How to use your iOS device without the home button

This short article explains how to use your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch without the home button. It is known that the home button has been one of the most unreliable components on iOS devices. If you are having home button issues, you may want to read our previous articles (home button not working or unresponsive; slow home button problem) to fix it.  However, if your home button is completely broken, then you may want to use an accessibility feature called Assistive Touch to enable a virtual home button instead, this feature lets you use your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch  even if the home button is completely dead. Here is how to simulate the home button:


Tap Settings > General and Accessibility and scroll until you see AssistiveTouch (Under “Physical & Motor”) and toggle this switch on.
