My iPhone doesn't work with my left thumb anymore

[Rakehellion]

I can use my right thumb just fine, but with my left at the same angle on the same part of the screen with no other fingers in the way, it doesn't work.

Was my hand cut off and replaced with a cybernetic implant? How is this even possible?

Was it cold in your house? Maybe your digit shrunk?

No lefties aloud. Southpaw's are different, can't be having that.

Callous.

Capacitive touchscreens are shit.

It's Personal.

You didn't microwave it did you?

I hope not unless he updated.

I have the same issue on my S4. My left thumb is mostly scar tissue where I sawed the side of it off years back.

My 5s had stopped reading one of my fingers consistently and it got worse over time. Deleted that one and re-learned it. Worked fine after that and never happened again.

Lamest excuse for "needing" th get the new iphone 6 yet.

 

[Ichinisan]

When you go to delete the fingerprint data for that finger, you can tell which entry corresponds to that finger by touching the sensor with each finger to see which entries get highlighted. You should then add a descriptive label to each one ("right thumb," "left pointer," etc.).

Turns out it's happening with my entire left hand abd not just the thumb. Is this weird at all?

That's very weird. Do iPhones have any touch sensitivity settings in the OS?

Your phone may have been manufactured during a full moon.

OP cuts useless thumb off. Problem solved!

I'd be more worried about my hand than my phone in that situation.

Mine doesn't work well upside down, either - like if you hand it to someone sitting across from you, and then lean over to push a button or swipe a picture or whatever. It seems pretty angle-sensitive.

This was happening in a single app on Saturday with my new iP6. It went away after a restart.
