I am resending this message from Richard because it saved my bacon while I was
trying to learn the gestures without the home button on my new iPhone 13 Pro.
Since many of us may have gotten new phones without the old faithful home
button over the holidays, thought I would re-post. Thanks

Everything is the same on the phone that has no home button. The only thing

Thanks Sieghard,
Those were written based on bad information before I got a phone without a home
button and obviously needed editing.

Hi Richard,
There is one mistake in your list of commands, you write:

Hi all
Apologies for this, as I’m sure many of you will probably think I’m seriously
