I am resending this message from Richard because it saved my bacon while I was 
trying to learn the gestures without the home button  on my new iPhone 13 Pro. 
Since many of us may have gotten new phones without the old faithful home 
button over the holidays, thought I would re-post. Thanks Richard.
