I think the biggest reason that 3D Touch will take some years to get adopted by the users is, that it's not visible whether or not there are any 3D Touch actions available. It's simply not intuitive as of now, until apps get updated to take advantage of it.
Sure, I can preview a link in Safari or Mail, but what about when someone posts a link on Facebook or Messenger, I can't deep press on it to preview that link. So right now, everything is pretty fragmented. Do I want to try to deep press on something to see if it supports it? If not, I have to lift the finger and just tap it again.
Until everything supports it, I just won't find it natural. Right now it's pretty much hit or miss.

- arrrg 11y agoApple blankets the world with ads. Apple has recognition. The iPhone is relatively focused in its additions and it's not like they added a million different things, all of which they have to tell you about. There is only one iPhone and not millions different models with different features. Unlike many Android device manufacturers (except maybe Samsung if they were to focus for once and not be so overwhelmingly complex in all the stuff they put into their phones) Apple is in a unique position to actually teach people about this through marketing. And they will. They will teach people about it, devs will be on board real quick and it will just become a natural interaction. That's my prediction.
