It was news to me (and presumably the case manufacturers) that the touch-sensitive part of the phone extends below the screen. I guess I don’t understand why the Control Center swipe is so different from the Notifications swipe, which works just fine in a case. I use a battery case, btw, as I’m away from a charger for most of my day. Also, one drop onto the wrong surface and it’s over, I know at 4 people personally who have ruined their iPhone this way.
