Howdy Mickey,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.

From what I gather, the touchscreen on your iPhone 6 isn't responding consistently and it's causing apps to start without you tapping them. If you haven't already, try running through the touchscreen troubleshooting suggestions in this article:

Cheers.
