3D Touch (functions and use)

[Bold9780_white]

Hi Guys,

Since the new iphone's primary selling point is 3D touch, just would like to know the existing and new features that comes with it. I am continuously learning new functions of the 3D touch day by day, hence would appreciate if you can share the other features not listed below so many people will know.

- Message preview
- Email preview
- Links preview
- Live pictures
- keyboard to trackpad
- multitasking
- New way to add contacts via phone app
- New way to send message / call via phone app

Appreciate if you know more functions on the 3D touch to fully maximize the same.

Thanks!

To be honest, I'm not really using 3D Touch. I guess I should start....LOL

When I had a Galaxy Note Edge, I kind of had to retrain myself to use the edge functions. I'm finding 3D touch to be the same. Just a matter of retraining the brain to make use of the shortcuts available.

I find myself frequently using the home screen shortcuts for Evernote. Peek into Calendar is another that I use several times a day
