Touch Screen Problem?

I have the same problem but in my case, I'm hoping it's only because of over-protection on my screen. I left that original screen protector on there, the one that was on the phone when it arrived, and then put the phone in an Otterbox Defender case that has its own permanent screen protector. I had done the same thing on my Note 4 and it didn't interfere with touch sensitivity on the bottom of the screen at all. Now, I can hardly type out a text message. Space bar and symbol/letter button, being on bottom, are especially unresponsive.
I noticed on Verizon forums that a lot of people were complaining about over-sensitivity on the S7 Edge screen and I found no suggestions about getting more if I wanted it - it's not on offer in Settings. My tap speed is set to 'short' in 'Accessibility.'
I'll try your code, Snakeyeskm. Is that a star, or asterisk symbol at the beginning that I'm supposed to type in first?

I'll remove the included screen protector and trust the one Otterbox gave me on its own, then. Decreasing the pointer speed never even occurred to me! I'd thought I was somehow getting more responsiveness by keeping it 'short.' Thanks!
