The home button on my iphone 5 is not working.

The home button on my iphone 5 is not working, so I'm using assistive touch. How do I close open apps without double tapping the home button?

The other possible things you can try would include...
Inserting the lightning connector and applying a little bit of pressure up under the Home button.
Some folks have cleaned the Home button with a few drops of isopropic alochol caring to not get it on your screen. This is only going to get things working again if it has been gummed up through normal use
If you are still within the one-year warranty or extended it with Apple Care don't try any of these steps just take it to Apple.

The home button in my iPhone does not work. Does anybody know how to restore it?

If the basics from the User Guide have all been tried (restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new) and you still have problems, then you've done all the troubleshooting you can do. You'll need to bring your phone into Apple or an authorized service provider in your area.

The home button on my iphone 3G is not working.

. It used to be that i only had to press a little harder than usual but now it completely stopped working. I never dropped it or got it wet. What do i do? Thos is driving me insane.

Hi, I had the same thing with my iphone 4 not so long ago. It had a problem and i sent it to the apple store (it had lesss than a year so i didn't pay). If you send it and you have apple care then they would send you a new one for free.

Is there a way to answer the 5c without swiping? It really is a pain and hard to do at times one handed. Maybe allow favorites to be answered with a click of the home button or possibly all calls with a home button push

First smart phone I have owned and the old flip phone was much easier to answer.....just press one button.

I have iPhone4. It has been working fine. I have not rebooted my phone lately, so I just deleted a few apps and thought I would do a soft reboot. I held down sleep button and home button. It shut down and apple logo came up but phone will not come back.

HT201371 Using touch ID to wake up and unlock your phone or sumulate press of home button when touch ID authentication is not required

Using touch ID to wake up and unlock your phone or simulate press of home button when touch ID authentication is not requirethe.
The feature would be great to use. Could be placed on settings to enable or disable the option.

When the phone is locked it would be nice feature to wake up the phone and unlock on touch of home button using Touch ID.
(Instead of pressing the home button).

Ipad Does NOT turn ON even when pressing power/home buttons, plugging through the charger and usb through itunes

Hi, my iPad suddenly froze while downloading a free kid's game, the loudness/soft symbol just kept on appearing no button works even the slide off/cancel. Then it suddenly turned off. I searched for troubleshooting guide, I tried pressing power/home buttons as instructed, charged/uncharged, and connected through usb using itunes but to no avail. What have gone wrong? I bought this in Vietnam but am here in the Philippines and still under warranty. Could I bring this unit to a service center of apple here in the Philippines?

Did you hold the home/power buttons for ten to fifteen seconds until the apple appears?
If still bad, try a restore from within iTunes.
If still bad, take it to an apple vendor for them to test/reinitialize for you.
