The Repair Plus home button flex (Black) for iPad 5 (2017) and iPad 6 (2018) is a replacement home button flex for the 9.7-inch iPad 5 and iPad 6. It fixes a home button that will not click, responds only sometimes or has stopped working after a drop or screen repair. This black version is brand new, OEM standard. Shipped the same day from Manchester when you order before 4pm, Monday to Friday.
Key features
- Restores the home button: brings back the press that takes you to the home screen and opens multitasking.
- Two-model fit: made for both iPad 5 (2017) and iPad 6 (2018).
- Ideal with screen repairs: the home button flex is often damaged when the glass is removed, so it is worth keeping one in stock.
- Tested before dispatch: each part is checked before it leaves us.
- Low-cost fix: far cheaper than replacing the whole screen assembly.

Compatibility
Fits the iPad 5 (2017) and iPad 6 (2018). It does not fit the iPad Air 2, iPad 7 or later 10.2-inch models, which use different home button parts. Check your iPad in Settings > General > About, where the model name and model number (starting with A) are shown.
Choosing the right colour
The black version suits iPads with a black front (Space Grey). If your iPad has a white front, choose the white or silver version so the button matches the bezel.
