About this app

"TapTap Lock" is an app using widget to lock the screen and keep the fingerprint-unlocking function.
Appearance: Make the image of the widget fully transparent to display the wallpaper completely, so you won’t feel the existence of the widget.
Operation: One tap or Double Tap are available in the widget. Just touch the widget to lock the screen, and you can still use fingerprint-unlocking function.
An easy-to-use screen lock widget for you.
----------
This app uses the service in the "Accessibility" to monitor the "TapTap Lock", so that the screen can be locked without a physical power button.
"TapTap Lock" does not store or transmit information about its user, nor the usage of the application.
----------
"TapTap Lock" needs to run on Android P (9.0) or higher.

Ratings and reviews

Demo box in app works fine, but not after I exit app. The widget never appears on my main screen. This is on a Motorola One 5G Ace running Android 10. I don't know if there is some setting in the phone blocking it that I can turn off, or if it just doesn't work on my phone. I uninstalled it and tried again. This time I got the widget active and it works great. This was the first time I've messed with widgets, and I didn't understand that it required an additional step to get that working, and how to go about it. A better explanation of the steps required, a link to a tutorial, or a link to YouTube video would have saved me a lot of time & aggravation. Not everyone who needs this app is up to date on all the latest Android bells & whistles. That said, now that it's working, it does EXACTLY what I wanted. Thanks!

The best feature of LG devices is the double tap. Pixels have the greatest operating system of all time, and you can double tap to wake the screen, but not to lock it. This widget allows me to add the one feature I wish Pixels had. Absolutely incredible. The air horn app is the only app that can top this. (it's literally just a button and when you press it, it makes the sound of an air horn. Simple yet perfect).

It just works! Unlike other apps I've tried, this one lets me lock the phone with a double tap (I resized the widget to cover most of the screen and made it transparent) and then unlock the phone with my fingerprint or facial recognition. A very well designed app. My only request would be to include a paid, ad-free version, although the ads (at least so far) have not been at all obtrusive and are only on the app settings screen. Nicely done!
