You can swipe back to the home screen from the very bottom of your screen after Siri has been triggered, or you can say or type “Bye Siri.”
Getting used to using Siri can be a bit of a struggle without the precious home button. Since Siri can be triggered easily by pressing the side (or power) button for a little too long, as Siri can get activated by mistake very often, you need to be careful about how you treat your phone. Siri is a useful tool, however, and you can now get a lot more done thanks to Siri with the latest iOS 12 update.
