苹果(Apple)首先将压力感应触控技术Force Touch引入(Force Touch)Apple Watch。但在Android(Android)手机制造商华为(Huawei)在其新智能手机中发布此功能后不久, Apple就在 iPhone 上发布并普及了其使用,首先是 iPhone 6s。
Apple将这种多点触控功能称为 3D Touch。这增加了一种打开 iPhone 用户最常访问的步骤或功能的创新方式。通过推动 iPhone 屏幕并按住压力来使用 3D Touch 。这会暴露被按下的应用程序中可用的任何快捷方式。
例如,3D Touch最为人所知的是应用功能的快捷方式。尝试为Twitter iOS 应用程序使用 3D Touch——可以快速发推文、DM(直接消息)或搜索。
鲜为人知(Less)的是它在 iOS控制中心(Control Center)中的价值,尤其是用户自定义控制中心控件(customize Control Center controls)的能力。然后让我们探索如何以这种方式使用一些很酷的快捷方式。
蜂窝数据上的 3D Touch(3D Touch on Cellular Data)
控制中心(Control Center)的内置快捷方式之一可以打开或关闭蜂窝数据(Cellular Data)。您会在控制中心(Control Center)的左上方面板中找到此控件以及蓝牙(Bluetooth)、Wifi和飞行(Airplane)模式。
当您在蜂窝数据图标上进行 3D (Cellular Data)Touch(按住)时,您会看到以下内容:
值得注意的是,您可以通过 3D 触摸该组中的四个图标中的任何一个来获得相同的扩展菜单。让我们更详细地讨论这两个新选项。
空投快捷方式(AirDrop Shortcut)
AirDrop是 Apple 设备用户可以将文件无线传输到附近的OS X和 iOS 设备的方式。可以在多种收款方式中进行选择,包括 只收给(Receiving Off)所有人的( Everyone)联系人( Contacts Only)。但是,如果将接收模式设置为“所有人”(Everyone)以接收附近已知人员的文件,则该设置将一直保留,直到手动更改为止。
可悲的是,如本文(article)所述,此设置可以邀请陌生人利用它。因此,即时使用此AirDrop快捷方式可快速更改回仅限联系人(Contacts Only),或关闭接收。
个人热点快捷方式(Personal Hotspot Shortcut)
个人热点(Hotspot)是一种蜂窝设置,可让您使用 iPhone 蜂窝数据连接创建WiFi热点。(WiFi)这将允许您将笔记本电脑和其他设备连接到该网络以实现Internet连接。您的手机公司必须启用此功能,但现在所有主要公司都支持它。
尽管它会消耗您的蜂窝数据并取决于您的蜂窝网络速度,但在您拥有 LTE 的任何地方为您的设备添加Internet连接是一个很好的生产力增强剂。此外,仅使用您的 iPhone 为朋友和商业伙伴增加连接势必会增加您的知名度。
无论如何,使用此快捷方式快速打开(可发现(Discoverable))或关闭(不可发现(Not Discoverable))此热点。
请注意,要让人们加入,iOS 需要为这些个人热点使用密码。您必须前往设置(Settings)-个人热点(Personal Hotspot)- Wi-Fi 密码(Wi-Fi Password)。
录屏快捷方式(Screen Record Shortcut)
正如我们在上一篇文章中所解释的那样,可以将屏幕录制控件添加到控制中心(Control Center)。屏幕录制(Recording)进入控制中心(Control Center)面板后,在图标上使用 3D 触摸,瞧!
- 选择录制的目的地。
- 不久前,人们只能将屏幕录制保存到 iPhone 相机胶卷中。但是,现在可以直接从屏幕记录向Facebook Live广播,甚至My Verizon iOS 应用程序也希望我将屏幕广播到其诊断(Diagnostics)功能!请注意,如果目的地是相机胶卷,则快捷方式显示Start Recording,如果是 Facebook,则显示Start Broadcasting 。
- 您想在录制 iPhone 屏幕时说话吗?此按钮打开麦克风以在录制屏幕时启用音频。
请注意,此处列出的应用程序列表将取决于您 iPhone 上当前安装的应用程序。由于我安装了Facebook和My Verizon,这两个应用程序就会出现。不幸的是,我无法在网上找到所有使用 iOS 屏幕录制功能的应用程序的明确列表。
笔记快捷方式(Notes Shortcut)
控制中心(Control Center)的另一个有用的附加组件是Notes控件。主快捷方式会打开一个新笔记,但如果您经常使用笔记(Notes)中的清单功能,那么 3D 触摸控制中心中的(Control Center)笔记(Notes)图标将创建一个带有清单的新笔记!
