Double Tap screen on/off app need - Honor Play Themes, Apps, and Mods

Kindly help me out by providing an app or trick to to use double tap screen on or off to use it on my Honor Play.
Tried plenty from play store but non work perfectly

None will work unless you root your phone. It's the android version (7 and up) that's preventing it, not EMUI specifically. Unless, Huawei/Honor adds it as a feature, you got not no luck on having it (not perfectly). I tried this several times as well since my previous Asus Zenfone supports this feature (but only for the default launcher) but I really haven't found anything.

There is a widget that locks your screen when you press it... Just add it to bottom bar of your home screen!
It comes as part of emui system

Yep. but only for the default launcher. it can't be added if you have a different launcher. in my case, Nova.

Nova now works with gestures to lock screen on Pie.
And fingerprint scanner still works ?

You always have a launcher, the one that comes with the phone is called Huawei Home, but had a look now and couldn't find it among the apps you can choose from.
So you'll need a custom launcher for that. I'd recommend Action Launcher. Nova and Sapphire is quite nice as well.
Thanks, not quite my home screen, but a very good solution that will probably turn out better than using my home screen.

wait official OTA , Will be Fixed .
It's so annoying that there is a system process which is the H home app yet we can't find it in the list. I really like the stock launcher and I don't want to have to change to another one.

Hi, i don't know about EMUI 4.0 but i'm using Nova Launcher Beta under EMUI 5.0, i did'nt find any other solution.
It might be hidden and accessible with root access, but it's not a stock feature on the Mate 9.

I've got an Huawei GX8 MM_6.0.1
In Settings/Intelligent assistance/Movement control/Double Tap can be enable.

Nova Launcher Beta 5.0-beta10
Nova Settings
Gestures and actions
Gestures -> Double Tap = Lock Screen
and unlock screen with fingerprint not before 10/15 sec, i don't know why there is a latence of 10/15 secondes.
When double tapping it asked me if i wanted to give Nova Launcher admin rights, i said no, since if you authorize admin rights you won't be able to use fingerprint for unlocking.
Nova developer Kevin answered to me about this and said that this is a known issue and for the time being there is a work around only for those who are rooted.
So imo it's only a matter of time to get it fixed.
But Kevin is proposing that if we go to Google Play Store and purchase "Screen Lock Pro" we can use it as a work around, i did it and within Nova settings Gestures instead to make "lock screen" action as a result of double tap you ask to launch "Screen Lock Pro", but i wasn't satisfied with the result so i went back to the latence of 10/15 secondes that doesn't annoy me.
But i found that during this 10/15 seconds navigation icons at the bottom of the screen are still visible and if you tap the square one when it is visible you can come back to the unlocked screen, if you wait for the delay of 10/15 secondes you'll have to unlock with the fingerprint which is good.
I don't know if my explanations are clears but using it is very easy, very fast and very safe, good luck.

What's Huawei GX8 MM_6.0.1 ? is it a Mate 9 ?
Huawei G8 or GX8 is an another model phone with Marsmallow 6.0.1 EMUI 4.0
http://s3.amazonaws.com/digitaltrends-uploads-prod/2016/01/huawei-gx8.jpg
On this model phone, when Double Tap is enable, I can see clock without using Power button.
I just want to do that with Double Tap on Mate 9.
It's unfortunate that EMUI 5 doesn't offer this possibility
Tried to find a way... Doesn't work. At least I can't find a way to turn the screen ON when the screen is turned off and the phone locked.

I'm using "Nova Launcher Licence" which is called "Nova Launcher Prime" (5,25 €) on Google Play store, does it make the difference, i believe that it should offer more possibilities.
Yeap it does, here under are the description on Google Play for Nova Launcher Prime :
Nova Launcher Prime
Unlock the following extras by purchasing Nova Launcher Prime
• Gestures - Swipe, pinch, double tap and more on the home screen to open your favorite apps
• Unread Counts - Never miss a message. Unread count badges for Hangouts, SMS, Gmail and more using the TeslaUnread plugin
• Custom Drawer Groups - Create new tabs or folders in the app drawer
• Hide Apps - Keep a clean app drawer by hiding never used apps
• Icon Swipes - Set custom actions for swiping on app shortcuts or folders
• More scroll effects - Such as Wipe, Accordion, and Throw
Nova Launcher Prime acts as a license to unlock these features in the free Nova Launcher App. You will need to install Nova Launcher first.

