IOS 8 Home button bug

After upgrading to IOS 8 when I press the home button once to exit an app it is registered as a double click and brings me to the multitasking app switcher instead of the home screen. This didn't happen on IOS 7 - I've got an iPhone 5. Any ideas?

iPhone 5, iOS 8

Don't know what to say.

I 've updated iPhone 5s, iPhone 5, iPhone 4s and the iPad 3rd generation, no issue with the Home button.


These are the basic 4Rs basic troubleshooting steps:
