It seems that Apple enjoys destroying everything that we are attached to, and Apple is the only company that has the courage to do this, and we never say that this is a mistake. In order for technology to develop, companies must take bold steps to move forward, but is Apple persisting in these bold steps?


Apple is the first to eliminate the floppy disk drive, which was responsible for running floppy disks, and it is also the first to eliminate the use of CD / DVD.

Apple is also the first It gave up the Flash technology Although it was a difficult decision because the Internet at the time was largely dependent on this technology, it was proven that Apple was She is right in this decision The Adobe company that made this technology finally gave up.

In the past few years, the headphone jack on the iPhone has also been abandoned.

“I fear what I fear will come one day and cancel the screen as well "

How to abandon this button, which has always been a very easy escape port, how is this button abandoned, which no matter how far you go and get lost, you return again to your place through it, and not only that, the home key has several functions, all of which are vital and indispensable , it was It can be used to switch between applications, as well as calling Siri, activating the lens, and taking a screenshot, as well as with the payment service from Apple, as well as a forced exit from applications or a forced restart, and it was also used to enter the reset mode.

So how can anyone on earth use a phone without a home button?

And the only answer to this question: Through a group of tricks and magic tricks ... But how?

Do not be surprised or in a hurry ... In the next few lines we will share with you these tricks that Apple provided in its iPhone X.

A complete list of all the tricks you do with the Home button on most iPhones and how you can use them on iPhone X.

Press the screen or the power button with a light click, or raise the phone to wake up as in an iPhone 6s and above.


Unlock or Unlock phone

◼️ without the home button

You can unlock your phone through the face recognition feature, or what is known as Face ID, just look at the phone and it will unlock with you, knowing that this feature is also optional, so you can log in as usual by typing the password.

Swipe up from the bottom of the screen as if you were going to the main menu but pause in the middle of the way and the previous apps will appear.


Reachability

🔳 by using the home button

This feature began with the iPhone 6 because of the large size of the phone, especially the iPhone 6 Plus, which has become larger and larger and with the large screen size, you cannot reach the entire screen with one hand, and it is known that it is Apple's policy to use the phone with one hand, so it had to Maintains this policy and provides a feature to the user that enables him to do so, and I found the feature to facilitate access, or what is known as Reachability.

And to activate this feature, all you have to do is touch the fingerprint sensor twice, and the screen will go down to the middle of the phone, and as soon as you touch anything on the screen, the screen will return to its previous state.

◼️ without the home button

Unfortunately, this feature has also been abandoned, perhaps because many people do not use it or it is difficult to find an alternative.

◼️ without the home button

Just like on iPhone 7, press the Volume Down button and the Power button on the left side.

To see an article on How to Force an iPhone 7 to Restart, you can go to this Link


So it appears that Apple has successfully deleted the Home button and replaced its functions with quick and practical shortcuts

What do you think of what Apple did by dispensing with old technologies? And do you replace us with really appropriate things? Or is it assumed that if one of us gets used to something, he should remain on it for the rest of his life and not accept the change, although it is possible that it is in his interest and has complete comfort for him?

Not every change is a good thing if it does not take into account the desires and needs of the user, Apple treats its customers as minors and gives itself the right to cancel other features and imposes, and most of these changes are on the side that opens a new door for Apple's financial gain, Apple's innovations were strategic and it proved that it was not motivated Material only, but motivated by development and racing to reach the leadership, but today, Apple is employing its old strategy to earn money in any way, even if you follow the Android system, and this is what is happening now completely, the absence of the back button in Apple devices was considered a very flawed deficiency, so it introduced the return feature, but In an indirect way, and it was and still is impractical compared to the real button that is found in all Android devices, and the worst thing is that it canceled the home button and the only savior. With Apple, the change did not happen with a single thing so that it can be dealt with, but you have to memorize a list of instructions so that the phone works smoothly, and of course talking about how to use is different from the truth, so when you hold the phone you will see what it meansYou are looking for buttons in your memory, not on the phone

All that was mentioned on one side and the place of the front camera and the speaker on another side, Apple could have made the place to show the battery and the watch in black color to integrate with the headphones and the appearance of the device is elegant, but this bump looks ridiculous and hinders the use in horizontal browsing such as watching videos, playing games and watching pictures !!!

