Q: 3D Touch problem - iOS 9.2

Hello ANdiesel,

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities. 

I see that you are having difficulties in getting the 3D Touch to work as you expect it. I understand the disappointment when a new feature that you want to use is not working correctly. To make sure that you are not expecting something different from what 3D Touch is designed to do, I would first suggest reviewing the following link: 

iPhone User Guide - 3D Touch

You can then use the following article to sort out what might be going on and get it corrected:

If the screen on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch doesn‘t respond to touch

Best Regards.
