Haptic feedback is weak on MacBook Pro 2018.

While debugging the application on MacBook Pro 2018 (#23), there are reports that haptic feedback is weaker on MacBook Pro 2018. Need to investigate how it’s weak and what solutions can be taken.

Today, I had a chance to try MacBook Pro 2018 (15 inches) and confirmed that current strong haptic feedback format is the same one that track pad is using for tap and the most strongest one that Apple defined for it.

To make it much stronger, I think it requires some insights about their multitouch private API and use custom haptic format.

The haptic feedback is very weak on the 2020 13" MacBook Pro as well. In particular, it is much weaker than the "Haptic Touch Bar" tool, even on the Strong setting.

I tried this app and receive imperceptible Haptic feedback on a Macbook Pro 16" 2019. Happy to help debug this if you need logs/etc. (OS version is up-to-date Catalina with HapticKey 0.5.0)
