I have an iPhone 11 and sometimes when I try to open an app or something in a folder, the phone will open a different app or try and remove apps, folders. It has the little minus sign next to everything and on many occasions it will not stop, if this makes sense

iPhone 11, iOS 16

If it has the little minus sign you are tapping the apps too hard or too long, that removes the apps from your screen. Gently tap a blank section of your screen to make it stop. If this persists you may have a hardware issue and should have it tested at an Apple Store.
