My screen shakes when i scroll up and down

My screen shakes when i scroll up and down, in any app, You won't notice it at first, but when i stare at my screen for a long time, you'd notice it there. I tried the same on my iphone 5 and mini, but the screen works just fine when I scroll about.

at first i thought it was an iOS8 bug and that it would go away after an update or so. But the problem persisted even after updating to iOS8.1.1.

anyone else experiencing this problem? should I just take my phone to a store (I am far from an apple store)?

iPhone 6 Plus, iOS 8.1.1

Yeah the same thing happened to me, then I realized that it was plugged into a non MFI certified cable cord. when I plugged it in an original OEM or when it was unplugged all together the shakes stopped !

I was just charging my phone reading about this issue when I read your comment. I was like "yeah right".

Then I unplugged my iPhone from my wife's Samsung plug and the problem went away!

Thanks :)

I unplugged my phone from my apple charger and non apple wall plug and used a non apple charger and another non apple wall plug. I was at 4%, now I'm at 8% and it's working great. It might be a bad charger. Hope this helps your shaking screens.

Hi xillain,

Thanks for contributing to the Apple Support Communities.

It sounds like you're noticing unusual behavior with your iPhone screen. If the screen seems to shake or jitter when you scroll up and down, I recommend these steps:

Try to restart your device. If you can't restart, reset your device.
If restarting or resetting doesn’t fix the issue, restore your device.
If you still see the issue after you restore, contact Apple Support.

From:

Get help with the screen on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

Sincerely,

Jeremy

Me too and mine is a iPhone 6s! It only started happening today without warning or any glitches. It just suddenly magically happened. When I 3D Touch an icon in messages, the tab will suddenly start vibrating about and when I scroll and stop scrolling but rest my finger on the screen, it will start vibrating up and down for no particular reason. I am on iOS 10.2 Public Beta 1. Anyone else having this problem too?

I'm having the same issue, but I'm also having battery issues. I just got this phone maybe 3 months ago, and this is the first time I'm having issues with Apple. It's very disappointing because I haven't been able to find solutions to either of my problems. The shaking just started today, but I'm already sick of it.

Same here.

Feel like I made a mistake upgrading the software.

I'm waiting for an immediate release fixing the problem.
