A small usability issue I’ve noticed is with the double-tap to sleep/wake behavior.
I have double-tap enabled, but the experience feels inconsistent:
- On the home screen, double tapping works — the phone goes to sleep
- But inside apps, double tap doesn’t work, so I have to first go back to the home screen just to lock the phone
- Double tapping on the lock screen also doesn’t put the device back to sleep
This becomes inconvenient in real usage. For example, if I’m listening to music and go to the home screen just to lock the phone, but then decide to listen to another song — I have to unlock again, reopen the app, and navigate back.
It would be much better if Nothing OS could improve this by:
- Allowing double tap to sleep inside apps
- Supporting double tap to sleep on lock screen
- Adding a Quick Settings toggle to instantly lock/sleep the device
These small improvements would make everyday usage smoother and reduce unnecessary steps.
Hope the team considers this as well 🙌
