Hi,
how was it damaged? Any obvious physical damage to you?
a home button can only be replaced by Apple, if you do it yourself it won’t work.
do you see any assistive touch or a virtual home button on the screen?
well, some workarounds.
if you set up hey Siri, tell it to open an app. It will ask for the passcode, just enter it and you have unlocked your phone.
You can also go to the camera app on the lockscreen and tap the photos icon. Then click All photos and type the passcode. You unlocked your phone!
enable assistive touch in settings>accessibility>Touch>assistive touch and turn it on. Use it as a virtual home button for the time being.
