iPhone Screen – How to Fix Periodically Unresponsive iPhone Screen

iphone

My iPhone 6 had a problem where the screen stops responding to touch for a period of time. It always becomes responsive again after a while, although sometimes it requires a power button cycling.

For reasons I cannot explain, I feel this is a software issue. It happens in all apps, but it seems to have a sort of schedule.

Has anyone else an anything like this?

This advise is only meant for iPhone 6 and iPhone 6plus. ONLY.

If you experience problems with your screen being unresponsive, you may suffer from a design flaw of iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 plus that is described here.

So this means your phone is probably broken and has to be replaced eventually. But you can try the following for the time being.

This worked for my phone:

Apply some some light pressure to the case as you would pretend to twist or bend your phone. Only apply light pressure. Don't really bend it though. Just apply some pressure and check if the display is reacting again. It worked in my case. You will have to repeat this all the time it does not respond to touch.
