"Look Up" Force Touch feature not working on my new MacBook Pro 14" on the software end.

Hello!


I just got a new macbook and I noticed this feature is not working at all on my end.

  • the Trackpad does respond with the proper haptic feedback for force touch
  • I have the feature turned on in the settings (see picture)
  • I did not come back from any back up, it's fresh factory software


Has anyone had this problem/know what I can do to fix it?

MacBook Pro Apple Silicon
