This is a great hack for so many people. Firstly, if you have a physical disability that makes it difficult or painful to press your iPhone's home button, you won't have to suffer anymore. There's also a fair few of us who have used our phones to the point of total home button breakdown. And why replace with a brand-new gadget when you can easily use this little trick? The third group of people this tactic benefits is those who are simply too lazy to bother with an actual button!
Head to Settings > General > Accessibility to start. Then, click on 'home button' and turn on 'rest finger to unlock'. And there you have it - the best way to avoid having to press your home button to unlock. You'll never have to worry about it ever again if you keep these settings in place.
