I worked in the telecommunications industry for 11 years. When heat sensor touch screens first came out there actually were people who had colder fingertips and the sensors would not pick up their touch. I'm not sure if the iPhone is a heat sensor though. |

| skittle hive Because humans are like that User ID: 17792058 06/15/2012 07:14 AM ![]() Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Do they make a stylus for it that it will accept since your fingers won't work? Like maybe this one? (I don't know what version you have). [link to www.amazon.co.uk] Last Edited by The Loophole on 06/15/2012 07:15 AM |

| Bowyn Aerrow User ID: 22229335 09/21/2012 10:12 PM ![]() Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I have the same issue. Try dampening your finger tips. These screens work on conductivity, meaning that electrical circuit is made through the contact of your finger. If you are prone to dry skin (no to little skin oil) you will have more problems with these type of circuits. If you have oil in your hair, try wiping your fingertips through your hair then use the phone. it may raise your conductivity enough for it to register on the phone.

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 22108335 12/24/2012 04:31 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The reason I'm here is cuz I just googled "my fingers don't work on touchscreens" ...I've got the same issue. I think mine is due to the fact that I bite the skin in my finger tips and have been doing so since I was very young and in turn the tips of my fingers are extremely rough and bearly have any finger prints left. I'm not saying they completely don't work, but much more often that others. Sometimes I just gotta press a certain way and its annoying. I wrote this on my iphone with a few re-clicks (touches?) |
