How to Turn on the Safe Mode on Your Phone

Ever experienced buggy features on your phone? Well, there’s a way to solve them and it does not involve sending your phone packing to the nearest repair shop – it’s called the safe mode and, yes, it works just like Microsoft Windows’ repair and debugging environment. So, what is safe mode on my phone? Long story short, it could be your only shot at making that phone off your works again.

Screen freezes, unresponsive features, cascading restarts – all could be symptoms of a conflictive application. Unfortunately, uninstalling the application in question may not resolve the issue. Anyway, here’s how to switch on the safe mode on your phone.

What happens when your phone reboots in safe mode?

Basically, the safe mode is an environment where you debug faulty applications, turn off the feature that is otherwise hidden in normal mode. A Windows user knows best that in order to completely uninstall an app, you would need to go into safe mode. Well, that’s, more or less, what happens when you use this smartphone feature.

The environment is not at all different from your regular UI – all the apps are there, menus, connectivity options. However, while running in safe mode, you won’t be able to use widgets and some third-party applications; you won’t need them anyway since your goal here is to determine what went wrong with your phone. Well, that’s about it in safe mode. Yes, I know that it’s not a lot, but then again, you can’t get more straightforward than this.

Oh, by the way – most of the smartphone mishaps are generated by latent malware. On that note, I would wholeheartedly recommend using Thor Mobile Security, our latest malware-busting tool. Take it for a spin – first month’s on the house. If you don’t like it, you can always cancel your subscription and rely on your tool of choice.

Turning on safe mode on your iPhone

Here’s a rundown on how to switch on the safe mode feature on your iPhone.

Step 1. Power down your phone by holding the power button.

Step 2. Wait until the phone’s completely powered off.

Step 3. Press and hold the power button again.

Step 4. When the screen lights up, hold down the Volume down button. Keep the two buttons pressed until the Apple logo appears on the screen.

Step 5. Your phone will now boot up in safe mode. Now you can safely remove any malfunctioning applications.

That was suspiciously easy, wasn’t it? Told you that the procedure’s the same when it comes to iPhones. Now that the fun part is over, let’s see how to switch on the safe mode on your Android device.
