Adjust Touch Duration for Haptic Touch on the iPhone and iPad

You can adjust the length of time necessary for a touch-and-hold action to activate. That might be a welcome customization for many people.

Yup. Glad you’ve found it. I find the shortest time to be perfectly adequate for me, and it’s probably doing my wrist some good as well as I tend to exert far too much pressure when holding (I know, it’s obviously unnecessary, but such is the metaphor of the hold gesture that I tend to, anyway).

I never had a problem with this. It is side swipe that drives me nuts. It is too easy to accidentally sideswipe while scrolling on many apps and end up loosing what you were looking at. I wish I could extend the time for that needed.
