The app works good but it's killing my battery life, is there a way to fix the issue?
[Android Apps and Games] Quinny899:
This is covered in the app.

Battery and Optimisation

Port of the double tap on back of device feature from Android 12 to any Android 7.0+ device - KieronQuinn/TapTap

github.com
[Android Apps and Games] lopbox:
First of all i had tried the 0.10.1-Beta which worked but not all the time, then i upgraded to taptap-1.0.1 which doesn't work with android 11 realme ui 2 on Realme X2 Pro 12/256 as it seems. I then tried to uninstall and install the 0.10.1 which does work but it distrorts the readings of the accelerometer and gyro for my live wallpaper (doodle) until the wallpaper crashes and loads the static underneath. I never actually used the tap tap app really because it was broken most of the time, and this reply is meant just as feedback to the developer.
[Android Apps and Games] Quinny899:
Could you try disabling the "Tensor Low Power Mode" option in the advanced settings (in 1.1) and rebooting please? On GitHub there's at least one case of this fixing the issue on 1.0.x. As for the wallpaper, there's nothing I can do about that - Tap, Tap needs the sensor readings.
[Android Apps and Games] lopbox:
It worked by disabling the Tensor Low power mode, i never know tap tap uses the sensor readings, i just noted that it messes up what the live wallpaper reads. Just a note, thank you for replying so fast
[Android Apps and Games] Quinny899:
Thanks. I think I'll disable the low power mode by default, it's causing more problems than it solves.
[Android Apps and Games] Quinny899:
Version 1.2 released:

Download in first post or on GitHub as usual
[Android Apps and Games] McLovin01:
The app keeps getting closed in the background despite it being running 100% of the time as per the screenshot.

also weird thing is it doesn't get back to working just by launching the app in the foreground, i have to toggle the "enable tap tap" switch

I know Huawei is nasty in its aggressive battery saving behavior, but what's in the screenshot is what confuses me
[Android Apps and Games] Quinny899:
There's nothing I can do. OEMs do stupid things in the name of "saving battery". All I can suggest is that you enable the automatic service restart in the advanced settings which will essentially do the toggle off/on for you every hour.
[Android Apps and Games] Redstar6486:
For some reason the app thinks I own a Pixel that supports Quick Tap and asks me to disable it first and there is no way to bypass this! Even though I don't have Pixel. I'm using a custom ROM (Evolution X) and it doesn't have that quick tap feature. It used to be fine before, but I just did a clean flash of new update and now I get this warning. tried older version of the app too, but no luck. Is there anyway to make it work?
[Android Apps and Games] Quinny899:
Run

adb shell settings put secure columbus_enabled 0

Or the same without adb shell in a root terminal. Looks like your ROM is enabling that setting by default for some reason. You shouldn't need to reboot after, but probably best to just in case.
[Android Apps and Games] Redstar6486:
Thank you very much. That fixed it.
[Android Apps and Games] jobips:
Is there a way to keep the app open in the background without the notification?
[Android Apps and Games] Quinny899:
No, just hide the notification if you don't want it there.
[Android Apps and Games] thepersona:
I just got my brand new s22 ultra and I remember in the past I was able to use this app for double tap and triple tap both of them were able to access voice access and select to speak. I had it set where double tap was select to speak and triple tap was voice access.

There was even an option to adjust the sensitivity of the taps for double tap and triple tap.

For the life of me I can't figure out how to get this application to work with those accessibility features it doesn't work in any way shape or form even when I click the option to put triple tap to enable voice access it doesn't work when I use double tap to enable the accessibility gesture or accessibility button set it to select to speak it should promptly open select to speak but none of it works in any way shape or form.

Any clear instructional guidance or information and help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Hi, just got a crash report, trust it's ok to paste it here?

No clue what triggered it sadly, pixel 3a on a11
[Android Apps and Games] Schism169:
Taptap doesn't seem to work with tasker. I have "allow external access" turned on but I still get this error.
[Android Apps and Games] nickelnine:
This is a very cool app but I'm not having any luck getting this to work reliably on Pixel 5 crDroid ROM. I've tried changing sensitivity, device type and double checked battery optimization. It will work for a few taps but if the phone sits idle the taps do not wake the phone at all. Are there any other things or pointers I should consider?
[Android Apps and Games] Williams.Joe:
Good, can't waiting to try it.
[Android Apps and Games] xbt-:
Doesn't work on galaxy ran S2 8.0" running LineageOS 17.1. Won't register the taps no matter what.
[Android Apps and Games] KProject:
Great app!

