I’m trying to rearrange stickers I’ve created but I can’t remember how I’ve done it before and I didn’t see anything when I searched here.
Any help please?

On an iPhone, firmly pressing an icon typically refers to using Haptic Touch. However, you don't need to apply a lot of pressure. Instead, follow these steps:
You may adjust the sensitivity.
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.

Thank you, that’s what I had been doing but nothing would happen (or the sticker would still just eventually wind up within the text)
Is it normal to have to press down on the screen so hard for those prompts to show up?
I felt like I was using a torque wrench!
Hello~ No…you should not have to press down hard at all. Click on below and review…

Have you ever had touch screen issues on other devices? Some people due to certain conditions….

~Katana-San~,
This is the only device I use and prior to last few months, I never had any issues with touch screen and then I started to notice my screen hadn’t been responding to my touch like it had been and it was other things than just the stickers.
Other than having to press a LOT harder than normal to do certain tasks, I’m also having to press on things multiple times before the action takes effect.
I thought it had something to do with the screen protector but it’s the same one I’ve been using for years.
While I am happy to find out that the steps to rearrange stickers hasn’t changed, I am still stumped on this part. lol.

Jenna ~ As your iPhone 12 is an old model, it's worth checking for a weak, aging battery which can cause touch screen issues. So...
Does your iPhone 12 still have its original battery?
And what's the Maximum Capacity % here?...
Settings > Battery > Battery Health & Charging

Hello once more~ If there are still issues…I recommend that you try the information than *Alancito* put up for you. It may be that your battery could indeed be causing your issue. Post back and let us know? You take care and it’s been nice working with you.

Jenna ~ I didn't ask whether "the battery is fine". I asked what the Maximum Capacity % is.
To be clearer, this icon is the Settings app:
...Tap it to open Settings app. Then scroll down to Battery and tap it. Then tap Battery Health & Charging and tell us what the Maximum Capacity % is. If its value is only "––", let us know that.

Hi Katana-San,
I’ve had Apple do so many screen shares with me and they find nothing wrong with my settings or phone performance. (so they say)
When I contact them, it’s always a 2 hour call and I just keep getting one big runaround.
For the last 3 years, I’ve been lucky if I get to use my phone more than 3 hrs a day with all the other issues it has.
It’s ungodly frustrating to no end. Especially when I’ve been dealing with the same issues I’ve had for the last 3yrs ago and now have newer issues.
sorry if this came across as a rant but I’m just aggravated 😕
Oh and does the forum not do auto caps or autocorrect things or is this another issue I have with my phone? 😂
Jenna ~ That original Apple battery at 87% Maximum Capacity is well above Apple's suggested 80% level for battery replacement — so it's unlikely to be causing the touch screen issue.
Did you buy the iPhone 12 new?
Has its display been replaced?

Hello once more~ Have you taken your iPhone into the Apple Store? Do you still have a screen protector on your iPhone? As far as coming across as a rant …I do understand your frustration and participation here has taught me as a volunteer to be considerate of other’s frustrations. We are trying to our very best to help you my friend…it’s what we enjoy doing. Hang in there with us?

Katana-San,
thank you for understanding…. It’s been a heck of a ride with this. I haven’t been to the Apple Store in years as it’s now almost 2 hrs away from me.
I’ve been using a BodyGuardz screen cover since about day one. I did get this phone when it first came out also if that means anything.
Thank you for understanding my “cranky moment”. I really do appreciate any help that’s given.
Hello again ~ You’re amongst friends here. I hate to ask but have you tried taking that screen protector off and trying? Don’t do it without a replacement though. Click on below to see if there’s a location closer…
You need to have this iPhone examined to find out what’s going on. I am going to keep digging to see if I can come up with some other suggestions. My Apple Store is an hour away but that’s where I would be headed if I were having your issues. My problem with going into the Apple Store is coming home with new stuff!! ;-)

Ok so I can finally rearrange my stickers!!!!! Phewwwww!!!!
Thank you to everyone in this thread that helped me remember how I had done it in the past!
As for the other issues…. I’m too tired to even try to deal with those this evening lol.
thank you all!!! 😊

Jenna ~ Yes, it does mean something: iPhone 12 first came out October 2020, which means yours is 4 years, 3 months old. That's when batteries degrade and cause a variety of issues – including touch screen issues.
And I wonder if that 87% Maximum Capacity is accurately reflecting the battery's health – as the % typically declines by 1% every couole of months or so. One would then expect the Max Capacity to be around 75% – which is well below Apple's key 80% level for battery replacement.
...So consider having the likely weak, original four-year-old battery replaced:

Hello~ Excellent information *Alancito*. My iPhone 12 mini hung on 87% for a very long time and having the battery changed well…was a game changer. Thanks for all the work invested here and otherwise. It’s really appreciated.

How can I rearrange stickers on iPhone with iOS 18?
