Just FYI, backtap works fine on my iPhone 8 which has a home button.
-----Original Message----- From: viphone@googlegroups.com <viphone@googlegroups.com> On Behalf Of Wayne Merritt Sent: Tuesday, September 22, 2020 6:21 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: purrchasing a new IPHONE should I get one with or without a home button one thing to consider is the new Back Tap feature. If you have a newer phone without a home button, you could get the Back Tap double and triple taps to activate the home screen and bring up the app switcher. This would be a way around for anyone who has anxiety with the lack of a home button. However, having made that jump to a phone with Face ID and no home button, it's not that big of a deal. Yes, there was an adjustment and some awkwardness for about a week, and then things were fine. Your mileage may vary.
