The 3D Touch display in the iPhone 6s is a great innovation that opens the door to new possibilities for controlling your smartphone, often faster and more efficiently. However, for now, we are quite limited in the possibilities of where we can use 3D Touch and it is only on Applu what new features for 3D Touch will be added in the future, since even developers cannot offer more in their applications than we already know directly from the system. When there was only speculation about the 3D Touch display during the year, a demonstration of how the new feature could work on the iPhone 6s and where exactly we would all welcome its implementation appeared.
Of course, this was the Control Center, which can be called up by swiping up from the bottom of the screen, bringing up a panel where you can toggle Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and more. By pressing harder on the corresponding icon, a redirection could take place directly to the settings of the given function, where we could, for example, choose a specific Wi-Fi network, which would often make it easier for us to go through the lengthy Settings application. Unfortunately, we did not get to see this shortcut and overall the 3D Touch display is not used at all in the control settings.
New video from ConceptsiPhone shows us how the 3D Touch features in the Control Center could work. In the video below, you can see that after pressing the Wi-Fi icon harder, a menu of the most used or nearest networks will appear, which you can immediately connect to or select "Next" which would redirect you directly to Settings. The same would be true for Bluetooth.
Maybe it's only a matter of time before Apple implements a really similar or perhaps exactly the same function that will use 3D Touch in the control center. It would definitely be welcomed by more than one user.
From the user's perspective, the entire 3D touch can be replaced with a longer press. I don't see any great innovation in that. I'm more disappointed that the context menu is on iOS so little used. You really don't need 3D touch for that. I remember the old one Windows Mobile, which used the context menu, similar to the desktop.
I expected that the pressing effect would be similar to the touchpad on the MackBook. Here it feels like a better pickup bike, but I don't have the feeling of a slump there. I don't consider this a haptic response.
