Nexus 6P: How to double tap to unlock?

[AC Question]

Hi everyone,

Just so wondering what is the easiest way to use a double tap on the screen to unlock.

Thanks

Hi, I think you need to root the device to gain access to this feature - http://www.techtimes.com/articles/1...-double-tap-to-wake-feature-in-its-kernel.htm

This is what I've been told, as well. I'm coming from an LG G2, and it's probably the one feature of the G2 that I miss the most. If my poor 6P were sentient, it would be SO annoyed at how many times I've double-tapped its screen to wake it up.

Same here, coming from a G4 that is ONE feature I really miss!

Same here. My last three device had this feature. It's really handy for me when I have my 6p laying flat on my desk. I use smart lock so I'm don't have to worry about the pin.

Only thing stopping me from rooting is that it breaks Android pay. Three is a app in the store but it doesn't work well enough imo