By God, brothers, I do not see the recent changes in Apple except by belittling the minds of customers and laughing at them with devices with high prices that do not match the features in them!

Hasn't it occurred to anyone that switching to a wireless Face ID headset forces a person to be exposed to a huge additional amount of unnecessary radiation! Who said that all people want to use these stupid headsets???? Or want to expose their faces and heads to 12 or 14 thousand points of radiation or more! And I hope that no one will convince me that this radiation is healthy and safe and other empty talk issued mostly by research centers originally funded by these multinational companies!

It has been a few days since I updated the last iPhone and I am trying very hard to cope with these hateful changes that Apple forced us to!

Why do we see in all mobile companies a constant trend towards satisfying the customer and developing systems and hardware according to the standards of customer desires, while in Apple, Tim Cook, the customers are the last thing they care about, rather the customer must adapt to Apple’s trends against his will, not the other way around!

    My brother, the Apple headset is the only headphone that has surpassed all the headphones in the global market in the shortest time, and all people used to speak the same thing as yours, it is unnecessary and failed, and after trying the headphones, they praise the headphones, so do not blame the thing that after trying it and the system there are no problems I have in the iPhone se can your iPhone The treatment is old, so the best thing is that you return to iOS 10.3

    I have an iPhone 5se and the truth is that after the basic update it became unbearable due to the many problems in it, not to mention the major changes that occurred to the system. I mean problems such as the disappearance of some applications, and this used to happen before the update. Now I don’t have a problem from this side. The system does not respond completely and many times, and this happens before and after the update. As for the headphones, the user’s problem is not in the quality of the headphones, but in restricting his choices. The user cannot be forced to use a feature that he does not like. In addition, this change has cost the user hundreds of dollars, and the headphones he has have become worthless junk, even though they are expensive.

I use the Galaxy XNUMXS device, which is the last one in which the screen button is forgotten, but I make up for it with a fake button on the screen and the fingerprint is placed next to the back camera, but the fingerprint is in its place impractical. ”It is difficult to recognize the fingerprint

Apple will not conquer anyone, its philosophy will lead it to the abyss, it is no longer the leader in innovation, it has become a mere imitator and developer of others’ ideas, so it will not take the initiative and will run behind the bandwagon, as is happening now with its new phones, which have not come with anything new.

By God, if Apple had released a new device and called it a fabulous name like the iPhone Star or any other shiny name, and it had no advantage except to speak with it like any old Nokia phone, you would have found the bumbling and beating of Apple who are the first cheerleaders !!
I am surprised about you, do you think all people are ignorant and do not understand ???????
Trivial features and nasty changes are not like their predecessors in Apple Steve Jobs, and they want us to believe articles here and there glorifying Apple to convince some customers to buy it !!
Yesterday Friday I updated my device to iOS 11.0.1 and saw some really disgusting changes! Like the hateful Arabic font, and not disabling the wireless from the control panel as usual (I don't care about stupid excuses from some fanatics)!
Really amazing!
I hope you will publish my comment as it is if you like the opinion and the other opinion

    Ok, did you notice that the text of the drummers have become alienated from Apple after the last update and after the last 3 iPhones?
    Or should I just ruin God's creation and walk?
    I wish you didn’t just
    And for information on top of this, there are disaffected from Apple "fair" who believe that the feature of shutting down the wireless from the control panel is excellent 🙂
    Does it not serve you, but it serves others
    Note: You are correct that there are unpleasant changes
    Also, these articles are not glorifying Apple, but rather discuss a problem or dilemma facing users, and discuss a question that has been plaguing Apple users.

I always remember seeing the iPhone for the first time, and my aversion to it, for a clear reason: that it is me that this is an intelligence challenge or that it is a stupid thing from the adventures of companies by design and it has proven to be the first choice
Yes gentlemen, this is Apple, and this is what distinguishes it by weaning people from what they expect is important
Philosophy, study, design, sell, profit, every time you do it, as you mentioned
As for us, with what I see, use and buy, why do we not think in the same way for many solutions that do not necessarily have to be smartphones
Creativity is based on simplicity and efficiency, and some times the opposite of walking, why not if it was thoughtful and tested

I expect the user will get used to not using the power button with the time and renewal of the upcoming devices, as well as I do not think Apple will give up the fingerprint because it has not actually abandoned it and the evidence of its support in the iPhone 8 will develop it in the upcoming devices to support the full screen and the user has the choice between entering the password and fingerprint Finger and face recognition.

