Hi all,
I love the pressure sensitive home button feature on the s8 and note 8. I have a few questions about this. First, is the entire bottom part of the nav bar pressure sensitive or only under the home button on the nav bar. My second question is about the vibration motor. Does it have 2 vibration motors (one for haptic feedback for the pressure sensitive display) and one for phone calls, alarms, notifications etc. or only one vibration motor. My second question is if the pressure sensitive display has its own API that can be used in developing apps exclusive to the s8 that takes advantage of it and can this pressure sensitive home button still be used on a custom aosp rom. Also does the pressure sensitive display trigger the vibration motor once or is it gradual, like the strength of the vibration motor increases as you put more pressure on the home button. I also discovered that there's this app called force touch by a creative developer named Michele Lacorte, and this app shows a number which displays a real-time number of the amount of pressure you put on your screen. This app works on my Moto G5 Plus and I know that it's possible to change the strength of the vibration motor on Android, so is it possible to make app that either uses the accessibility and the drawing over apps permission or root access to make an app which has similar functionality to the s8 or note 8 pressure sensitive home button. Thanks