I just got problem on landscape orientation not responsive as portrait.

Also. About "running in background" it is possible if I push/use Magisk Module Tap, Tap to priv-app?
[Android Apps and Games] Quinny899:
The landscape thing is likely just that the sensor is less effective or you're not tapping in the same way, it doesn't intentionally block taps in landscape unless you tell it to.

As for running in the background, no moving it to priv-app won't make any difference. Just hide the notification.
[Android Apps and Games] KProject:
In portrait I can tapping anywhere (top, bottom, center) is working and still triggered.

But in landscape is just hard to trigger sometimes need 5x double tapping to trigger.

Not a big problem I'm okay with this (since swipe 3 finger is more faster to screenshot in-game)

Anything else just work fine (DerpFest A12 vayu)
[Android Apps and Games] gusfik:
work with samsung s22 ultra thank you so much
[Android Apps and Games] hondansx:
This same issue happens with me too. Pixel 5 tensor low power mode enabled. Usually after 1 days it would just stop, and I need to turn on and off taptap in the app again for it to resume working again.

Just an annoyance but letting your know too. Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] Quinny899:
This does happen on my P6 Pro, but only after 3 days. Simply opening the app is enough for it to restart, so long as you are using the latest version.

There's probably something that kills it after a very long time in the system, but the automatic restart used in the normal mode cannot be used in the Pixel low power mode as it breaks the CHRE app (which is not designed to be restarted when in the background).
[Android Apps and Games] Aearix:
Currently using Asus Zenfone 8 Flip. It was working on 0.10.1 beta but suddenly stops working all of a sudden. All tweaking done using device size or sensitivity would not work.

Tried using the latest version available however no combination of settings would work on my device. Currently running Android 12 on my device.

Any tips would be appreciated. Thanks devs! (best app that happened to me since owning a smartphone)
[Android Apps and Games] Quinny899:
You're using 1.2 and it's not working with any combination?
[Android Apps and Games] Aearix:
Yes. That's correct. Now I'm back to the beta. Somehow reinstalling it fixed it. It still stops working sometimes tho.
[Android Apps and Games] nickelnine:
I'm running on Pixel 5 as well but after 5 minutes or so of it sitting idle I have to open the app and turn off/on again. What other settings besides tensor low power mode do you have enabled if you don't mind sharing?
[Android Apps and Games] hondansx:
once after I had restarted my phone and started everything as per the instructions I encountered your issue too..... within 5 minutes its no longer working... I had to do a combination of disabling low tensor, disabling taptap, then enabling tap tap and low tensor to resolve the "5 minutes" problem. Hope this helps
[Android Apps and Games] nickelnine:
That did not work for me. What is the sensitivity and device size you are using?
[Android Apps and Games] hondansx:
if you use the Low Power Tensor mode those settings are not configurable, so I don't have any of those
[Android Apps and Games] nickelnine:
Are you on stock ROM?
[Android Apps and Games] Scalpos:
Thanks for the feedback. Any noticeable impact on the battery ? The phone doesn't last one day without recharging it once (with less than 2 hours of SOT...), and it is charged during the night (limited to 90%).
[Android Apps and Games] Aearix:
Around 5hrs of battery life on high performance. Mostly gaming and watching videos. Did not affect battery performance in any way possible
[Android Apps and Games] hondansx:
yup, no root no nothing
[Android Apps and Games] Marrisg:
On my P6 Pro, this does occur, but only after three days. If you have the newest version of the programme, simply launching it will cause it to restart.

There's definitely something in the system that kills it after a long time, but the automatic restart that works in regular mode won't work in Pixel low power mode since it damages the CHRE app (which is not designed to be restarted when in the background).
[Android Apps and Games] Quinny899:

[Android Apps and Games] Zilla0617:
Which mode will allow for tap,tap to run longer in the background without being killed (Native or Low power tensor) if one is using a Pixel 6 Pro?
[Android Apps and Games] Quinny899:
If you're on 12, use Low Power Mode (not Tensor low power, that's made for for non-Pixels). If you're on 13 and not rooted, use the new Native mode.
[Android Apps and Games] sas46:
P6P on latest stable, still getting killed after few hour

Low power Mode and legacy disabled
[Android Apps and Games] f8lxninja:
That had me confused for the longest time and was making things weird, thanks for the clarification. I assumed the tensor low power mode was made specifically for the Pixel 6 line.
[Android Apps and Games] Klusio19:
Is there an option to toggle NFC on and off by tapping? I feel like there is, somewhere, but I'm too dumb to find it.

