I remember well, Karen. -----Original Message----- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Karen Poulakos Sent: Saturday, August 13, 2022 9:27 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: iPhone SE.
It’s really hard for me to tell whether the Home button is actually moving or not. I’ve heard that it doesn’t. When I put pressure on it, I feel what feels more like a slight knock, or a single vibration, in the phone itself, rather than under my finger. It’s a different response than with my first generation SE. Hard to describe. Ok, I just pulled out my old phone. That button moves much more than what I am feeling with my new phone. There was also a slight clicking sound from the button on my old SE. I don’t think the button on the SE2022 is moving. The functionality of these devices is totally amazing to me. Guess that’s because I remember when phones were wired into our homes. When I was young, back in the 50’s, we even had a Party line. For you younger people, that was a line shared between 2 or more families, who may not even live next to each other. If you picked up the receiver and heard someone talking, you would have to hang up and wait till they were finished before making your call. Back then we only had to dial 5 digits to make a local call, until they added new prefixes, then it was 7 digits. And the first 2 digits were indicated by letters of the alphabet, rather than numbers. Those were the days. . .

I thought that the second generation had the physical home button. Maybe not? I could be wrong about that.

Apple had some good reasons for abandonning the home button. They ware out over time. Also, not having a home button improves water resistance. One way to feel the results of the gestures which replace the home button for VoiceOver usders is to go into VoiceOver audio settings and set the haptics to a higher percent. This makes those indicator bumps easier to feel. Personally, even without taking that step, I've never had a problem feeling the bumps even when I can't hear the sounds. I don't miss the home button at all.

In many ways I still wish I had a home button. I believe it a serious error of Apple not to include home buttons in their later models of the iPhone. I contend it makes it harder to use, not easier; every try and hear that little sound or feel it while any background noise is happening? Or, can you enter the home button via voice command instead of that back press work around action? -- Curtis Delzer H.S.
