Sometimes my iPhone home button will stop working completely like the phone freezes and nothing works. Has anybody heard of this before
After more than 15 years covering everything Apple, it’s with a heavy heart we announce that we will no longer be publishing new content on iMore and the iMore forums will be closing as of November 1st, 2024.
I actually just had that happen this morning, and it has happened once before. I have to leave my phone be for a few minutes and then it goes back to normal. Both times have happened when I've been within an app.
iPhone 7 plus running iOS 10
Well, I have another problem: sometimes my home button acts up and when I click it it feels like it clicks a thousand times while I rest my finger... Do y'all know what I mean?But then I do a home button reset and everything is getting back to normal.
It mostly happens when I charge it by using my MacBook.
Is this a 7/7plus or a 6/6s?
No I haven't but I have worried about it. I sometimes worry that if it's stop working I'll have to use that accessory button that you activate from the settings. Maybe 10 years ago when I had a blackberry, the ball would always cause problems. I'd have to open and clean it. My friends who had models with the buttons eventually had to replace them. I was a little worried switching from android that I would end up having problems with a physical button once again.
