A glitch that has been occurring on the iPhone 5 appears to continue despite the latest iOS 6 update.
In September, iPhone 5 users have noticed that swiping diagonally can result in the screen to not respond. The iPhone 4S did not encounter this problem, but it appears to be occurrence on the fifth generation of the iPod Touch.
An update to the devices was issued - iOS 6.0.1 - but the glitch continues.
According to TheNextWeb, the issue appears to be in the hardware.
"Both of them use the brand new in-cell touch technology that combines the digitizer and touch panel and laminates them to the front glass. This is the first time years that the same exact screen has been in the newest iPod touch and newest iPhone at the same time, so it seems likely that whatever is causing the issues is due to the in-cell tech," reported Matthew Panzarino.
Apple has not commented on the matter.
