What 3D touch features you use more often?

[MrInquestador]

1. Keyboard (spacebar) to control cursor
2. Force touching the leftmost side of the screen to swith app

These features make my 6 Plus feel obsolete/outdated.

 

[The Game 161]

I use it the most on email

Use it on one football app a lot

 

[IphoneIssues]

I use peek and pop pretty often.

I've known you could use some kind of control cursor, but I don't know how it's done, and I haven't bothered to find out.

Didn't know that thing was called Force Touch until I came in here.

Edit: A few hours after the message above, I decided to look up the cursor. Holy crap, that's useful. When I heard something about a "cursor", I was expecting something else.

Safari, messages, email, photos, camera, pretty much every app that has it.

It's a great shortcut and addicting to use once you get used to it.

Peek and pop imessages of women so it says unread still. Saves me a headache.

I know how you feel. I always forget to reply to them & then you know what happens.

Peeking on links is so usefull, like on whatsapp/mails and stuff. I miss it so much when I try to use it but apps havn't updated it yet...

 

[jpadhiyar]

I use it the most on keyboard and also use peek and pop.

I can't believe I never knew about this! Just tested it out and love it. Going to save me so much time. Thank you!

Gee! How many girls are you dating? Lol

Same here hardly ever use the 3D touch but this one thing to move the cursor hit it out of the park for me.

 

[Pathfinder3]

Food shot on Hipstamatic. And that's it! Haha

 

[Conan86]

Bringing up the shortcut from phone to call a favorite contact

 

[eyeseeyou]

Mostly peek on links.

In tweetbot peek on Twitter threads.

Slowly using it on email previews

One things for sure the people who say it's the same thing as long press are way off at when comparing to the jailbreak version. Could just be the lack of haptic vibration when it pops.

 

[bembol]

I would say my Bookmarks in Safari, followed by Messages.

 

[tranceking26]

I mainly use it for:

1) moving the cursor
2) shortcut to my friend on the messages app icon
3) peek

 

[skiltrip]

Keyboard cursor is my #1. I also dog the shortcuts on a lot of the app icons. I have to remember to use it though.

The app switcher gesture is a little awkward and I usually prefer double clicking the home button still.

Still keep forgetting it exists, but now you made me think about it I have seen that this forum supports 3D press to quote or reply on any post.

That's more of a long press that exists without 3D Touch as well.

 

[The Game 161]

email very useful for that so I know if it's worth deleting or not

 

[nordique]

Multitask switcher the most

 

[Jaggrey]

I was most excited about the multitask switcher when it was announced, but now that I have the phone I can never get it to work consistently.

 

[Bbqthis]

Peak and pop (email and Instagram) and the keyboard trackpad are serious game changers for me. Everything else is just icing. Sweet, sweet icing.

I think you can just turn read receipts off in settings, too. Still a cool feature if you want some to know you have read their message, but not others.
