I noticed that the native launcher for S8+ does not have a double tap to lock feature. Any alternative that will work finger print to unlock?
nova launcher, smart launcher
I use one of them

Hello, good day!
Are there any apps there that can lock your phone screen (like double tap to lock), and can be unlocked using your fingerprint only?
I have a rooted device, and have tried nova launcher's double tap to lock gesture, but every time I unlock my phone, it asks for the pin. I'm on android 6.0 btw.
thanks
I like to have double-tab on home button to turn screen off, is that available on stock?
I know you can configure double-tab on screen to turn screen off, but I use Nova launcher, and the double tab action is probably controlled by Nova. If I use Nova double tab gesture, then I can't unlock with fingerprint...
Or any suggestion to turn screen off without pressing the power button?
U would need a custom rom
in LeeDrOiD ROM there is a option: Always Allow Fingerprint Unlock
Double tap in Nova launcher is configurable in the way it does not conflict with fingerprint unlock. I know it is possible cause I use it but I do not know how to configure it anymore
I ended up loading ViperU and it's working great!
Hi there, I'm interested in getting this phone, but wondering if it can wake by double tapping the screen?
thanks!
The closest thing I have gotten working is double tap to sleep (via Nova Launcher settings). But I don't think there's any way to enable double tap to wake on this phone.
You can double tap the finger print sensor to wake the phone...... But not the screen.
Double tap screen lock not working. Phone wakes up after double tapping but does not lock when the screen is on
try reset phone?
You need to also set the double tap to sleep/wake in the POCO launcher as well.
For unknown reason Xiaomi had 2 separate settings for double tap to wake/sleep. You need both turned on.
For double tap to sleep, you need to minimize to launcher and then double tap a blank space in launcher.
You should use Poco Launcher. Any other may not work, like lawnchair launcher. Anyway, with Nova launcher double tap to on/off screen works, but you should give administrator and aceessibility permissions.
Thought it might be because I use Nova Launcher Prime, so, uninstalled it, rebooted. in the motions & gestures
both are turned on, but only double tap to wake works.
Same thing happens when I tried Nova Launcher. Double tap to wake works, but double tap to sleep only works
if it is the one that requires you to use the PIN to wake up. The other option in the Nova Launcher brings up
something else.
Any ideas?
Found the problem. I could swear I had it set on the phone, but apparently it wasn't. Even though Nova Launcher had it set, it wouldn't work without the one on the phone also turned on. Duh!
In Nova Launcher, you need to allow it to modify system settings. After setting double tap to wake in Nova, when you double tap the mon, there should be a pop up to let you confirm Nova to apply double tap to wake.
