your inputs and are not recommended for touch screen 

devices.

 

Ensure that your hands are clean and dry when tapping the 

touch screen.

 

Restart your device to clear any temporary software bugs.

 

Ensure that your device’s software is upgraded to the latest 

version.

 

If the touch screen is scratched or damaged, take your 

device to a Samsung Service Centre.
