Tap, Tap is an Android app that ports the Pixel's double-tap-on-back gesture to any Android 7.0+ device with an accelerometer and gyroscope. It offers 50+ configurable actions triggered by double or triple taps, with condition-based gating and adjustable sensitivity via trained ML models.

Use cases

  • double tap the back of my phone to toggle the flashlight
  • launch the camera by tapping the back of my device
  • simulate back button press with a back tap gesture
  • run a Tasker task by double tapping my phone
  • port Android 12 Quick Tap gesture to older Android devices
  • trigger different actions depending on which app is open
  • triple tap back of phone to launch a shortcut

When to choose

  • you want the Pixel back-tap gesture on a non-Pixel or pre-Android-12 device
  • you need gesture actions gated by context like screen state or foreground app
  • you use Tasker and want tap gestures as triggers

When to avoid

  • your device lacks an accelerometer or gyroscope
  • you only need Android 12+ native Quick Tap and own a compatible Pixel
  • you want to toggle deep system settings, which is better handled via Tasker
