    Any tips on how to unstick the home button? Newish enough 6s and has been sticking since early this morning. No liquids or anything sticky have been near it so dunno why it's sticking all of a sudden

    Probably faulty. Apparently in Asia they're so afraid of the home button breaking they use Assistive Touch all the time.

    Apple will replace it for you. Better to get it fixed while it's still under warranty.

    Seriously?? Would it just kick in all of a sudden? It was in PWO last night but when I got up this morning and still now it's still sticking.

    It was more common with earlier iPhones and usually happens from overuse. But yeah it can just break suddenly as well. It might loosen up a bit but once these things starts giving trouble...

    I recently had to send my 6s off (faulty battery) so I know how annoying this is.
