I accidentally put on guided access before turning my phone off, now I can’t turn off guided access and am unable to reset it as I would need to swipe the button to turn power off. It has also not allowed me to use Face ID to turn it off. Do I just wait for my batteries to die or is there something else I can do to turn it off?
My iPhone X is using guided access on the Lock Screen I can’t touch anything to reset it please help

@nohillside One of my friends had the same problem, he needed to connect his iPhone to his Mac and from there reset it (the iPhone). I know it is not a good solution but it works.– ThinkrMay 4 at 8:22

To exit Guided Access session press the side button or the Home button three times (this works if you have set a Guided Access password). For more info, see this Apple Support article.
