In addition to the new facial recognition system, the Face ID, iPhone X delivers several other novelties such as the OLED screen, a  Infinity, Animojis, and of course the new gestures to use your brand new cell phone, as it no longer has a Home button (either physical or capacitive).

How to get back to the home screen 471z5n

This is the most important gesture. It doesn't matter if you're watching a video, playing an app or taking a photo. To return to the home screen, just swipe up from bottom to top. The speed at which you perform this action does not change anything. If you have the iPhone horizontally, you need to drag it from bottom to top horizontally.

Missing the two taps on the home button? The gesture here is similar to returning to the home screen. The difference is that after swiping your finger from the bottom up, you have to bring the app more or less to the middle of the screen. Wait a second and all your open apps will appear in a row.

Apple claims that no need to close background apps, as both the new processor and iOS 11 won't let apps drain battery while they're not being used, but if you still want to close them, just hold down an app until a red button appears on top of it . Then just press it.
