The right side of my iPhone screen is not recognizing touch. It’s the very edge of the right side of the screen.
I first noticed it with the right side of the keyboard. And then I realized it doesn’t work for anything on the edge of the right side of the screen.
i’ve tried all of the fixes that I’ve read and all the ones suggested another post to her and they don’t work.
iPhone 7, iOS 15

Getting Portions of Screen to Respond:
What to Try:
A Good Reason to Upgrade:
In the long run, I recommend you consider upgrading to a much, more recent model. Your iPhone model cannot go past iOS15. iOS17 is due in just couple of days. If this were me, I'd take this as a goo reason to upgrade. You should consider going the same.
The rest of the screen works. It is just singe the right edge of the screen. Anything that you need to click on on the right edge doesn’t work.
I have the same issue. Last month it was the left side and it resolved itself into today. Now it’s the right side.