OnePlus 8T, stock OxygenOS12, Android 12, no root.
[Android Apps and Games] Quinny899:
No, I suggest you use the Tasker action for that.
[Android Apps and Games] Klusio19:
You mean the paid one from the Play Store? I've never used this app before, that's why I'm asking.
[Android Apps and Games] Quinny899:
Yes, Tasker is a paid app. Basically, Tap, Tap is not meant to be a tasker replacement - it doesn't do everything. Toggling settings like NFC is out of scope for an app like this.
[Android Apps and Games] Last1left_91:
This thing is just a waste of time or what? I have a Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G and when I configured the app it worked 1 out of 50 times I double taped to go further to put it to work. Then, when I set the app up for a simple task like opening a specific app it didnt work at all! I have my sensitivity to maximum and screen size to the biggest and closest to my size, PIXEL 4 XL(large) but nothing seems to work. Im using the last version as well. Just tell me if there is any S20 Ultra users that made this thing work or if its just a cheap joke. Btw, while I was typing this message, it launched my google voice search 3 times, I mean this app is acting wierd or I dont know where to tap and how strong? Thanks in advance!
[Android Apps and Games] Quinny899:
You have it set up wrong. The closest isn't always the best, try the other sizes.
[Android Apps and Games] Last1left_91:
Do you own a Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra yourself and tried this method and worked? Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] Quinny899:
No, but there is at least one report of it working great on the S20U in this thread.
[Android Apps and Games] Last1left_91:
This app is completely useless and unreliable. It doesnt work on S20 Ultra, come on! Just a waste of time and it seems the developer never addressed the S20 Ultra issue yet and I guess it wont do it any time soon. Good luck all!
[Android Apps and Games] Quinny899:
I am the developer. I already told you, your config is wrong but since you don't seem to want to even try other configs, you're most welcome to just slate it and ignore all advice. That's obviously what this forum is for.
[Android Apps and Games] Last1left_91:
Config is related to device sensitivity and size, right? I will try it out now and be back with feedback! Can you pls tell me which sensor does the app uses? Thank you! Btw, I've looked through all 70 pages and found alot of users complaining of S20 , plus or ultra versions. Thats why i thought you should pay special attention to these devices. Im not saying that your nice app is not acting well but maybe is just incompatible with these devices. I expected it to work like native double tap to wake feature on the screen, then I can mark it as reliable, no offence! Brb!
[Android Apps and Games] Quinny899:
Device Size is the important option. Try all the sizes. As the screen says, the closest size to your device is not necessarily the best, it depends on where the sensor is in the device, how you hold the phone, how you tap etc. Both the accelerometer and gyroscope are used.

Like I said, there is at least one recent account of it working well on the S20 Ultra. Older releases may vary as there was a system issue with Tensor Low Power mode on those devices (make sure it is off, as is the default).

I cannot give "special attention" to certain devices, as I do not own them. As a friendly reminder, this is a free app, I do not receive payments (other than occasional donations), I cannot afford to invest in buying devices specifically for testing.
[Android Apps and Games] piet8stevens:
Great app, v1.3 working perfectly on my Poco F1 with custom ROM crDroid 5.9 (Android 9).

I am also trying to get it to work on a Samsung Galaxy A20e with Android 11. I have tried all Device Sizes (both Newest and Legacy), but cannot get it to work. There is one sequence of actions that makes the app do something. I have set the sensitivity to highest. This is how to replicate it:

1. Set Device Size to Pixel 3 XL, enable accessibility services

2. Double tap (I hold the device in my hand and tap quite hard on the back, top of device). Nothing happens.

3. Set Device Size to Pixel 4 XL. After restarting the service, the phone starts taking screenshots and does not stop. Only way to stop it is to set Device Size back to Pixel 3 XL.

I attach the logcat which was filtered for "taptap".

EDIT: I just saw a discussion in this thread re. battery optimization. It is switched off for Tap, Tap.

Please let me know if you need me to try out anything else to provide more info.
[Android Apps and Games] piet8stevens:
I am also trying to use double tap while the phone is in my pocket.

