Free Up Some Space
There are also chances that if your iPhone runs out of
storage, the touch might become unresponsive. So, you can check your storage by
visiting your phone Settings > General > iPhone Storage.
It happens because it is always advised to make some storage
available for iOS to work properly. Many installed apps will freeze as they
need storage for their cached files.
So, if you don’t have enough storage space on your phone,
delete the apps that you don’t use. Apps like Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram
use lots of RAM and secondary storage on the phone. Considering recent day
scenario smart phone users can’t live without these apps, but it’s even harder
to live with an unresponsive iPhone.
Screen Cracked or
Damaged

and then it became unresponsive. The obvious reason behind this is that touch sensors
may not work on a broken screen. The display is connected to the motherboard of
your iPhone in a very intricate manner. When the iPhone is dropped that
connection may get hampered.
In case, connection between the display and the logic board
is not that strong, the touch screen won’t work properly and only screen
replacement should fix the issue. You
