Has anyone else experienced the home indicator on the bottom of the screen go missing, while all other functions work (music still playing, screen responsive and can open control center & apps within)? It would randomly occur, and I wouldn't be able to close apps or unlock the phone.

Hey Chris,
Sometimes this white bar ^ would just disappear, and I'd have to force restart, it's probably just a software bug and waiting for the update would be the only option...
