It's not possible. You’ll need to repair or replace the broken item.

I can’t say I’ve ever tried that method. I don’t remember seeing it mentioned in any support articles either, to the best of my recollection.


I use my Apple Watch to complete a transaction, like paying for groceries. I’ll unload my cart, then pull up the card I want to use on my watch. When terminal is ready I just hold my watch near the terminal (about ½ to 1 inch away).

That is totally different, or let me ask you this. If I want to download a new app on my iphone, it do need a confirmation of a double click of power button before it checks faceId.


can this process be completed with iwatch because as I said home button doesn't work any more.


Issue is how to replace broken home button with something else without repair.
