Gesture Pinch

Anyone can confirm the guesture (5-finger pinch) ?--M2m 17:29, 8 August 2011 (MDT)

No idea, but rebooting will do it. Ironically, this app is probably against Apple policies for using hardware buttons :) --Ryccardo 11:05, 9 August 2011 (MDT)
Regarding the hardware buttons, lots of Apple default apps don't follow the guidelines. Take Camera.app in iOS 5, the guidelines don't allow hooking the volume button. --5urd 11:13, 9 August 2011 (MDT)
The secret gesture to get to the home screen is not really a gesture at all. You just press down firmly on the upper-left corner so that the power button gets pressed down long enough to make slide to power off pop-up. Then you slide it, then you press the corner again so that it boots up to the home screen. From there you can choose any apps you want, but the home button will still be disabled. --The preceding unsigned comment was added by Sonny788 (talk) 15:51, 11 August 2011 (MDT). Please consult this page for more info on how to sign pages, and how to fix this.
So the power button still works and the home button isn't disabled by the app, but by the hardware or OS. I will test that next time I go to the Apple Store because I went yesterday and tried pinching and swiping up (multitasking bar) and they didn't work. (Plus an employee looked at me like what the heck?) --5urd 17:43, 11 August 2011 (MDT)
Can also confirm the Home Button is disabled by the OS or the iPad. Went to an Apple Store this sunday and 5 finger didn't work to exit. Found a Smart Sign iPad where the maps app was running and also the home button didn't work.--M2m 17:43, 15 August 2011 (MDT)
