iPhone 14 Home Button - How to turn off the white horizontal bar at the bottom of the screen?

How can I turn off the horizontal white bar that is always on the bottom of the screen? It's brighter than the text, especially using Show Reader on articles in Safari. It's very distracting in any app that allows dark mode which is a major eye saver. Thanks!


It would be great to be able to make it invisible or choose a different color, especially clear (transparent).

No, you can't turn that off. You can let Apple know your thoughts on the matter here:

And just for clarification, the iPhone 14 doesn't have a Home button.
