據英國《獨立報》報道，一些開發者們根據蘋果公司意外曝光的代碼推測出新款iPhone將取消Home鍵設計。Home鍵可能將徹底變為虛擬按鈕，像安卓系統那樣，出現在屏幕上。

Apple's home button is dead, according to hidden code.

根據隱藏代碼，蘋果的Home鍵要消失了。

The little circle at the bottom of the phone has been the main way of identifying Apple's handsets, at least when they're turned off. But it's about to disappear in the iPhone 8.

這個位于手機底部的小圓圈一直是識別蘋果手機的主要方式，至少在手機關閉時是這樣的。但是Home鍵即將在iPhone8上消失。

That's according to code that was accidentally released by Apple. Part of that includes a check on whether a device has a home button – something that was previously unrequired, since every iPhone had one.

這種說法的依據來源于蘋果公司無意間發布的代碼。代碼內容包括確認設備是否擁有Home鍵，這些代碼曾是多余的，因為iPhone手機都有Home鍵。

“@stroughtonsmith 已經確定Home鍵死亡。安息吧。”

It's possible that the reference is to other devices that run some form of iOS and don't have a home button, like the Apple TV. But the removal of the home button in the iPhone squares with other code found in the release, pictures that are also included within it, and years of rumours.

這條代碼可能指的是沒有Home鍵的其他IOS設備，比如蘋果電視機頂盒。但是公開的其他代碼、代碼內的圖片以及多年來的謠言都能與這種說法對上號。

Pictures found in the code that appear to depict the new phone, for instance, show the design including some of the "forehead" that sits at the top, but none of the "chin" at the bottom that houses the button. As such, there appears to be no space for a physical home button and it will presumably be depicted on screen instead, as it is on Android.

比如，圖片代碼中的一些描述似乎顯示了iPhone8的設計，手機的頂部還留有“前額”，但是底部Home鍵所在的“下巴”卻沒有了。因此，似乎已經沒有容納Home鍵的物理空間，它可能像安卓系統那樣，出現在屏幕上。

Some had hoped that the long-rumoured removal of the home button would actually mean that it was hidden under the bottom of the screen, and that the fingerprint sensor would shine through the display. But there appears to be no such reference to a TouchID fingerprint sensor, and so it's likely that the button will be entirely virtual.

一些人曾期望這則流傳已久的謠言實際上意味著將Home鍵隱藏在屏幕底下，而指紋傳感器會透過顯示屏工作。但是TouchID指紋傳感器似乎并未被提及，因此Home鍵可能將徹底變為虛擬的。

That will also mean that the button can move out of the way when it is not required, such as when people are watching videos.

這也意味著可以在不需要的時候將Home鍵移開，比如觀看視頻時。

Code found by developers including Steve Troughton-Smith and Guilherme Rambo suggest a major re-design to the phone. They and others have been picking through firmware that was apparently accidentally made available online, and includes references to many unreleased features.

史蒂夫?特勞頓?史密斯和吉列爾梅?蘭博等開發者發現的代碼表明iPhone的設計發生重大改變。他們和其他人已經從網絡上意外公開的固件中尋找蛛絲馬跡，其中涉及許多沒有公開的功能。

They have also found suggestions that the phone will be able to track people's faces. That will apparently be used to unlock the phone, as well as to see whether people are paying attention to the screen and so change things on the display accordingly.

他們還發現了新款iPhone將能進行人臉識別的跡象。這種功能顯然會用來解鎖手機、檢測人們是否在關注屏幕，然后相應地改變顯示器上的內容。

The firmware was actually made for Apple's upcoming HomePod smart speaker, but it included numerous references to the new phone and other hardware as well.

網上公布的固件實際上屬于蘋果即將推出的HomePod智能音響，但它的很多設計參考了新款iPhone和其他硬件。
