iPhone screen moving without being touched

Looking for some advice. My iPhone XR screen is moving without being touched. It flicks between various apps and sending a text is impossible. My screen is cracked and has been for a while. Is this a problem that repairing the screen will fix or is it another more complicated issue? Thanks.

iPhone XR, iOS 14

Screen not sensitive to touch Hi I find the iphone13 screen is not very responsive to touch. Sometimes I need to swipe a few times for it to respond to my action. Can this be corrected? My iPhone 6sPlus is more responsive to swiping than the 13.

Your screen digitizer had failed. You need to have Apple replace the screen.

Hard to diagnose a display issue with a busted screen.

Get it repaired.

It should be fixed when you repair the screen.

I'm pretty sure the reason the screen behaves the way it does is because the screen is cracked.
