Ghost Touch on the iPhone


One day, you unlocked your iPhone in the morning. Then all of a sudden, one of your iPhone apps opened by itself. Then you scratch your head and thought the iPhone played a trick on you. Then you called Apple Support and the AppleCare advisor told you that you need a screen replacement. Now let’s discover the methodology of the ghost touch on the iPhone.

Ghost Touch happens when your iPhone gets a registered tap onto its screen, but there isn’t anything touching the screen. This is a common issue with the iPhone 6s, 7 and the iPhone X. Most of the causes are from a dirty iPhone screen, or a rupture in the display module component(s).

The methods to solve the problem with Ghost Touch is by cleaning your iPhone’s screen, a partial replacement of the iPhone screen components, or an entire screen replacement. You can use a lens cloth and a bit of water to clean the screen. But if it’s a hardware issue, then you better get the Apple Genius for further help. This can be done by scheduling an appointment at your local Apple Store via the Apple Support app or in-person with a Specialist. The screen repair is free of charge, but if you paid for this following procedure for your iPhone prior to November 2018, you should contact Apple for reimbursement.

Now you know why the iPhone is opening apps out of nowhere. It’s the Ghost Touch that’s spooking you out. Take your iPhone to the Genius Bar and get the screen replaced!

Two days ago, on March 1st, 2019, Apple held their own shareholders meeting at the Steve Jobs Theater.

Various shareholders brought up issues over the last year, and they voted whether Apple’s board of executives should disclose ideological information about nominees. The meeting started with the enthusiastic Tim Cook, which he had the same excitement as a September Apple event. He kicked off the meeting by this phrase: “I love this meeting because I get to see some of my old friends here that I only see maybe once a year.” Excitement is integral in every Apple event or meeting Tim Cook steps into. When it comes to shareholder meetings, many of the people attending the event only goes there once a year. It’s not a media event, but it’s for investors and shareholders of Apple.

Apple is Taking the Initative to Manufacture Apple Products from 100% Recycled Materials

Back in 2017, Apple planned a “mining-free” future by manufacturing Apple products out of 100% recycled materials. Many experts recently added that Apple would have a way of doing this, but they don’t know how to do this right now. According to a 2017 report from Apple’s environmental leader Lisa Jackson, she stated that, It sounds crazy, but we’re working on it. We’re moving toward a closed-loop supply chain. One day we’d like to be able to build new products with just recycled materials, including your old products.... We’re actually doing something we rarely do, which is announce a goal before we’ve completely figured out how to do it. So we’re a little nervous, but we also think it’s really important, because as a sector we believe it’s where technology should be going. This implies that “closed-loop” means Apple is reusing components and parts of iOS devices to new iPhones and iPads. The change is great for Apple’s environmental protection laws, but it’s a struggle in th
