Two things to consider/check: do you have a screen protector on the phone and is it possibly not applied correctly or loose? Second, is your iPhone screen clean? I have seen dirty screens cause all sorts of weird behaviour.

I am having a weird issue when media is playing on my iPhone 13 Pro. First off, I have iOS 16.0.2, and this issue is totally random when it occurs. I could be listening to a book, podcast, Internet radio stream, or a movie or show on a streaming service. At different times, the audio will suddenly stop, whether I pick up the phone, sit down at a table, grip the sides of the phone, or even touch the screen when the phone is locked. For a while, it happened once every other day or once a day, but recently it has started happening twice in 1 day. Usually I just restart the audio and everything is fine. It doesn't matter if I restart VoiceOver or the phone, the problem keeps happening. I got this phone July 31, and I don't remember this media problem happening during the first few weeks of having it. Even if it did, I wasn't in a position to do anything about it since I was going through some serious issues of my own in August. I just remembered another behavior. I was talking with a family member on the phone. I had them on speaker and had locked the phone. At some point during the call, my phone started randomly pushing the touch tone buttons. I didn't do it and the other person didn't do it either, I figure it must have been my phone that was acting up. I'm going to an Apple Store next week since this seems like a hardware issue. I have 2 questions. First, could this be a random iOS problem? And the other, I have the basic coverage plan from Apple that they give everyone who buys a new iPhone within the first year. Would I still be serviced under this plan with this weird issue? I'm thinking that if I go to an Apple Store and they run their tests on the phone, that I have a better chance of having my phone replaced. Thoughts?
