iPhone 8 will lose Home Button, which will most likely be replaced by the entire bottom part of the screen, through which the user will control the phone. About the fact that we Home The button has already been said goodbye in the current generation of iPhone, it has been speculated since last spring. The news about the removal of the physical button is repeated so many times that we really probably won't see it again. But we don't have to be sad because what awaits us could be damn good.

With the first more specific information about how it will be with the new one replacement for Home Button, came a few weeks ago from analyst Ming-Chi Kuo. According to him, the bottom of the phone's display (which will now take up almost 100% front surface) is reserved for a new control panel, which will be fully interactive and through which all functions will be sensing technology.
And this new panel provides many new solutions with which Apple may come. Basically, it could be something that will be remotely similar to the Touch Bar that we know from the new MacBookFor. Home The button would have its own virtual position, which would be given. However, everything around it could change dynamically based on what the user does with their iPhonem is currently doing. All controls would be moved from the display to this place. Whether it's the "back" options or other user interface elements.
You can see how the implementation of this "Home Baru” is represented by some graphic designers. Apple Apple likes to use similar solutions across its products, and the presence of the Touch Bar in the iPhone is just a given. Of course, it won't be called that (I'm personally guessing that Home Bar), but given the latest speculation, this solution seems very real.
It also adds to the fact that it is Apple very happy with the Touch Bar and this direction in the user interface is very interesting for them. If the new iPhone 8 really got a display across the entire front, the emergence of a new Home The bar would not be disrupted in any way by the current 16:9 aspect ratio that iPhone displays have. The idea Home The bar is very inviting and for Apple this would open up many opportunities to make the phone more enjoyable for users. In my opinion, the potential is huge in this case, we'll see if it is Apple will use or not.

I wonder how it will work if they do it like this, how will it be with the protective film?
It would be great if in home It was possible to control music playback (skip to the next/previous track and play/pause) with the bar, but only part of it would be played. home bar and not the entire display. In idle mode it could only show the clock or missed calls/sms
