Fingers are damp/wet
When using a touch screen device, make sure your fingers are not damp or wet in order to enable proper function of the device. To prevent this, clean your hands using a dry piece of cloth.
Touch screen device gets wet
If your device falls in water or any other liquid substance, you should immediately remove the power source (battery) from the device and then let it dry out before putting it back in the device. A good way to help this process is to put the phone, with the back removed, in a sealed container of dry, uncooked rice for a minimum of 48 hours.
Cracked/broken screen
Any damage done to the screen of a touch screen device will reduce the efficiency of the device. To prevent this, you should use a screen protector and also a good phone case that will help protect your phone screen from drops. As dirt can also cause scratches to your phone screen, it is advised that you clean your phone screen regularly. To fix a cracked or broken screen, your device should be taken to a screen repair service.
