iPhone 16 Pro went on sale last week on September 20 after making its grand debut at the Apple event 2024. Thousands across the globe queued up to get their hands on the new flagship iPhone model and although initial reviews of the users have been decent, a few users have reported intermittent issues with responsiveness of the phone's touchscreen. As mentioned in a report by 9to5Mac, users are experiencing ignored taps and swipes resulting in missed presses, and poor scrolling and typing.

According to online complaints and testing by 9to5Mac, the touchscreen issue in the iPhone 16 Pro appears to stem from a software bug. Suggesting that the issue could be fixed with an update. The report suggests that the issue may be due to the overly sensitive touch rejection algorithm. It is likely causing intended touches to be ignored.

It is worth noting that the touchscreen is not unresponsive on the lockscreen but the issue begins to appear when the phone is unlocked and the user is swiping between home screen pages or scrolling through apps. Further backing the belief that the problem is related to software and not hardware.
