Q: Calendar app in iOS 9

The touch sensitivity in Calendar month view is extremely poor.  Very difficult to click on a date and have it open that day.

    Doing a cold reboot didn't work.  Ive found you have to use the extreme tip of your finger (touching with very little skin surface) in order for it to work.  Using too much skin surface and you cannot open the day you are clicking on in Month view.  This wasn't a problem in iOS 8 for me.

    Apparently, this has been fixed in iOS 9.1 if you haven’t updated already.

    It was never broken in 9.0

    Maybe not on every device but it is mentioned in the iOS 9.1 release notes so Apple even confirmed it themselves.

     

    On my iPhone with 9.0.2, it is definitely is not working as it should be. It still works with very short, light taps but compared to what it was or how the touchpad reacts in other areas, it’s clearly off. Normal taps don’t work. When you click on the upper right corner on the rectangle with the two bars beneath it - in that view, taps work perfectly. Only in the full month view without additional information of the current day it is not reacting as it should.
