iPhone X "Swipe up" fatigue

[Ifti]

Swipw up and to the right, like you're making a half square and it will instantly open the multi-task, much quicker and easier than holding.

hmmm, I cant get this to work...
will see if I can find a video showing it!
Thanks dude!

EDIT: I get what you mean - like this : http://www.idownloadblog.com/2017/11/17/iphone-x-app-switcher-secret-gesture/

That opens the multitasking view - I don't like having to hold on an open app for a second in the multitasking view before you get the option to actually close it...

With any new motion, especially repetitive ones, I’m sure they’ll be some muscle fatigue if you don’t use that motion often. Kind of like when you switch to a new keyboard or a new mouse, it has that break in period to acclimate.

However since there’s no button resistance in actually swiping up like there is when you depress a button, I can’t see how you experiencing fatigue. Perhaps it’s just your hand being held up that’s making you fatigued.

I find the motion of swiping easier.

This is actually a great example, even though you meant it as a troll. There are good keyboards and there are bad ones. Bad ones have little key travel, feel mushy, and are generally unsatisfying. Good ones feel nice, have a good click, and make the experience more enjoyable. That's my point with the "swipe up" gesture. The lack of any kind of click or feedback, as compared to a button press, makes it simply unsatisfying. Apple went out of their way to use the taptic engine on home buttons in recent years for exactly this reason, and that is lost with the X.

I actually did not mean this as a troll. I use my phone all day (podcast, messages, audiobooks, social media, etc) and I have never thought, "man this swiping business is causing me fatigue." I meant it as come on, if this is what is a complaint about the phone then wow. I personally do not need a buzz or sound to let me know that I closed an app. My eyes tell me that.

They should just have made it swipe up and to the side to close an app - I dislike the red corners, but that's nitpicking, everything else about the gestures I like.
