Ever since I had been using IOS devices, one major concern that I had was that the home button is the mostly used button on the iphone, ipod touch and the ipad so most likely it's gonna be the first one I'm going to break due to usage. I asked friends and searched the web to get an application that would alleviate the wear and tear on such devices thinking there was something out there but little did I knew that there was a built in function for that. It's the enabling of the
Assistive Touch or having a "virtual home button". Here's how:
1. Tap on the
Settings icon then hit
General
2. Now tap on Accessibility, then Assistive Touch and turn it on
3. Now you should be able to see a virtual button with a white-colored circle somewhere at the side of your screen. When you tap on it, you'll be given options as to what actions you want to do
Now you don't have to always push the home button just to close applications or go back to your main screen. With this virtual button you' be able to preserve your device's physical one.
