Apple's 3D Touch is a valuable tool for applications and developers. However, a notable omission is the direct access to an app's specific settings via 3D Touch. Currently, options like "Remove App," "Share App," and "Edit Home Screen" are available, but integrating a shortcut to the settings would optimize the user experience.

Currently navigating to an app's settings requires users to open the Settings app, scroll to locate the app (a task given the average user has around 80 apps installed, potentially even more in the US), and then access its settings. This process involves at least five steps compared to the one or two steps a direct shortcut would offer.

Another beneficial addition would be the ability to use 3D Touch on an app's notification to quickly access its settings, particularly to manage push notifications. Providing easier access to app settings could also encourage developers and businesses to adopt more user-friendly practices, knowing that users have the ability to quickly adjust permissions and settings. This feature could influence the ecosystem to be considerate of spam notifications.
