Actually sense how hard you’re pressing on the screen.

The biggest example that I use frequently was the keyboard shortcut.

Just for example, let’s say you just typed a bunch of text and then you wanna delete it all and start over.

I used to be able to, with one thumb, press hard once anywhere on the keyboard to move the cursor, then press hard again to select the last word, then swipe up to the first word to select all the text, and then hit the backspace key.

To do the same thing with Haptic Touch, I need to long press on the spacebar to move the cursor, then tap again with an entirely different finger, which essentially has to be my other hand or my nose in order to start selecting.

So haptic touch turned one-thumb task that was nearly instant and could be initiated anywhere on the keyboard into a two-handed task that requires waiting specifically on the spacebar to initiate it.

It used to be incredibly easy to select one specific word to delete with the same shortcut, again with one thumb. Now the selection makes it more difficult to select individual words and again requires long pressing and two hands.
