My 3d touch only activates with my whole finger not the tip of it. I need help fixing this!

I bought this phone from a friend and i notice that the 3d touch was weird and so i started looking into it and i couldn’t find anything online.

3D Touch is based on pressure sensitivity, which is probably why you have to press hard with your whole finger. See this article for information on adjusting that sensitivity: Change 3D Touch sensitivity on your iPhone - Apple Support


I did find this general article that has more technical information on 3D Touch (it's for application developers, so realize that it's not necessary information—it's just interesting): https://developer.apple.com/ios/3d-touch/
