iOS version >= 13.0

UIApplication.shared.windows is deprecated from iOS 15.0, we can replace it like below:

    var hasHomeButton: Bool {
        let window = UIApplication
            .shared
            .connectedScenes
            .compactMap { $0 as? UIWindowScene }
            .flatMap { $0.windows }
            .first { $0.isKeyWindow }
        guard let safeAreaBottom =  window?.safeAreaInsets.bottom else {
            return false
        }
        return safeAreaBottom <= 0
    }

In SwiftUI you can also use this variable, but don't use it from init() of your SwiftUI view struct.

For iOS 13 and higher:

    var isBottom: Bool {
    if #available(iOS 13.0, *), UIApplication.shared.windows[0].safeAreaInsets.bottom > 0 {
        return true
    }
    return false
}

Check the safe area:

if @available(iOS 11.0, *), 
    UIApplication.sharedApplication.keyWindow?.safeAreaInsets.bottom > 0 {
    return true
}
return false

Swift 4.2 version:-

var isBottom: Bool {
    if #available(iOS 11.0, *), let keyWindow = UIApplication.shared.keyWindow, keyWindow.safeAreaInsets.bottom > 0 {
        return true
    }
    return false
}

You can also check the device type (check out this post), but checking the safe area is probably the easiest way.