Agreed... but the double tap isn't working on my side to turn the screen on when the phone is off or locked it. Is it working for you? If yes, please provide me how you did that... as it only works to shut the screen off for me.
Thnx!
PS: i have the license (been using Nova for over 2 years now) and also in the Beta.
The launcher can't wake your device from sleep. The double tap actions in Nova are for when you're interacting with the launcher eg. on your home screen.

No it doesn't work this way and for me it's better like this, allowing turning the screen on with double tap is allowing anybody to access to your mobile, i personaly doesn't find too hard to unlock with fingerprint, even when the mobile is sitting on the desk.

Ok thats what i thought. turning on the screen with double tap on your desk doesn't let people access your phone when locked just let's you input your pin or pattern faster, instead of picking it up. It's really a little detail for comfort on my side as my phone is most of the time in front of me on my desk.
Thanks anyhow.

You're welcome but what i'm telling you is only my using, Nova Launcher could do may be what you are looking for but i don't know how to do it, you should ask Kevin by email, he is answering questions without any problem.

How do I display weather on lock screen?

I come from Windows phone and I get to chose which apps show on lock screen
I remember Android had something similar. I have an honor 8 now
Trying to make yahoo weather the lock screen. Not just yahoo but anything else too. Not working even though I read a tutorial. Is it even possible to open an app from lock by swipe left, right, up or down like other Android? Not talking about finger print smart key.
I have magazine lock screen with yahoo weather set to lock screen in notifications with priority and everything else on. Still not working. Any idea?
I was under the impression that that capability was done away with in Lollipop and later for security reasons?

xposed work well on stock android, emui supports xposed too but with limited modules..about emui5, its based on nougat , so no xposed for nougat yet..
Isn't there a option to do so in the lockscreen settings?

Couldn't find. They have a magazine theme style theme for emui now where if your on lock screen you can swipe up from bottom of screen to reveal some notification tools like wifi, NFC, LTE, and play pause button but no way to show weather or change lock screen to that of an app or open an app from screen by swiping only
What I found is that running Xposed on EMUI was that it would break my dialer. I did a little research and found it to be a known issue.

fingerprint gesture

Anyone onow a way to use the fingerprint gesture to pull down the notification shade like in the pixel and the s8???? I tried some apps but they usually dnt wrk.... Is it a hardware limitation on the n5 that it might not b possible??? I tried fingerprint quick action when it was in the beta stage and it wrked great, but once it hit the playstore it stopped responding like b4....
Any one know a way?
Hardware limitation I think..
you can use a launcher called: Nova Launcher
but u need to buy the premium version.
to be more specific, it will not act the same way you are asking, in the premium features you have on screen swipe gesture where you can assign the swipe down gesture to show the notifications.
I'm using this method and it is really nice.

op6 beta 6 new gesture aminations

New gesture aminations its feels phone is slow like syrup. I hope it can be turned off soon
Even worse if you use rootless luncher
Works quite well for me. The animation is just as fast, its just different, some people will like it, some wont. But personally, i think, with a little tweaking in further updates, the animation will look very good. They're trying to mimics the iphone app closing animation i think.
No prob here... Using stock launcher really smooth animations... updated from stable...
I'm fine with the animations except the super slow (maybe twice as slow?) home gesture animation... Any idea how to disable or change it? I know I can turn off animations under accessibility options... But I just want the home swipe to be immediate not change everything else.

Oh it does, if you install OnePlus launcher 2.5 you will get oreo recents... If you uninstall completely OnePlus launcher you will lose your multitasking screen lol
When i was on ob5 i installed the new OnePlus launcher and i got the new gesture, so yes, it may work

You could also freeze the OnePlus Launcher if your using a different one. That will give you the Oreo recents.

This worked before the new gesture is implemented. Now if you freeze the OP Launcher, the Oreo recents will only show when you use navigation bar. The gesture will do nothing when you try to swipe "home"..
