Since the first beta of iOS 11, many users have tried to continue using some of the functions that they had become accustomed to in the latest versions of iOS. The possibility of accessing the last open applications by pressing on the left edge of the screen, was one of those affected by the new version, but fortunately and due to popular clamor, Apple has decided to add it again with the launch of the final version of iOS 11.1, a version of which the second beta for developers was released yesterday. Another feature he removed was the access to the Notification Center from the middle of the screen when we make use of the Easy reach function, better known as Reachability.
This function is very comfortable when we use our device with one hand, especially if we do it from a plus model. A MacRumors reader contacted Craig Federighi by email, who confirmed that they were working to fix this bug, a bug that apparently had gone unnoticed by the Apple team but not by our reader Fernando Sanz at Telegram group Actualidad iPhone. Craig's answer was clear: "we are fixing it." At the moment this bug It has not been fixed in the latest beta that Apple has released of iOS 11.1.
Since the first beta of iOS 11, if we want to access the notification center using the Reachability function we have to slide your finger to the top edge of the screen, which does not allow us to access notifications with one hand, this function ceasing to make sense, a function that came to iOS with the launch of the iPhone 6 with iOS 8, to facilitate access to the entire screen with just one hand. Although the new iPhone X does not have a home button, the Reachability function will also be available on this model, what we do not know at the moment is how it will be activated
