Ever since I downloaded iOS 16 the home screen when I touch the edge, makes all the apps jiggle, and can accidentally be deleted. How can I make it so if I touch the edge of the screen, it won’t do this, it’s very irritating to lose apps and have to replace them.
Hello CoinHunter2,
There's no way to stop this action. Perhaps you can Change 3D or Haptic Touch sensitivity on your iPhone to see if it may keep you from easily pressing the screen.
How to turn on 3D or Haptic Touch
1. Open Settings and tap Accessibility.
2. Tap Touch.
3. Tap 3D & Haptic Touch. Depending on the device you have, only the 3D Touch or the Haptic Touch option might appear. For 3D Touch, turn on the feature, then use the slider to select a sensitivity level. For Haptic Touch, choose a touch duration speed, then tap the image to test your setting.
These devices support Haptic Touch: iPhone SE (2nd generation), iPhone XR, and iPhone 11 and later.
These devices support 3D Touch: iPhone 6s, iPhone 6s Plus, iPhone 7, iPhone 7 Plus, iPhone 8, iPhone 8 Plus, iPhone X, iPhone XS, and iPhone XS Max.
Also, feel free to provide your feedback to Apple here:
Best Regards.