此外,您也可以使用照片或草图开始新笔记。控制中心(Control Center)中的这些 3D Touch 快捷方式非常节省时间。尽管 3D 触摸最有用,但有时也会导致问题。如果您因为 3D Touch 而无法删除应用程序,(can’t delete apps because of 3D Touch)请阅读我的帖子。如果您有任何问题或建议,请在评论中告诉我们!享受!
iOS Shortcuts: Using 3D Touch in Control Center
Apple first brought Force Touch, a pressure-sensitivе touch technology, to the Apple Watch. But soon after Android phone maker Huawei released this feature in its new ѕmartphоnes, Applе released and popularized its use on iPhone, first with the іPhone 6s.
Apple calls this multi-touch capability 3D Touch. This adds an innovative way to open iPhone users’ most often accessed steps or functions. Use 3D Touch by pushing on the iPhone screen and holding the pressure. This exposes whatever shortcuts are available in the app being pressed.
For example, 3D Touch is best known as a shortcut to app functions. Try using 3D Touch for the Twitter iOS app – one can quickly tweet, DM (direct message), or search.
Less well known is its value in the iOS Control Center, especially with the user’s ability to customize Control Center controls. Let’s then explore how to use some cool shortcuts this way.
3D Touch on Cellular Data
One of the built-in shortcuts in Control Center turns Cellular Data on or off. You’ll find this control in the top left panel of the Control Center along with Bluetooth, Wifi, and Airplane mode.
When you 3D Touch (press and hold) on the Cellular Data icon, here’s what you see:
It’s worth noting that you can get this same expanded menu by 3D touching any of the four icons in this group. Let’s talk in more detail about the two new options.
AirDrop Shortcut
AirDrop is how Apple device users can wirelessly transfer files to close-by OS X and iOS devices. One can choose among several receipt modes, including Receiving Off to Contacts Only to Everyone. But if one sets the receipt mode to Everyone to receive a file from a known person close by, that setting remains until manually changed.
Sadly, this setting can invite strangers to take advantage of it, as described in this article. So use this AirDrop shortcut on the fly to quickly change back to Contacts Only, or Receiving Off.
Personal Hotspot Shortcut
Personal Hotspot is a cellular setting that lets you create a WiFi hotspot using your iPhone cellular data connection. This will let you connect laptops and other devices to this network for Internet connectivity. This feature must be enabled by your cellular company, but all the major companies now support it.
Even though it eats up your cellular data and depends on your cellular network speed, adding Internet connectivity to your devices anywhere you have LTE is a great productivity enhancer. Plus, just using your iPhone to add connectivity for friends and business associates is bound to increase your popularity.
Anyway, use this shortcut to quickly turn this hotspot On (Discoverable) or Off (Not Discoverable).
Note that for people to join, iOS requires the use of a password for these personal hotspots. You must go to Settings – Personal Hotspot – Wi-Fi Password.
Screen Record Shortcut
One can add the screen recording control to Control Center, as we explained in the previous post linked to above. Once Screen Recording is in your Control Center panel, use 3D touch on the icon, and voila!
- Choose a destination for the recording.
- Not long ago, one could save a screen recording only to the iPhone camera roll. However, now one can broadcast to Facebook Live directly from the screen record, and even the My Verizon iOS app wants me to broadcast the screen to its Diagnostics feature! Note that the shortcut says Start Recording if destination is the camera roll, but Start Broadcasting, if to Facebook.
- Do you want to speak while recording your iPhone screen? This button turns on the microphone to enable audio while recording the screen.
Note that the list of apps listed here will depend on what is currently installed on your iPhone. Since I have Facebook and My Verizon installed, those two apps show up. Unfortunately, I couldn’t find a definitive list online of all apps that work with the screen recording feature in iOS.
Notes Shortcut
Another useful add-on to Control Center is the Notes control. The main shortcut will open a new note, but if you often use the checklist feature in Notes, then 3D touching the Notes icon in Control Center will create a new note with a checklist!
In addition, you can start a new note with a photo or with a sketch too. These 3D Touch shortcuts in the Control Center are great timesavers. Even though 3D touch is mostly useful, it can sometimes cause problems. Read my post on what to do if you can’t delete apps because of 3D Touch.
