A very quick check through a search engine shows this

press and hold both the "Sleep/Wake" button and the "Home" button at the same time. Hold them for at least 10 seconds until you see the Apple logo appear on the screen. Release the buttons, and within a half-minute or so the iPad resets itself and turns on.

This works on older devices but the latest iPhone 7 models no longer have a physical home button, so with these the volume down button is used instead.

Once a valid complaint about iThings but these days removing the battery involves dismantling loads of phones and tablets.
