iPad Air disabled

Hi my iPad Air is disabled and home button doesn’t work . A local shop tired but they couldn’t fix the home button . Now I can’t connect to iTunes because of broken home button. Does any body know is it possible to connect iPad to iTunes in recovery mode with out home button ? Thanks

No, you need a functioning home button. It's time to either replace the iPad with one which isn't broken or get an out of warranty replacement from Apple at about 60% of the price of the iPad when it was new. Apple doesn't repair iPad's. They only offer out of warranty replacements. If you get a 3rd party service shop to try to fix your iPad, they may well make matter worse and Apple won't touch an iPad which has been tampered with by a 3rd party service.
