Would you like to back up your phone into iCloud before reset?

Great!
Do you prefer performing a factory reset through Setting on your phone or iTunes on your computer?

Please follow these steps:

  1. From the Home Screen of your iPhone XR, tap Settings.

  1. Scroll down and then tap General.
  2. Scroll down again, and tap Reset.
  3. Under Reset, tap Erase All Content and Settings. Remember: Doing the process will delete all the save files in your device. Make sure that you have already backed up all data, files, photos and videos that you want to keep. If you have set up an unlock code or PIN on your handset, enter the correct code to continue.
  4. Then, tap Erase iPhone. Enter your Apple ID if needed, and then tap Erase.
  5. Tap Erase iPhone once again. It may take a minute or two for the reset process to be completed. You
    will see the Welcome Screen, and will be asked to swipe to continue.
