Hello,

I have a critical bug with incoming calls on my iPhone 14 Pro Max on iOS 27 (27.1, 27.2, 27.2.1).

This did not happen on iOS 26.

Steps to reproduce:

1. iPhone is in a pocket.

2. Incoming call arrives.

3. I take the phone out. The screen lights up, but the "Slide to Answer" slider is completely frozen.

Workaround:

The screen unfreezes only after I firmly swipe my finger over the Dynamic Island (proximity sensor). After this, the slider works.

Details:

- I do NOT use any screen protector or glass.

- The issue NEVER happens if the phone is on a table or in hand. It only occurs when removing it from a pocket.

Does anyone else experience this Pocket Mode bug on iOS 27?

Long shot but try Setting, Accessibility, Touch, Prefer single touch Actions, then see if it works with just a tap, not a slide.

If it works then it is only a workaround and does not address the problem which could be a screen fault.
