Users online are reporting touchscreen issues on the iPhone 16 Pro, where certain swipes and taps fail to register, significantly impacting its functionality. This issue has been seen on both iOS 18 and iOS 18.1.
It seems the palm rejection algorithm is the primary culprit causing the touchscreen issues, particularly around the edges of the screen, especially near the Camera Control button.
Some users speculate that the aggressive palm rejection algorithm is due to the thinner bezels, and an effective workaround is to use a phone case to prevent accidental edge touches.
Interestingly, the touchscreen issues do not appear when the screen is locked, indicating that the problem is likely rooted in software, which suggests a quick fix from Apple in an upcoming update.
