Tap, Tap is an app that brings the double back tap from Google Pixel 6 with Android 12 to the rest of Android mobiles. The application has been completely redesigned to add new gestures, its interface was designed from scratch, and power consumption is also limited. Tap, Tap v1.0 is completely free.
With iOS 14 Apple released an accessibility gesture that allowed you to switch between apps and tasks on the iPhone: double tap the back of the phone. Google included it in Pixels with Android 12. And there’s a way to bring this launcher to other mobiles: the Tap, Tap app. The app’s developer has completely revamped it, giving it a new interface and improving its functions: it’s worth downloading.
Launch the camera, open an app…by double-tapping back
The double back tap gesture greatly improves multitasking because it it is not necessary to search for the shortcut to launch a specific application: double tap the back of the phone and it will open automatically. Tap, Tap does it very simply. And it has endless possibilities.
Kieron Quinn, the developer of Tap, Tap, redesigned his app from the ground up to create a new version which, despite retaining the key double-return feature, is completely different from the previous version. The interface is much neater, it has included new actions that trigger the gesture
With Tap, Tap, you can perform tasks such as:
- Open the camera at any time and without leaving the office.
- Launch any installed application.
- You can fake a keystroke in your phone’s quick settings.
- You have the option to restrict the situations where the back gesture will not work.
- Tap, Tap lets you configure actions for double tap and also for the triple back touch.
One of the limitations is that it is not available on the Google Play Store: **Tap, Tap v1.0 can only be downloaded in APK format** from the developer’s GitHub. The app is completely free, ad-free, and open source.
In case you want to extend the functionality of your mobile with a simple and quick to use gesture, our recommendation is that you take a look at Tap, Tap v1.0: it is a wonder. And it works the same way the Google Pixel 6 behaves with that same gesture, the double back tap.
