My wife has let me know that she is having some issues with her new XS not picking up presses on the screen. Namely when she opens up the calculator and starts to enter numbers it will randomly (but happens enough to be an issue) drop digits. Or when she goes to hit the microphone to use dictation to send a text, it won't pick up that key press.

I just tried it and couldn't replicate it -- and I had her do it and it didn't happen. But it has happened enough that she is annoyed by it.

I can't decide if this is a software lag issue, she is not really hitting the screen hard enough (she is very tiny), or a hardware problem.

Any thoughts or advice?

Not this again! Didn't the calculator animations interfere with the function a few years ago?

I typed out a text today and hit send 20 times before it sent. First and hopefully only time I have this happen.