A useful article with the upcoming release of the iPhone X and it gives you wellness, but in my humble opinion, if Apple had integrated the Home button into the screen, as Samsung and others did, it would have been better and more comfortable than the long run and the complications that needed, but unfortunately Apple failed in that and forced and forced us with it to these impractical technologies, in the end the user wants a device My work is smooth and easy to use and not as it appears on the iPhone X, but in order to fully judge the topic, one must experiment before or take my experienced opinion of it after its release, God willing, thank you

I don't know what the benefit of the pressure sensor on the screen is, or does Apple just want to get rid of useful things? If Samsung removed the home button and added a software button, it also added a button under the screen in a way similar to the pressure sensor technology on the screen. It responds even if the screen is off. The gestures since Palm, webOS, Mojo and BlackBerry 10 were not that bad, and I had used BlackBerry 10 and the way to close applications by swiping up was actually very normal, but the problem with gestures is that they are completely linked to the software. I mean, software freezing means gestures freezing, and there is no escape then. In general, I hope that Apple will wait in this matter and in the matter of the fingerprint and the Arabic font. The issue is not in getting rid of or changing it. The issue lies in the millions of users who will be negatively affected by such developments that require sacrifices at the expense of other important things!

These are the features that we have known for years on the iPhone 4s
You believe we used these movements on the iPhone 4S

I was also using it on iPhone 5 & 5s & 7
It is not strange and also has more advantages than this mentioned

XNUMX- Close the screen by dragging on the clock bar

XNUMX- Waking up the screen to know the time by double clicking on the screen while it is closed and closing it and vice versa.
XNUMX- Open multitasking from the bottom of the screen, from the left or right, or close the application

4- The control center is calculated from the middle only to the top or to the side.

XNUMX- Close all applications by dragging the main screen down from the middle

XNUMX- Screen imaging according to two fingers on the screen

XNUMX- Play music by dragging with three fingers

And a lot, Apple, we were doing and still doing, as if we hadn't used the home button

This is in the world of Cydia for years and we know it
We see it very late in a new phone that must live up to the level of sophistication

IPhone X, or its real name, iPhone10
Too late for evolution

These features are for me and for all Cydia users we know well and there are many and there are better

Conclusion: Failed features, old and old Apple
You are tempting them as an evolution and distinction, which is late and not new

If Apple took advantage of the 3D Touch feature instead of these time-wasting shortcuts, for example, instead of swiping from the top to the bottom, I could press hard in the middle of the bottom of the device.

Unfortunately, Apple does not deserve all this glorification
1- It's the last smartphone to let go of the Home button
2- It is the last smartphone to give up the puzzle (the unused interface)
3- It is the last smartphone that supports fast charging (and worse than that, it comes separately and is not in the phone box)
4- And it is the last smart phone to support wireless charging (and it does not have the fast wireless charging found in other phones)
5- And it is the last smartphone that raises the screen resolution to more than FHD

I do not deny that it started in many things, but it was not distinguished by it, and other companies will soon follow it
Like the fingerprint and the two cameras, and we will soon see the face id on other phones

But her giving up some technology will soon reduce her bone
Like fingerprint and wired headphones
And it is one of the first phones to give up these technologies

    I agree with you, Apple no longer offers anything new, and the problem is in canceling the old. I don’t see Apple pursuing companies technically, unlike what it was in the past. It was a pioneer. Apple’s time is coming to an end. It must review its accounts, otherwise I fear that it will be lost like the rest of the other companies, such as Nokia, HTC, Motorola.

    The touch id technology in the screen is present and has been invented by other devices
    But the reason it was not placed on the iPhone is because of its slow response
    It takes time to read the fingerprint

    But it is possible to see it after its development in other devices
    And if Apple gives up technology it will never return it
