Home Button unresponsive after 10.3 Update

Hi,


After updating my iphone 7 Plus 128 GB to iOS 10.3, my home button has become unresponsive.

When in an app, it sometimes takes more than one press of the home button to return back to the home screen.

On the failed press, I feel the haptic feedback so this means that the phone is registering the press, it's just not minimizing the app for some reason.


I have tried to reset the iPhone and also tried a full restore.

This only started after the update to 10.3.


Is anyone else experiencing this?

It is extremely frustrating.

iPhone 7 Plus, iOS 10.3

I have loaded ios 10.3.2 still same problem. Click home key to go back dosnt go back, have to click it twice to work. Very intermittent problem tho and very annoying. Thinking of get a Cell C prepaid sim to use. My wife uses a iPhone 7 with a telkom mobile sim no problems but has ios 10.1.1. Such a premium brand apple but there ios is not reliable. And Telkom mobile sim not very reliable too.

Been on 10.3.2 public beta 4 all day.

The issue did not present itself all day! :)

Finally — I'm so happy.


iOS definitely seems more responsive and snappier too! I think we were supposed to see this performance improvement since 10.3, but for some reason didn't — until now. I'

m definitely happy so far.


I'll still post here if the issue rears its ugly head once again, of course.
