Microsoft has updated its OneDrive app for iOS with new 'Peek' and 'Pop' support for owners with 3D Touch-enabled devices.

The 7.1 update to the cloud storage app means iPhone 6s and 6s Plus users can now get instant previews of file and folder contents using a lighter press, while a deeper press 'pops' open the uploaded content.

Other changes to OneDrive include a new-look interface and a new feature that lets users shake their device to let Microsoft know if they are having issues with the service.

Last week, Microsoft began sending out email alerts to OneDrive users, warning holders of free 15GB accounts that their storage would be reduced to 5GB on August 10.

The 5GB limit has been in effect for new accounts for a while now, but Microsoft reneged on plans to force the reduction upon long-time subscribers, who were later given the option to keep their extra free space after widespread complaints.

OneDrive is available as a free download for iPhone and iPad on the App Store. [Direct Link]

3D Touch is over rated. I hardly if any time use it. It's slower or the same as opening an app.
Ever since it came out it has made it more troublesome to get the highlighted words to show copy/cut/paste pop up.

Well, pretty much the same thing on Apple music app if you use "peek" in file list.
I now doubt Apple deliberately limits the potential of 3D touch by "not providing enough potential features to developers".

Yeah, much harder than on iPhone 6 Plus. Hmm, if Apple allows user to force touch a word and pop up definition/copy this word/share this word, then that would be great.
In its current form? No. Maybe, the most obvious use for 3D touch is firing heavy weapon when playing Freeblade.
 
Unless Google implements it, who cares? It's why people rush to disable S-voice because it interferes with (and is inferior to) Google Now. Unless app developers are rushing to implement OEM only features (which they aren't).

How is that not the same problem for iOS? Peek and pop do nt work on iOS apps unless devs implement it and iOS devs are not rushing out to do that. Fragmentation.

To each their own. I use it a lot. Especially when going through lists of items quickly, my biggest use case is getting through my work email.

If it's causing problems and you never use it, it can be turned off:
