How to change 3D Touch Sensitivity in iOS 10: Uninstalling Apps Easily


Uninstalling an application from your iPhone was an easy task until the introduction of "3D Touch" property with iPhone 6s. Although 3D Touch property is very useful and practical, it appeared as a burden for iUsers when uninstalling applications from their phones. 

As most of iPhone users know that to uninstall an app, you need to be able to long press on the application icon. After the introduction of 3D Touch, your tap on the icon might also mean to iOS as a firm press instead of a long press. Then, instead of cross signs to uninstall the app, you will face with pop up option menu related with firm press.

What you should do is simply change the sensitivity of 3D Touch sensors located just below the screen.

Here is the steps for changing the sensitivity of 3D touch sensors:

1- Tap on "Settings" app.



2- Tap on "General".



3- Tap on "Accessibility".



4- Tap on "3D Touch".



5- Here, you can change the 3D TOUCH SENSITIVITY to "Light, Medium, Firm" options. If you encounter problem with uninstalling apps, then you should definitely increase the level from where currently it is.


If you don't want to use 3D Touch sensors anymore, you can easily switch off this property.



After switching off, the same screen will be displayed as follows: 





If you ask me, I definitely advise anyone to use 3D Touch property of your iPhone.

NOTE: This is tested on iOS 10.2.1
