Functions of the Home Button

Pressing the home button once wakes the phone if it’s in locked mode. That’s sometimes easier than finding the Sleep switch on the top edge. It gives you a quick glance at your missed calls and texts — or the time and date.If, once the phone is awake, you press the Home button twice quickly, the current image fades away — to reveal the new iOS 7 app switcher screen. This feature is the key to the iPhone’s multitasking feature. But the real question here is are you really multitasking? Or just wasting time and not getting anything accomplished when you should be going through the app development project and the overload of emails that are continually piling up in your inbox In Settings → General → Accessibility, you can set up a triple-press of the Home button to turn one of several accessibility features on or off: Guided Access, VoiceOver, Invert Colors (white-on-black type, Zoom, Switch Control, and AssistiveTouch.
