    I turn mine off every day. I have no idea if that’s a good thing or not, but I feel like it needs a break lol

    I do hard restarts from time to time when it glitches out. But that’s about it.

    Just do it when there is a major iOS update. Otherwise, there is no need to.

    Uh, no? There are those rare occasion when Wifi stops working properly so a shutdown/reboot is necessary. That is not a reset.

    u/Silvestre074, did your friend explain what a ‘reset’ meant?

    - factory reset?

    - settings reset?

    Just some sample options.

    Please do share in detail what ‘reset’ is supposed to mean

    I factory reset once when I had a 5C and that was only because the memory function was so messed up that I could no longer receive text messages.

    Only if I’m having an issue that restarting doesn’t fix. Doesn’t happen often as the process is easy but will take like 30 minutes between erasing and redownloading everything.

    Reset means rebooting the phone? I only do that when I update OS or I encounter an issue that forced me to reboot.
