Not your fault. In the past it used force touch which allowed you to trigger it from anywhere on the keyboard (instead of the spacebar only). This made it far more powerful/flexible. Apple, in their infinite wisdom, removed it.
Source: an iPhone 6s in the family that was a joy for all the right reasons. My current SE 2020 is good, but the lack of force touch really sucks tbh. Do you know, for eg, you could open multitasking with force touch instead of the home button?
I miss Force Touch as well. I think they rebranded it to 3D Touch, to avoid the jokes.
Press and hold works for some stuff, but it’s slower. The press and hold to get to the lock screen switcher feels very slow, and inconsistently slow on top of that. Some days it seems to work, while others it seems to take forever.
