Haptic Touch is multitouch made multifunctional. With it, you can long-press to launch actions instead of apps, reply to notifications, preview messages and links, switch keyboards, switch apps, animate Live Photos, and more. It's like a wormhole through iOS that lets you do more without having to do more.


Haptic touch replaces 3D Touch in iOS 13 and the iPhone 11, iPhone 11 Pro, and iPhone 11 Pro Max. Most of the functions are the same, but how you get to those functions is slightly different. You no longer "deep press" or "hard press" to trigger an action. Instead, place your finger on what you want to get more info or perform a new action and rest it there for two seconds. Then, tap the action you want to use.


So might not work ok on your iPhone 6s
