I've long held, without any real concrete evidence, that Apple puts its best and most powerful iOS UI behind modern hardware/device capabilities as a ploy to coerce sales of newer devices. So much stuff is hiding behind Force Touch, which is a relatively recent hardware upgrade to their device fleet.
- theWatcher37 9y agoI can't stand force touch, and hate the apple compromised on the design to implement it. 2 years later and it's completely frigging useless, nobody's been able to demonstrate a useful feature for it and outside of techy Internet forums I've yet to meet anyone who uses it on their phone. Every time I ask ~50% of people have it turned off because the incredibly laggy, counter-intuitive, and downright annoying "actions" were bothering them so they turned it off in settings. Force touch belongs in the dust bin of history with wood grain UI and horizontal sliders on horizontal swipe interfaces.
