unresponsive screen
Touch yields nothing
A screen that fails to register touch input or react to user commands.
The term applies to touchscreens on phones, tablets, and other devices when tapping or swiping produces no result: I kept pressing the button but the unresponsive screen just sat there.
Causes range from software freezes to hardware damage to moisture on the display.
