It doesn&#x27;t really require <i>that</i> much force. Subjectively, it feels to me like Peek requires less force than pushing the Home button, and Pop requires a bit more, but not significantly more.<p>Also, under Accessibility, there is a way to control the 3D Touch sensitivity, so it requires less (or more) force to activate.<p>That said, for people who use alternative input mechanisms (whether it be various forms of assistive touch, or just using VoiceOver), AFAIK they can&#x27;t 3D Touch (well, you can 3D Touch with VoiceOver, but only if you can see where to push; there&#x27;s no way to trigger 3D touch on the highlighted element if it&#x27;s not under your finger).
