With a whole lot of fanfare, Apple in 2015 introduced 3D Touch to the world and positioned it as one of the flagship features of the iPhone 6s. Years in the making, 3D Touch was supposed to change the way we used our smartphones by completely adding a completely new and intuitive method of UI interaction.
Nearly four years after its introduction, however, it's fair to say that 3D Touch never quite managed to live up to the hype that accompanied its unveiling. While the feature -- which presented users with a variety of contextual options based on the amount of pressure applied to the display -- was technologically impressive, it was not readily discoverable or even available on all iOS devices. In light of that, we're now seeing reports that Apple with iOS 13 has effectively axed the feature altogether in favor of a long press alternative.
