Edit screen mode
My apps jiggle too easy (screen editing mode). I’m worried I might delete an important app while the phone is in my pocket

Hey EsandPee,
If you feel your iPhone is a bit too sensitive to your input, you can adjust how it responds to touch using the tips here: Adjust how iPhone responds to your touch - Apple Support
This specifically would fall under a tap-and-hold gesture:
"Adjust settings for touch-and-hold gestures
The touch-and-hold gesture reveals content previews, actions, and contextual menus. If you have trouble performing this gesture, do the following:
- Go to Settings
> Accessibility > Touch, then tap Haptic Touch or 3D & Haptic Touch. - Choose the touch duration—Fast or Slow.
- On an iPhone with 3D Touch, you can also choose the pressure needed—Light, Medium, or Firm.
- Test your new settings on the image at the bottom of the screen."
Let us know if that helps.
Cheers!
