Have you gave it a good used to it? Or it’s like a NPC? I use it for Shazaming music and I couldn’t find a better use for it. Its good honestly.

No bueno. Made a shortcut to nudge volume up less than a normal volume up button press so that I could hit it with my eyes closed while in bed listening to music/podcast quietly and trying to sleep. I think apple added some proximity sensor thing so that if the phone is face down or in a pocket it won't trigger the action button. So half the time my shortcut assigned to the action button didn't even work and then I had to look at my phone in bed which is what I was trying to avoid in the first place.
