Android 12 beta 2 Tip: How to add “Quick Tap” gesture to pixel 5?

Google is developing a new gesture for Pixel phones that allows a quick double-tap on the back of the phone to perform customizable actions.

Now, finally, in the second beta version of Android 12, Google has released the “Quick Tap” feature previously called “Columbus”, but it is only available on Pixel 5.

In Android 12 beta 2, this feature has been activated on Google’s Pixel 5 and some Pixel 4a 5G devices without any tricks.

STEPS:

• Just go to “Settings”> “System”> “Gestures” and look for the new name “Quick Tap” for this feature.
• Once enabled, this feature defaults to taking a screenshot, but it can also:
• Trigger Google Assistant (or other voice assistants)
• Play/Pause media
• Open the Recent Apps menu
• Pull down the notification shade
• Open a custom app
