Hey there,


You can’t create home button for your iPhone 16 , However you can use AssistiveTouch to adjust volume, lock your screen, use multi-finger gestures, restart your device, or replace pressing buttons with just a tap.


When you turn on AssistiveTouch, you see a button appear onscreen. You can drag the button to any edge of the screen, where it stays until you move it again. By default, tapping the button once opens the AssistiveTouch menu. Tapping once anywhere outside of the menu closes the AssistiveTouch menu.

There are a few ways to turn on AssistiveTouch. You can:

  • Go to Settings > Accessibility > Touch > AssistiveTouch, then turn on AssistiveTouch
  • Use "Hey Siri" to say, “Turn on AssistiveTouch”
  • Go to Settings > Accessibility > Accessibility Shortcut, then turn on AssistiveTouch

All The Best!


It is not clear what you are trying to accomplish.

  • Adding a physical home button to your iPhone 16? Obviously that is a no.
  • Are you referring to a function of the Home app?
