A free app for Android, by Sylvain Lagache.
X Home Bar is an app designed to give your device the look and functionality of the iPhone X's home button, which makes it perfect for those who want to experience the iPhone X interface or replace a broken home button. With this app, you can enjoy the convenience of an iPhone X-like home button located at the bottom of your screen.

The home button functions through simple swipe gestures. Swipe up, left, or right to trigger different actions based on your selection. The available actions include Home, Recent Apps, Back, and Pull Down Notification Panel. By swiping in the desired direction, you can easily navigate and perform these actions.
Please note that if your device already has a navigation bar with Home, Back, and Recent Apps buttons, the X Home Bar button will be positioned above the navigation bar.
To provide the selected functionality, X Home Bar requires the Device Administrator permission. However, the app only utilizes the "force-lock" administrator policy, which locks the device after the user performs the chosen action.
The app also requests the Read Phone State permission, which is solely used to load the list of applications due to limitations imposed by certain manufacturers. The Write Internal Storage permission is required to save screenshots on the device.
