Why is my iphone selecting random apps/buttons on its own and locking me out of my phone? Why is my iphone selecting random apps/buttons on its own and locking me out of my phone? My phone has been acting really strange. It's been randomly scrolling and selecting apps and clicking random keys when I try to message someone. Half of the time I can't even open my phone because it won't let me slide up to open it. The same would happen when I tried to restart it, it wouldn't let me slide the power off switch. I'm not sure if the touch screen is broken or if it's some type of virus.

Hi,

Do a force restart the iphone.

Check this link --- https://support.apple.com/guide/iphone/force-restart-iphone-iph8903c3ee6/ios

Remove the screen protector if any.

Hope it helps.

Thank you.
