I am having trouble conceptualizing this too.  I have my mail app set the exact 
same way, so I don’t get it.  I listened to the applevis podcast about it 
today, and I sort of understand how you are supposed to use it, but it didn’t 
seem like something to get excited about, unless I’m really missing something 
big.  True, you could sned a new tweet in tweetings without having to go into 
the app, but usually, when I tweet, it’s when I’m thinking of checking my 
twitter anyway so I would go into the app anyway.

I'm having trouble conceptualizing how the 3D touch thing is supposed to work 
even for the sighted world. When Tim Cook demonstrated it on Stephen colbert 
the other night, the email app was the one he used. It sounded as if he was 
looking at an abbreviated list of messages and by pressing down slightly on the 
one of interest, he could peek at a summary of that message. If he was 
interested in reading the whole thing, he could press down further to pop the 
entire message open. 

 

I realize the concept will no doubt expend as users put their collective brains 
to this technology but as far as the current email app goes, I'm not getting 
how it would benefit VoiceOver users. I currently have my mail app set up to 
read me five lines of each message so that gives me an audible peek at each 
one. Double tapping on the message to pop it open in order to read the whole 
thing really doesn't take a lot of additional time. 

 

As I said, I'm sure I'm missing a lot of how this new technology works and 
hopefully VoiceOver users will be able to get some benefit from it.

I listened to it. I am starting to get it a bit. You double tap and hold for 
feedback then press either softly or hard. Sometimes it tries to move the icon.

Jonathan does demonstrate it with an email, but I guess at this point nobody 
has more than 12 hours or so of experience and everybody is sort of in the same 
boat with respect to experimenting. I won’t get my 6S for another week or 2 and 
by then you guys probably have figured it all out.

My understanding is you simply push down. Touch the email you want to peek at, 
then just push your finger against the screen until you feel a quick bit of 
feedback. You can then push harder to open it, if you want to.

How do you use 3d touch on an iphone 6s with Voiceover? Double tapping harder 
or softer in email does not appear to do it.
