Tap Tap App ( Screen On-Off )

This app is awesome. Saves me from pressing the power button all the time. But it uses quite a bit of battery if the proximity sensor is turned on all of the time. Is it possible to make it only enable proximity sensor when there's more than 1 notification pending? Having this would help with battery. It will work great because most of the time when we want to use a wave action is when we want to check something really quick

The power button on my Nexus 4 stopped working. I stumbled across this app in my hunt to find a solution for locking/unlocking my phone. I figured out how to get it to work reliably on the Nexus 4: ensure your phone is upright (as if you were talking on it) then swipe a finger over the top left corner of the device 3 times.

Works great on my xperia z1. Better than the button for sure. Figure out the proximity area on your phone. Vibration feedback helps here. Just fiddle. Watch the video! Sensor in different spots on different phones: update, been using for awhile now and. I tried all the others, some again in last few days. This one is only one that works. Only use to turn on screen. Perfect. Tap tap tap, intermediate. Power button hard to get to in certain case configurations. Problem solved! :-) thank you

As some of you may know the HTC One power button really sucks, mine sunk in after 2 months of using it, so I downloaded this app. This app works better than most of the no-root volume button screen on apps. I just downloaded it so the success rate of turning my screen on is low-ish, but I think I just need more practice. Follow the instructions and it will work.

Power button quit on me sometime in the night. This app allows me to put the phone to sleep and wake it again without needing the power button to work. Now I just have to be careful not to let the battery run out before I can get it fixed. If you're using a One X, the proximity sensor is on the screen almost directly over the charger port.

It just plain works on my phone and it works darn good. I hate having to use the power button to bring my phone back to life, I was just telling somebody the other day that I'd so prefer to just tap on the screen and he said there are apps out there that do that. Found this one, installed and works great so far.

Many thanks to developer for this app. First I had doubt on its working. But I must say with properly understanding the provided training by developer am PERFECTLY & HAPPILY using this app in my MOTO E (XT1022). One can get rid of auto restart issue in moto E. Soooo... Here is yours 5 *****

This app runs very well....about 80% of the time. The trick is to take the app off task killers...android assistant etc. Very well and very good concept but could use a little bit more of an update. Make it more sensitive to taps to the proximity sensor. But other than that very good. My power button broke so this is an amazing app and it has helped me. If there was a paid version with better response...I'd pay for it.

This app totally rocks my world! Just what I've been searching for all my life.. Works perfectly and super easy to use. Both the tap and prox sensor options work flawlessly for me. Thanks a million for creating this one, it's a keeper for sure

I feel like a magician now!! :) A wave of your hand is all you need to wake up your phone or put it to sleep.. Wonderful app. People who have not rated it 5.. They have probably not figured out how to use it yet.. :p

It works but it need users to be perfectly accurate with their action and timing. Also, app has difficulty to on screen after long sleep. Very hard to use even if one has perfected it

After I've installed this app my phone started to vibrate randomly! No notification or ring it just vibrate even when I have disabled this app it still happening! I didn't install any other app or mess up with settings at all, it's driving me crazy!

I installed it in my moto e jus to prevent it from auto restart while using power button. It worked well but when phone is kept idle for long time the sensor does not work.. Fix it

I had difficulty with the proximity sensor at first. Be sure you quit (back all the way out of) the app after configuring. Wasn't completely reliable on my S2 but it's OK on my S4 and i use it all the time to wake the screen.

...sometimes the apps didn't function well, like my phone in sleep mode or standby mode, when I want to wake up my phone by waving, I can feel the vibrate but screen didn't respond. I did add ignore at kill apps management (3rd party apps) and Sony Stamina too. Well I like the concept like "tap tap system" by waving consistent to wake up phone. Not like others apps near the sensor, phone wake up. If can, do redesign the UI, look so messy. Thanks and hope the next release.

This application has been a hit and miss for me. I have a broken power button, and I'm looking for a termporary solution. Tap tap works temperamentally, I think now and then my mobile "goes into deep sleep" where the proximity sensor doesnt work. In the settings there is an option to keep the proximity on at all times, but there is a problem somewhere.

I love the LG G3 double tap but have an GS5. I hate the "off" solution in this app. A widget can be hard to find and takes time. The "on" gesture is perfect! OTOH the "Awesome on/off" app turns the screen "off" with the same gesture but fails in the "on" side. I am currently using both apps, BUT why have two apps that do what one should accomplish? I will be watching memory usage & battery drain to decide which app to use. 3 stars because it is half right, 5 stars when improved!

