So my home button is broken, so i use assistive touch to use the home button. I turned on guided access but the part of my screen that i cant use is the part where my assistive touch pops up. therefore i can't exit out because i can't triple click my home button. Also, I can't shut down the phone because Guided Access is enabled. HOW DO I GET OUT OF GUIDED ACCESS?????
Use Guided Access with iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support
End a Guided Access session
If you're using Touch ID on your iOS device, you can use it to end a Guided Access session. First, go to Settings > General > Accessibility > Guided Access > Passcode Settings and turn on Touch ID. Now, when you're using Guided Access, you can end the session by following these steps:
- Press the Home button once.
- Use Touch ID.
If you're not using Touch ID on your device, follow these steps to end a Guided Access session:
- Triple-click the Home button.
- Enter the Guided Access passcode.
In your position, your Home button would be the only means to take your iPhone out of Guided Access short of doing a complete Restore on your iPhone.
Look for a backup, or make one by following this article first.
