Is your device new? It seems like developer options might be enabled.

Cannot, since swipe and touchscreen doesnt work. It just puts yellow box round the screenares where i touch for example the clock the it says digital clock widget then if i push area where u see swipe to unlock the phone says swipe to unlock. Then if i dont use the phone and screen goes off the phone says screen off. What is this?

So this is a new device? You can try a software repair to see if that helps:

You might have talkback enabled.Use two fingers to drag down the notification bar and double tap to select.Go to settings-accesibility and disable it.
