Why is the touch and swipe of iPhone 16 Pro not working? Many users complained

iPhone 16 Series: It has been only a few days since the iPhone 16 series was launched, but complaints about this phone series have started coming in. The third high-end model of this series is the iPhone 16 Pro, about which the number of users complaining is constantly increasing.

Problems happening with iPhone 16 Pro

According to a report by 9to5Mac, many users around the world have complained on social media that the touchscreen of the iPhone 16 Pro is working intermittently. Apart from this, users are also facing difficulty in tapping and swiping in this new iPhone, due to which they are forced to scroll, click and use the virtual keyboard.

Many online users around the world have reported touchscreen problems on (iPhone 16 Pro). Apart from this, there are also problems in swiping and tapping. Due to this, the functions of the phone are being greatly affected. This problem is being seen on both (iOS 18) and (iOS 18.1).

Why is my iPhone touch not working?

It is believed that such problems are occurring due to the palm rejection algorithm. This is believed to be because this problem is being seen most on the edges of the phone screen and users are facing the most problems especially around the camera control button.

According to the report, it is being said that this algorithm sometimes stops the touch function around the edges for a while when the user’s hand comes in contact with other parts of the screen.

What is the solution to this problem?

At the same time, some people say that the reason for such palm rejection algorithm is the thin bezels. In such a situation, if you use the iPhone 16 Pro with a case or cover, then the chances of the hand touching the edge of the screen will be reduced and then it will work normally.

However, this is not a permanent solution and will force users to use the iPhone 16 Pro with the case and there is no guarantee that this problem will not occur after that.

Interestingly, this problem will not occur when the phone screen is locked, which means it is a software problem. This means that Apple will soon release a new software update and through that update will provide a permanent solution to this problem in the iPhone 16 Pro. Till then, users can use their new iPhone with a case i.e. back cover.
