iPhone 14 pro aps are getting deleted in my pocket

I don't know what apple did but I cannot reduce my screen sensitivity so if I put the phone in my pocket it causes them to disappear. There is no way to adjust the screen sensitivity and it I go to make the tap long like 5 milliseconds I can't open the screen or some other issue happens. This phone really sucks, I have had iPhones since the 4 and never had so many issues with a phone before.



iPhone 14 Pro, iOS 16

Hello rbartone!


Try turning off “Tap to Wake”: Settings > Accessibility > Touch.


Also, turning off “Raise to Wake” may also help: Settings > Display & Brightness.


Another thing to try is turning the screen away from your body when you put the device into your pocket.


Have a nice day, and good luck!
