This method is straightforward and can be done in just a few taps, making it a quick solution if your power button isn’t working.

Method 2: Use the Samsung Assistant Menu

The second method involves enabling the Samsung Assistant Menu, which provides an on-screen shortcut for various functions, including powering off or restarting your device. Follow these steps:

  1. Open the Settings app on your Samsung phone.
  2. Scroll down and tap on “Accessibility” to enter the accessibility settings.
  3. Under Accessibility, find and select “Interaction and Dexterity.”
  4. Look for the “Assistant Menu” feature and toggle it on.
  5. Once the Assistant Menu is enabled, you’ll see a small floating shortcut ball on your screen. Tap on it to bring up various options, including the power-off menu.
  6. From here, you can easily choose to turn off or restart your phone.

This method is especially useful if you prefer having more accessibility options at your fingertips.
