The trick to using the phone with one hand is to double-tap the home button. This would bring whatever screen you're on down a few inches, enabling you to tap something at the top of the screen. It works similarly for your home screen. But make sure that you double-tap and not double-click.

Also, remember that you do not have to press down on the home button when you double-tap, you only have to lightly touch the button. On the other hand, you press it down when you double-click.