Using a Poco F1, double tap v1.3 works perfectly (sensitivity set to max, but not in Advanced) when I hold the phone in my hand - it is so sensitive even just slightly tapping the back with my nail will trigger the action. And tapping on the side of the phone does not. Really excellent. So far, 100% success and no false alarms, also not when in my pants pocket.

With the phone in my pocket, the hit rate is low. It sometimes triggers but most of the time not. I have not measured but would estimate 10% success rate.

Is it possible in Android to have a "double tap profile" which could be different depending on whether the phone is in the pocket or not?
[Android Apps and Games] mrjellee:
I want to use this on my OnePlus Nord running the latest Pixel Experience build. Unfortunately, the quick tap setting is not shown in the settings and when I open this app, it says that Quick Tap is enabled and won't work unless I turn it off or change the configuration of Quick Tap. Any fixes?
[Android Apps and Games] Quinny899:
Ah so it's Pixel Experience that's causing that then, that shouldn't be set by default.

[Android Apps and Games] mrjellee:
Thank you so much! It worked.
[Android Apps and Games] MendelJ:
Feature request: currently the portrait/landscape sensor Requirements don't follow the device orientation, but rather the display, i.e. if the phone is physically in landscape but the app onscreen has no landscape view or auto-rotate is off, the app will consider the phone to be in portrait orientation. Can this be changed so that it follows the device's physical orientation?
[Android Apps and Games] MendelJ:

[Android Apps and Games] GalaxyA325G:
The obvious question to ask you is did you longpress on the app icon, and then did a menu pop up?

I think the menu might be different per launcher, but on my Nova launcher, a long press brings up a menu with "app info" being one of the selections. At the bottom of the resulting activity that pops up is an "Uninstall" button with a trashcan icon.

That's pretty much how all launchers work I think, even if you don't have the Nova launcher installed.
[Android Apps and Games] MendelJ:
Sorry, I was referring to my comment. Edited to be clearer. But thank you for so patiently trying to help with what appeared to be a painfully basic question.

correct me if i am wrong but i saw the app can use low power mode if i am rooted

but I can't seem to figure out where to set it

nor even it asks for the root permission on the low power mode ...

can i use low power mode ?
[Android Apps and Games] Quinny899:
Low Power Mode is Pixel exclusive, nowhere does it say you can use it on other devices.

Tensor low power mode works regardless of root, but also breaks some devices so is disabled by default.

[Android Apps and Games] Quinny899:
The folded/unfolded gate uses an old version of the method which may not work with the latest folding devices. I can't use newer ones as it needs an activity, so doesn't work from a background service.
[Android Apps and Games] daimbar:
Thanks for the quick answer. That's a shame, but I understand. I have used screen on/off as an alternative. Since I rarely use turn the display off when its open.

@Quinny899 , is there any way to make this app work on the Nothing phone? I've basically tried everything to make this work (custom sensitivity, device size, rebooted a few times, tried different app versions)? No dice, though. It simply refuses to register taps. The device is not rooted as of yet. Maybe I could pull some logs, if they were needed and you told me how to perform that.

Thanks a bunch in advance!

Hello!

Just found out about this app, and tried it, and I am glad I gave it a go :D

Works awesome, and the gates and requirements can make a lot of unique double tap functionalities.

I have a question regarding the functions, related to my device, SONY Xperia 5 ii.

- Xperia have a system function where you can open an app in pop-up @ floating window mode. I did not see this action/shortcut available. Does it require root access, or this have not been implemented as of current release (1.4)?

Additional low priority requests.

1) In terms of GUI, when the requirements have been added (eg: App Showing, double tap triggers Screenshot), is it possible to label the individual requirements as what what chosen (say, if Chrome is open, then the requirement will show Chrome logo, or just write "Chrome" or something). Would be helpful if I only want to trigger the Screenshot in certain apps only, but at the current state, I'll need to remember which app I already added to the requirement.

2) When selecting an action or requirement (tap and hold) to remove it, I can't seem to see a distinct difference between the selected, and the rest of the list (at least in Android's Dark Theme). Would be nice to have an indication (tick or something), or a bigger change in color, for better differentiation.

If these have been mentioned previously in this thread, I apologize.

I literally just registered to XDA forum because I want this app to be grow and polish its flaws.

Thanks!
