Samsung A54 screen won't swipe

[Gill10]

Noticed my Samsung A54 screen doesn't seem to work anymore & I can't turn it off to see if that resets anything (pressed button & held for 8+ seconds numerous times but nothing happens).
Has anyone had this happen to them & if so, know how to fix it?

Swipe down from the top of the screen if you can and look at the bottom of the screen and you should have a power button symbol. Tap this and you should get a power off or restart option.

Otherwise, just let the battery run down.

If still no luck, contact Samsung for help Help & Contact | Samsung United Kingdom

Cheers, it let me swipe down & the power icon appears. However, I can't tap any of the 3 power options on screen. Even the 8 second hold on power button 'fix'  doesn't work.
...Good news, left it for 30 mins & tried the 8 second power button hold again & hey presto it turned off. Then on powering up the screen function has returned

That's good news @Gill10
