Much has been heard about the new iPhone 8, and one of the rumors is that Apple wants to remove the home button from the screen of the upcoming device. A new post states that replacing the home button will bring something much better.
From Bloomberg report that they have seen images of the new devices, which will replace the physical one button of screen with a slim bar at the bottom and gesture controls.
So instead of a virtual one home button, as some people expect, you can drag the fine bar in the middle of the screen to open a multi-task tray on iOS 11 or to return to your home screen.
It also appears that Apple will provide a rolling platform to the iPhone 8 and the new iOS 11, although it is not yet clear how you will have access to it.
Without a home button, how do you access Siri? "Hey Siri" is not always reliable. Maybe Apple will just include a new Siri button on the new base.
Also, no one knows what will happen if you press to access the home screen, or what will happen if you play a game which requires movements close to where the base appears ..
You may need to change all your old habits with the iPhone 8, but it may be worth it to enjoy a new screen. Of course, it should be mentioned that historically the public has shown that it does not want even small changes in things that have been established. For example, notice what happens to each small or large change made to the Facebook UI. On the other hand we are talking about fan boys….
We have to wait until September 12 to see how it works and if there are any reactions.
