iPhone 8 Concept shows a Very Useful Home Button

iPhone 8 appears today in a very interesting new concept that tries to show us how a virtual Home button could be really useful. We already know that the iPhone 8 will no longer have a physical Home button because Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), expand the screen on the entire front panel of the future smartphone, so we will have a completely new experience of using the virtual Home button for iOS 11.

iPhone 8 in the concept below shows us a Home bar, that is, a portion of the screen that is thought to have a series of functions implemented in iOS 11. More precisely, the iPhone 8 would display there notifications from applications, a virtual Home button, but also information or shortcuts for other applications, work which would make the use of the new smartphone much simpler, if Apple would allow us to customize them.

iPhone 8 with this Homebar could also display information from the music application, the possibility of making phone calls, or setting an alarm, all very simple and easy. Basically, the idea behind this tweak is very similar to what some tweaks in Cydia offer, and Apple could make the iPhone 8 extremely useful with all this, but it's hard to say if it really wants to do that for us.

iPhone 8 will be presented next month and released 10-14 days after that, but for now the dates are not known.
