Ah, thanks for clarifying. That assumption would be really risky indeed if I 
already had the 17E.

>> Hi,
>> Below is an excerpt from a word document I have on my web site for VoiceOver 
>> gestures.
>> The gestures are the same as all other phones, but unlocking, and some other 
>> things are slightly different.
>> I hope the below helps.
>> 
>> 
>> For devices without a home button:
>> Side button replacing Home button commands
>> •    Unlock Phone: Facial Recognition, or tap the  Side button and enter 
>> your passcode
>> •    Accessibility Shortcut: Triple click of the Side button
>> •    Screenshot: Simultaneously press and quickly release the Side button 
>> and Volume Up button
>> •    Activate Siri: Press and hold the Side button
>> •    Turn off the iPhone: Click and hold the Side button and Volume up or 
>> down button.  The Slide to Power Off screen will appear. Release the 
>> buttons! (It’s crucial to release the buttons because Emergency SOS will 
>> automatically activate if you continue to hold them down.  Then double tap 
>> the power off button on the screen
>> •    Activate Apple Pay: Double click the Side button
>> New Gestures replacing function of the Home button Starting at the
>> bottom of the screen and slide one finger up. You will feel three haptic 
>> vibrations referred to as "clicks" (similar to the old "click" when pressing 
>> the Home button). Each of these three clicks will activate a function. Note: 
>> The first click alerts you that you are in the feature.
>> •    Return to the Home screen: From the bottom of the screen slide one 
>> finger up until the second click. Lift your finger from the screen.
>> •    Activate the App Switcher: From the bottom of the screen, slide one 
>> finger up until you feel the third click. Lift your finger from the screen.
>> •    Activate Teachability mode (if enabled in Settings): From the bottom of 
>> the screen, slide one finger up until you feel the first click. Quickly 
>> flick down.
>> Starting at the top of the screen, slide one finger down to feel the clicks.
>> •    Access the Control Center: From the top of the screen, slide one finger 
>> down until you feel the second click. Lift your finger from the screen.
>> •    Access the Notification Center: From the top of the screen, slide one 
>> finger down until you feel the second click. Lift your finger from the 
>> screen.
