The disappearance of 3D touch

iOS and iPadOS

Dear everyone, the 3d touch is no longer supported by the latest version of IPhone, but it can still be used in the 3D touch-supported device with identical function as the long press. Since the argument of the disappearance of 3D touch is rather heated in the sighted world, I would like to bring this topic into discussion. IN term of blind perspective. Do you think the lost of 3D touch is a regression? A little bit way of topic, since IPad receive slight heavy attention from Apple through new IPad OS, do you think it'll bring more benefit for person with visual-impaired people? Should I get the IPad mini one as I have already owned IPhone XS Max? Sincerely, Vireak.

I use and like 3d Touch. Maybe I don't use it in all app, but I will miss it..

I'm glad to see 3d touch gone. I never used it, except on apple watch, but never found a point on iOs.

I've had my iPhone 8 for 2 years and never used 3D Touch. I've not even explored what it could do, so I won't miss it. I suspect I'm not alone in my lack of interest in 3D Touch, hence Apple's decision to abandon it.

I didn't like having to press harder on the screen.

My problem was always the lack of consistency. My iPad couldn't do it but the phone could, not great for remembering it's there when I spend most of my time on the iPad. Now that it's the same on both I can actually put some time into remembering to use it, ☺️
