The problem is discoverability. I've had an ipad since 2007 and had no idea about most of the gestures he mentions. Novice users would get horribly stuck without the one no-brainer emergency exit that the physical button offers.
- smackfu 15y agoEven the home button doesn't have very good discoverability, between the long press and the double tap and the triple tap. Those are the kind of thing you do accidentally, and then can't figure out how you did them to do it again.

- golgo13 15y agoThat is no longer the case. I have an unmodded iPad 1 and I can do the Grab to close, 4 finger app switch, etc. Just enable them in the settings. http://www.zdnet.com/blog/hardware/how-to-activate-ipad-2-multitasking-gestures-on-the-ipad-1/16186 http://www.zdnet.com/blog/hardware/how-to-activate-ipad-2-mu...
