Screen and keyboard sensitivity on iPhone.

is there a solution to touch screen sensitivity on iPhone? My phone is fine for a short time but if I use it for more than say 15 mins it starts to be totally erratic, typing random letters eg or not recognising which area is being touched. A force restart using volume buttons and power off will solve it but not for long. The phone is current with all auto updates.

Thanks for your response. However I have previously tried these "solutions", all listed online under various forums. They do not fix the problem. It is a real issue with the phone. Many people are experiencing this and I have not seen any real solution offered. Is Apple looking at addressing it? Is the sensory layer faulty? I feel Apple should replace these phones. It is not up to the expected standard for Apple products.
