August 28, 20232 yr Won't open actually. Face ID and touch ID won't unlock it. I've tried to force restart and also power off with the button sequence thing to no avail. I presume if I let the battery die I can then charge and restart. Battery's at 96%, so that would take a few days. Any suggestions? Call me a boomer, but the old phones and laptops with removable batteries never had this problem. They'd always die when you pulled the battery.

September 4, 20232 yr Author UPDATE I waited 3 days and the battery ran out. Charged it, started it and we're back in business.
