Hello everyone!

My iphone's been cracked for a couple of months now, but it's just recently acquired a problem that has affected its use. It kind of spazzes and clicks on random apps, and I was wondering if there was any way to fix the problem. Could this be fixed with screen replacement or would I need a completely different phone?

Thank you!

As someone who's replaced hundreds of these screens (literally) it just sounds like a new screen would do the trick. The screen that legitimate companies will use are everything you need (digitizer; what makes the phone recognize touch movements and is probably the cause of random apps opening. And the LCD; just shows the image). Just be careful as to who you let fix as I've seen multiple cases where a friend of a customer attempts the repair and messes something else.