Just doesn't unlocks the screen in first attempt on Xperia z1. Minimum 15-20 times I need to move fingures over the sensor to unlock the screen. Unfortunately, in the end I need to use the hardware keys to unlock screen... Totally waste...

Been using this awesome app for a long time but suddenly whenever i unlock, it just directly goes to the home screen without asking for my pin first. Sometimes it unlocks inside my bag and battery gets wasted.

Works like it should. READ THE DIRECTIONS, stop with bad reviews. Setup was easy, been testing for last hour - works great!! Saves me from plugging in power to turn screen on. @dev: thank you for developing a wonderful app!!!!

works but not very stable. 85% of the time, pull the phone out of pocket, tap tap doesnt work as you expected to turn the screen on. .... I have no problem to turn the screen off. but really need a reliable way to turn it on without use the Power button....

I couldn't get this app to work for a long time. I tried similar apps that worked, but not the way I wanted. So I kept coming back to this one after uninstalling it a few times. The instructions on how to get the unlock to work are not clear at all. Depending on your phone, you may have the same problem that I did, which I resolved by adjusting the sensitivity in the drop down menu under "set up sensor". Once you figure that out, and practice getting the tap speed right, this app works like a charm.

Thanks so much. Need some improvement though because sometimes I have to tap 3 times to wake the phone up. Overall, it's brilliant. Xperia Z LTE

Unlocking works.. Locking doesn't.. Plus the proximity sensor is on even when the phone is locked if you guys take a look at it in dark you will find the sensor glowing.. Someone throw some light :-/

This app works as my expectations. Working fine on moto e with Android KitKat and now on lolipop version 5.1. It resolve problem of restarting while pressing power button to unlock screen. Well also want to inform that my friend having Moto G with Android 5.0., where it would not work

Its like a medication for my cellphone, my power key was damaged and guess what my cellphone doesn't need power key anymore credit goes to tap tap app.

The power button on my Nexus 4 stopped working. I stumbled across this app in my hunt to find a solution for locking/unlocking my phone. I figured out how to get it to work reliably on the Nexus 4: ensure your phone is upright (as if you were talking on it) then swipe a finger over the top left corner of the device 3 times.

Power button was not working. No need to give two shits now.

Saved my moto e from frequent restarting while pressing the power key. Tried other apps but this one doesn't drains the juice. Thumbs up.

Tap tap on the sensor not always turns the screen on (although the vibration feedback goes on). Also, when the screen is on and I tap tap into the sensor or tap into the widget, it redirects me to the app screen with the text "Enable (installing)'. If I click on it, nothing happens... I hope i'm not doing anything stupid, otherwise I appreciate a fix for that!

When I start the training, it's working and it colored green. I turn the vibrate on so I can feel when I try to use it. And then, I lock my screen but no response! When I open the app it's worked. But when I lock it, it seems not work at all. Please fix it!

This app is awsome while it works. When i have my phone on the sensor works great while im using the phone, but when I stop using my phone for a while and then I want to wake up the screen and double tap the sensor, the screen doesn't wake up until I turn on the screen with the lock button again. Please fix this and I will rate 5 stars.

It doesn't seem to work with smart lock when locked via widget. I use this app because my lock button is kinda broken, but when i lock my phone using the widget it disables smart lock and that is an issue for me. If anyone could help me with this I would be happy to rate it 5 stars

Perfectly suit my needs to eliminate the too much using and could have ruin or damage my phone's power button...thank you much...two thumbs up c",)

I use my Nexus 4 for GPS on my bike. My phone is locked up in an iGrip box to protect it from shocks, dust, and rain, but also keeps me from being able to press the power button. Now I can turn off/on the screen and my battery lasts much longer on bike tours. EDIT: more often than not it doesn't work when a big cover is around it.

Only one of its kind.

This app works nicely on my Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 with no battery consumption. But it consumes more battery in my Xperia Sola. Kindly fix the bug early and inform me. I give 5 points for this app in respect of Samsung Galaxy Tab 2. I feel sorry to mention that you did not respond to my request all these days.

Got this when my S3's power button decided to fail, and so far, it hasn't failed yet. Once I toyed around with the settings, at least I got /some/ functionality back, though being able to turn on the phone would be nice.

Install and uninstall several times but it's won't change the settings to enable the app.. kindly fix.

Thank you so much for this app, now i can use my phone. Works great ^_^
