Apple released 3D Touch last year on the iPhone 6S and 6S Plus. It’s also available on the iPhone 7, of course. We’ve shown you a lot of the cool things it can do, but many of its best features aren’t so obvious.

For example, if you have a bunch of apps saved in a folder, you can use 3D touch to press on the icon and you’ll get a window that lists which apps have notifications. If you tap on the app, it will launch. It’s much easier than opening the folder and scrolling through it to see if you have any notifications.
