New Trick Even For Your Old iPhone

How to Activate Secret Button on iPhone


Recently I came across a new function on an iPhone. At first, I was going to skim over the post where it was described thinking that it is probably not for my iPhone 8 but for the shiny new ones. Turned out, good thing I instead tried it out. It worked very well on my phone. And now I have a brand new feature on an older phone.

Turn the Apple logo on the back of your phone into an extra button. You will need iOS 14 for the feature to work. However, it works on many different versions of iPhones with iOS 14. That includes iPhone 11, iPhone 11 Pro Max, iPhone XS, iPhone XS Max, iPhone XR, iPhone X, iPhone 8, iPhone 8 Plus, iPhone 7, iPhone 7 Plus, iPhone 6s, and iPhone 6s Plus.

- Yes you can

Here Is How:

» Go to your Settings
» Click on Accessibility

» Scroll down and click Touch
» Scroll down and click Back Tap and switch to On
» Choose Back Tap type - Double or Triple
» Select the function the tap will perform
BTW, all of the screenshots appearing here were made using the brand new button. I have set it up to be a quick way to access the Screenshot option. Usually, you have to press the middle button and the side button. Most of the time I end up pressing one or the other. This quick access button is so much easier.
