Wondering how to take Safe Mode off on your Android device? Whether you accidentally activated Safe Mode or deliberately entered it for troubleshooting purposes, getting out of Safe Mode is a relatively simple process. Below are some steps you can follow to disable Safe Mode on your Android smartphone or tablet.
Restart Your Device
The easiest way to exit Safe Mode is by restarting your device. Simply press the Power button and select Restart from the options that appear. This should reboot your device normally and take it out of Safe Mode.
Use Hardware Keys
If restarting your device doesn’t work, you can try using the hardware keys to exit Safe Mode. Press and hold the Volume Down and Power keys simultaneously for about 7 seconds. This should prompt your device to restart and exit Safe Mode.
Access Android Recovery Mode
If the above methods don’t work, you can access Android Recovery Mode on some devices to disable Safe Mode. To do this, start by turning off your device. Then, press and hold the Volume Up or Volume Down button (depending on the device) and the Power button simultaneously to access the Recovery Mode menu.
Exit Recovery Mode
Once you’re in Recovery Mode, use the Volume buttons to navigate through the options until you find “Reboot system now.” Select this option using the Power button to restart your device and exit Safe Mode.
Check for Faulty Apps
If your device keeps booting into Safe Mode, it might be due to a faulty app. Try uninstalling recently installed apps one by one to identify the culprit. Once you’ve uninstalled the problematic app, restart your device to see if it boots up normally.
Update Your Operating System
Outdated software can sometimes cause your device to enter Safe Mode. Check for any available software updates in your device settings and ensure your operating system is up to date. Updating your system can help resolve Safe Mode issues.
Reset Your Device
If all else fails, you can consider resetting your device to factory settings. Keep in mind that this will erase all data on your device, so make sure to back up any important information before proceeding with a factory reset. You can usually find the factory reset option in your device settings under “Backup & reset.”
Get Professional Help
If you’re still unable to disable Safe Mode on your Android device, it might be time to seek professional help. Contact your device manufacturer’s support team or visit a certified repair center for assistance with troubleshooting and fixing the issue.
