iPhone 8: Exit the Home button, comes the Software Bar?

We are about two weeks away from the launch of the new iPhone, and although some rumors are already almost a certainty, the only thing that seems to be guaranteed is that this new Apple device will bring some changes to the way we use it. Already several rumors point in this direction, however, this possibility has now been reinforced by Bloomberg Technology, according to which, Apple will remove the ?home? of the cell phone screen, replacing it with a "Software Bar". According to the same source, this new bar takes over all the functions of the home button, allowing full control of the screen and navigation on the iPhone, from the outset, locking or unlocking the screen, opening the Multitasking menu, accessing the Control Center, etc. The most important thing to remember is that Apple is not simply reproducing the 'home' button virtually, but trying to improve the 'user experience'. If confirmed, this will undoubtedly be the biggest change in the iPhone's design since its launch in 2007!
