Does it have ambient screen and / or double tap to wake? - Xiaomi Mi Pad 4 Questions & Answers

You probably know what I mean:
- Ambient screen makes the device wake up when you pick it up.
- Double tap to wake makes it wake up when you, well, double tap the screen.
Those two features are a must for me, so could you tell me if this tablet has them?
Thanks!

Double tap works for me. Have no idea about the first one.

Well, does it show you notifications when you pick it up?

No, it doesnt. Double tap to wake also wasn't enabled by default. But I don't know whether you can enable this 'ambient screen' function or it doesn't exist here.

[Q] Double tap home screen action

I was just curious if there is a way to set the action for when I double tap the screen. Maybe I missed it in the settings somewhere. I have an LG phone and use double tap to wake and put my phone to sleep. With Themer it just opens the settings dialog.

I found the setting but cant seem to find a system default setting. Knock on and off is one of the LG G2's best features. It would be nice if it could be used with Themer. Could it be considered for a future release?
Other than that great app.

Try knocking the status bar if you have that enabled. It should work.

Double tap to wake/sleep

Does anybody know a way to enable double tape to wake/sleep?
Instead of double tap, long press on the bottom of the screen where the home button would be if the screen were on. There's no built-in double tap to sleep, but some third party launchers (like Nova) have implemented a work around. But it only works on the home screen.
The home button method is lmag, but still not great. It's nice to be able to just tap any part of the display and for it to wake up. That's one thing the iPhone definitely got right this time around compared to S9+

Will double tap to turn off the screen work from anywhere, no matter what app is on the screen?
IT would be a nice feature to have, I use it all the time on my LG

the rating speaks for itself :crying:
Implementing this feature will probably add battery drain as some sensors need to be active all the time also a custom kernel could implement it. Wait and see

It can be an option.
The S9's "always on" home button requires a sensor to be on all the time, too. But the SD 845 has a very low power mode to support these sorts of things. I don't think double tap to wake would use any more power than Samsung's approach. But I'm happy with Samsung's approach, but I wouldn't mind a double tap to sleep, like my old G3 had.
ElementalX has double-tap to wake.

If you have nova prime you can setup double tap to sleep.

Well, sort of. One, it doesn't really put the phone to sleep instantly. What it does is reset the screen timeout to a very short value, so the screen goes black. Then, after the phone really goes to sleep, it resets the screen timeout in the background. Two, you can only do it from a Nova home screen. In LG's implementation, you could tap on the status bar on any screen to put the phone to sleep. (Or maybe it was the Nav bar. It's been a long time since I had my G3.)

Yeah you are correct on both. LGs way is anywhere half way down the lock screen could be double tapped to go to sleep. That's what I'm looking for. Just grabbed the s9 and I miss the dttS on the ls. The double tap on home button isn't too bad I suppose but still also miss the full screen dttW from LG.
if you have the home button showing on always on display you can double tap it to wake(instead of pressing it hard) just double tap it
If you use Nova Launcher you can use the double tap to turn off gesture.

Thanks... sometimes a long press takes a little while to work; double-tap seems instant!
This douple tap feature was available but it stopped 2 days ago. I don't know why or how to set it again.

Does the device has an double tap to wake feature?
Supposedly yes from the reviews. Just no "always on display".

IPS displays and AOD don't mix. It's an OLED feature.

Thanks a lot. Nice
Sorry to bring this up again but it doesn't work on my F1, it ask for permission which I'd already set in settings as per the picture already posted. I use smart launcher and that has double tap off and that doesn't work either.
It has worked for about a day with the smart launcher setting but goes back to "this device requires to enable accessibility services etc." this had already been done but doesn't work.
Is there a fix for this as the double tap is really useful but not working properly due to permissions on the f1.
