    Broken home button, is there a way to use Touch id

    Hi there, I broke my IPhone SE home button. I switched on the Assistive touch option and it works fine, but I can't use the Touch ID function. Is there an option, similar to Assistive touch, that makes a virtual fingerprint sensor that I can see on the display? Thanks!

    iPhone X Anyone still using Assistive touch?

    Are there anyone who still uses assistive touch feature on iPhone X to preserve buttons? I saw this feature enabled on many older iPhones but nowadays this trend has kinda faded off. I’m still one of the assistive touch users. :rolleyes:

    How can I add a mute button to my AssistiveTouch button?

    Does anyone know if this is possible? I haven't found any documentation. I can add a Volume Up or Volume Down button, but not Mute, which for me would be a helpful shortcut. Thanks.
