Clean it off with a dry tissue, grease smears would do that. So would a loose screen cover of a case that otherwise completely covers the phone. But you'd feel the ripple of the cover under your finger if it was that. R. - Original Message - From: "Jeremy Gilley"

Re: Touch screen problems on a iphone 6s

If you have an Apple store near you and can get there, I would go there. Maybe they OU a replacement under AppleCare? It sounds like there is something seriously wrong with that phone. At some point, somebody is probably going to recommend a full system restore. But if that doesn't help, it

Yeah, I have never used any type of screen covering, and the glass is clean, and I just have a very basic case on it that covers the back of the phone. It has never been dropped or dunked into any kind of water etc. -Original Message- From: 'RobH.' via VIPhone

To label a button, do a two finger double tap and hold, you will hear the sound, and a pop up screen will appear. You will be in the edit field with the current name of the button. Just delete what is there, and type the name you want. Once done, just make sure you double tap on the save

I would say no, because it is meant to let you rename or to change the text for something. It would let you change the label for the image, but not to copy the image itself. For copying images, do a double tap and hold to see what options are in the pop up menu. I would say there might

If the screen is clean and all that and it is so unreliable then you can try a full restore and set up as a new phone, if that doesn't fix it then it definitely sounds like a defect and should be covered under Apple's warranty even if you didn't buy Apple Care Plus. You say the phone is a 6S so
