Problems while touching the screen with iOS 8.3 on iPhone 6

Hi Its Carlos,
I seem to be having problems with my I phone 6 screen or maybe its voice over.
Some times I swipe left or right on an app screen or in the app swicher and I get the bong sound like it went to the end of the open apps list,
but when I touch the bottom of the screen and swipe left or right it shows more apps and goes back in to focus.
Also I was in the settings of the phone and I touched the screen and it started telling names of apps on my home screen.
its like it loses focus of where my finger is touching.
I've had to phone exchanged because of this but I'm thinking it might be an version 8.3 problem.
Also the other day voice over studdered while say names of apps on the home screen.
Some times I touch on the bottom of the screen and it tells me whats on the top like the battery setting ant how many bars are on the phone and that's T-Mobile.
Well any thoughts.Thanks
Carlos

Hi. I've had some of these issues and meant to post something here. I don't have the voice over sounds enabled so I'm not sure what they are doing but I've certainly found that in quite a lot of apps I'm having to explore by touch rather than swiping as when I swipe it will just refuse to go past a certain point even though I know I'm not at the bottom of the screen. I've also had times when my mobile signal strength is read while swiping through an app. This has all started since IOS 8.3 but I did question if it was a screen issue. But as I don't have any problems on some apps or the home screen I think it's software related. I tried a restore and that didn't fix it. Anyone else suffering with this or similar?

This has also happened to me. Rather odd. NOt sure what it is though.

That's actually normal, because that's where the slider bar is. On the very bottom of the screen is where the control center slider bar is. HTH!
