Home Screen movement

I’m so frustrated! If I touch the screen in a spot where there is no app, it dances like it does when I want to change where apps show up! I’ve tried haptics and touch duration and it doesn’t help! How can we easily make it take longer to do this!!???

Feedback on Home Page Swipe Experience in iPadOS 18 I noticed a change in the home page swipe behavior on iPadOS 18 compared to iPadOS 17, particularly when using an iPad. In iPadOS 17, swiping from the side of the screen with a certain distance and velocity would smoothly transition to the next page of the home screen icons. However, in iPadOS 18, performing the same swipe motion doesn’t seem to effectively trigger the page transition. It feels like I need either more force or a longer swipe to achieve the same outcome, which makes navigation less intuitive and a bit frustrating. I’m curious: Is this change intentional as part of the new gesture adjustments in iPadOS 18, or could this be an unintended usability issue? Has anyone else experienced similar difficulties in navigating between home pages on iPadOS 18?

Why is my iPhone 12 swipe up motion not smooth? I just logged into an iPhone 12 and the swipe up motion to go to the Home Screen or your open apps is more of a haptic, less smooth motion. It isn’t the normal motion. I have checked if I have reduce motion on but it isn’t. [Re-Titled by Moderator]

Swiping up from Home Screen to get to apps but all is burry When I swipe up from my Home Screen the screen goes blurred so I can’t tap on apps. I can vaguely see them in background

Go to Settings > Accessibility > Touch, then tap Haptic Touch or 3D & Haptic Touch. Choose the touch duration—Fast or Slow. On an iPhone with 3D Touch, you can also choose the pressure needed—Light, Medium, or Firm. Test the new setting on the image at the bottom of the screen.
