't restore? (Windows 11)
My iPhone is stuck in a boot loop recently, repeatedly showing the Apple logo and then restarting, and I can't get into the system at all. I'm using a Windows 11 computer, and I tried restoring it wi...
Yeah, I've had that happen before—it’s usually a system issue, not hardware. iTunes can be useless in this case, but Fixppo saved me by fixing the boot loop without wiping my data—definitely worth a try!

Good luck!
If Recovery Mode doesn't work, you can try DFU to fix iPhone stuck in boot loop:
- Connect your iPhone to your PC.
- Open iTunes or Finder.
- For iPhone 8 and later: Quickly press and release Volume Up, then Volume Down. Then press and hold the Side button until the screen goes black. While holding the Side button, hold down the Volume Down button for about 5 seconds, then release the Side button while continuing to hold the Volume Down button for another 10 seconds. The screen should remain black.
- For iPhone 7/7 Plus: Press and hold both the Side (or Top) button and Volume Down for 8 seconds. After 8 seconds, release the Side button while continuing to hold the Volume Down button for about 5 seconds. The screen should remain black.
- For iPhone 6s and earlier: Press and hold both the Home and the Top (or Side) buttons for 8 seconds. After 8 seconds, release the Top (or Side) button while continuing to hold the Home button for about 5 seconds. The screen should remain black.
iTunes/Finder should recognize that a device is connected in recovery mode.
