the previous generation of iPhone surprised us the increased size of the display, and have announced yesterday iPhone 6s and 6s Plus such a feature is the killer 3D Touch. it exclusive technologyAllowing new iPhone screens to identify pressing force. It completely changed the way of interaction c iOS and brought ease of use to a whole new level.
3D Touch technology - an evolution of Multi Touch, familiar gestures such as tap, swipe, pinch. Now to the familiar methods of interaction will be added two new features: Peek and Pop. Since all of these touch is very difficult to get confused, Apple came up with tactile feedback, which will not only see but also feel the effect of your actions.
Why do we need these new features and what they can be doing? Let's investigate. Peek is activated by a light touch on the screen and displays a preview of a content. If, without lifting your finger from the screen, push harder, work Pop function, which will open the selected item.
In fact, this is a very cool chips that great simplifies the interaction with applications. For example, thanks to the 3D Touch you can quickly view a short letter to the Mail and immediately open them, if they do not fit on one screen.
Similarly, you can view the links that you sent to friends, without even leaving the messenger. Want to see how well you are out in the photo? Please - click the thumbnail of the last picture, and it will be shown a preview. If you press a little harder to open the normal interface "Photo", allowing you to edit a photo or add it to your favorites.
All standard Apple applications support Peek and Pop features: "Notes" Mail Address "Maps", "Calendar". Work with them on the iPhone 6s and 6s Plus with 3D Touch-screen will be much more convenient and faster than on the iPhone with conventional displays.
But that's not all! The Peek mode there are additional steps. If you are viewing a web page, it can whisk up to open in a new tab or send to your reading list. Just as easily, you can sort your emails by scanning them using Peek function: to delete the message, swipe it to the right and to mark it as unread, - to the left.
Another convenient feature that appeared thanks to 3D Touch-display, is a function of "quick action". This is such an analogy right click in OS X. Right from your desktop, you can get quick access to the main functions of applications by simply clicking on the appropriate icon.
For example, to add a new contact, you need only press the icon "Phone". And if you click on the profile photo of your friend in any application, you can send a message or call. Through the camera icon in the One-Touch made Self, and the icon "Map" will show you the route home, or put a mark on the map.
3D Touch amazing works with iOS 9, so that there, they just made for each other! Do you want to select a piece of text? Click on the keyboard, and it turns into a trackpad! You need to switch to another application? Just click on the left side of the screen and select the desired. Do you want to draw a sketch in the "Notes" lines of different thicknesses? You know what to do!
We can already say that these types of interaction will become in the future, the de facto standard. So far it only works on the iPhone 6s and 6s Plus, but after a couple of years previous models come out of the household, and on all the iPhone will display a 3D Touch. Following Apple pulled a third-party application developers, and iOS will be amazingly simple and convenient operating system. We are waiting for a bright future!
