The absence of home button on the iPhone X will surely create some issues for new iPhone users. For old iPhone users too, this revolutionary iPhone X will pose some challenges.
For example, until now, you have accessed Siri by pressing the home button. But in this new iPhone X, there is no home button and therefore, you need to use some tricks to activate Siri on iPhone X without the home button.
Thankfully, we have come up with two methods to access Siri on iPhone X without using the home button. You can always use Hey Siri option or use the AssistiveTouch button to turn on Siri on iPhone X without the home button.
