Last updated on December 31, 2016 By Hamza Sheikh 1 Comment

Every so often iPhone/iPad users enter recovery boot and don’t have a clue what to do.  There seems to be no way to exit recovery boot and you’re stuck with no option but to restore your device with iTunes.  To most users getting stuck in recovery mode is no less than a nightmare.  There are, however, many users who look to enter recovery mode deliberately to restore their iPhone/iPad.

A new user or any user as a matter of fact can enter recovery boot once in a while.  You may enter recovery boot if you try to delete Jailbreak from your iOS device without knowing how to do it properly.  If you go to Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings on your jailbreak device, it’s a sure shot recipe to enter recovery boot.

Another reason that may lead you to recovery boot is following some random steps of instructions from a tutorial without any knowledge of what you’re doing.  This way your iPhone will enter recovery boot to fix your device software that you’ve just made unstable.

Recovery boot is a feature of iOS that helps you restore your iPhone or iPad when something goes wrong.  It is not your enemy but saves your device from breaking down.  It enters it in recovery mode and lets you restore your device using iTunes.

However, if you want to exit recovery boot without restoring your iPhone/iPad you can use one of multiple free softwares such as Tiny Umbrella, RedSn0w, ReiBoot and RecBoot.  Apart from exiting recovery mode, these softwares also help users to enter recovery boot.  When you jailbreak an iOS device, upgrade or downgrade a device or do any technical stuff with your iOS device, anything can go wrong.  This means that your device is broken.  Now you will need to restore your device with iTunes.

Restoring with iTunes when you enter recovery mode means you’ll lose all your data and your iPhone/iPad will be reverted to factory settings. But there are times when you need to enter recovery mode to fix your device.  If your iPhone is not responding and is stuck on a black/blank screen, you’d need to enter recovery mode to save your device and data.
