In this section, we will discuss different solutions to your iPhone touchscreen problem. We will cover both temporary solutions that you can do yourself, and more permanent solutions that may require professional help.1. Restart your iPhone
A simple but effective solution for many problems, including a non-working touchscreen, is to restart your iPhone. This can sometimes fix temporary software issues affecting the touchscreen. Follow these steps to restart your iPhone: - iPhone X and later: Press and hold the side button and either volume button until the power off slider appears. Drag the slider to turn off your iPhone, then press and hold the side button until the Apple logo appears to turn your iPhone back on. - iPhone 8 and earlier: Press and hold the side or top button until the power off slider appears. Drag the slider to turn off your iPhone, then press and hold the side or top button until the Apple logo appears to turn your iPhone back on.2. Check for updates and install them
Sometimes a non-working touchscreen can be caused by outdated software. Check for updates available for your iPhone and install them if necessary. Go to 'Settings' > 'General' > 'Software Update' to check for updates.
3. Remove any screen protectors or cases
While screen protectors and cases are meant to protect your iPhone, they can sometimes cause issues with the touchscreen. Try removing your screen protector or case and see if the touchscreen responds better. If it does, consider purchasing a different screen protector or case that doesn’t cause issues.4. Clean your iPhone screen
Dirt, dust, and fingerprints on your iPhone screen can affect the touchscreen’s functionality. Clean your screen with a soft, slightly damp cloth (do not use cleaning agents or alcohol). Make sure your iPhone is turned off and unplugged while cleaning.5. Check for physical damage
A cracked or damaged screen can be the cause of a non-functioning touchscreen. Carefully inspect your iPhone for cracks, dents, or other signs of damage. If you find any damage, it is advisable to have your iPhone repaired by a professional, such as leapp.6. Reset all settings
If none of the above solutions work, you can try resetting all settings on your iPhone. This will return all of your settings to their factory defaults but will keep your personal data and apps. Go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings and follow the instructions.
