How to Turn Off iQOO Z7, Z7x, Z9, Z9x & 13 Easily  

Turning off your phone every now and then is essential to maintain the performance and durability of your device. However, some smartphones, including the iQOO series like the Z7, Z7x, Z9, Z9x, and iQOO 13, have a power button setting that goes directly to Google Assistant instead of the power menu. Here are the steps to turn off your iQOO device:  

Steps to Turn Off iQOO Z7, Z7x, Z9, Z9x & 13

1. Open the Settings Menu  

Find and open the Settings app on your iQOO phone.

2. Select the Shortcuts and Accessibility Menu  

Once in the settings menu, scroll down and select the Shortcuts and Accessibility option.

3. Set Power Button Function  

  • In this menu, find the option Press and Hold Power Button.  
  • Tap this option, then change it from the default setting, which is “Launch Google Assistant,” to Enable Power & Emergency Menu.

4. Use the Power Button to Turn Off  

After changing the settings, press and hold the power button located on the left side of your device.  
The power menu will appear on the screen, including the option to turn off the device. Select the Power Off button to turn off the phone.  

With these steps, you can easily turn off your iQOO device whenever you need to.

Benefits of Turning Off Your Phone Periodically

Although smartphones are designed to be used for long periods of time without being turned off, occasionally turning off your device can provide several important benefits, such as:  

1. Improve Device Performance  

Turning off your phone helps refresh the operating system. Accumulated cache and applications running in the background will be completely closed, so that the device can run more smoothly after being turned back on.  

2. Save Battery Power  

When your phone is turned off, no apps are running or services are active like Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. This can help extend battery life in the long run.  

3. Reduce Overheat  

Phones that are used continuously without a break tend to overheat. By turning it off periodically, you give the device time to cool down.  

4. Improve Focus and Reduce Addiction  

Turning off your phone, especially when it’s not needed, can help you focus on other activities, reduce screen time, and give your eyes a break.  

5. Fixing Minor Issues  

If you’re experiencing minor bugs or issues like apps that won’t respond, weak network, or a laggy screen, turning your device off and back on can often fix them.  

How Often Should You Turn Off Your Phone in a Week?

There’s no hard and fast rule for how often you should turn off your phone, but it’s recommended to turn it off at least once or twice a week. This gives your device a chance to refresh its system. If you are a heavy user who often runs heavy applications or plays games, turning off your phone more often (for example, once every 2-3 days) can help maintain optimal performance.  

However, if you rarely turn off your phone, make sure you do at least a weekly restart to clear the cache and close applications running in the background.  

End

Turning off your iQOO Z7, Z7x, Z9, Z9x, and iQOO 13 phones is not only a simple step, but also an important way to maintain the performance of your device in the long run. By following the steps above, you can ensure that the process of turning off your phone goes smoothly. Additionally, periodically turning off your device can improve performance, save battery life, and fix minor issues that arise.  

Take the time to turn off your phone at least 1-2 times a week and feel the benefits for your device's performance!
