Hi Richard,

 

By switching this setting, can you still start and stop media when there is no 
call coming in? I see the value of disabling that crossover confusion but do 
find the magic tap useful for media in general.

 

Thanks for any insights,

 

Joe

Subject: Re: Alternative toch gesture for answering phone

 

I went into settings, accessibility, VoiceOver, Commands, and turned off Magic 
tap fork media, so now it works to answer the phone without starting music 
playing.

This is a 16 pro running iOS 26.

Earphones can still answer by tapping the button too.

Certain earphones, I suspect by Apple, and maybe others you can tell Siri to 
answer.

HTH,

Hi folk,

I disabled the two-finger double tap action for answering a call as it use 
often startt music playing so anyone using a different gesture for the phone 
instead?

I can fined the 'answer a call' button on the phone but I reckon a gesture 
whereby I can double tap on the screen would be preferable/quicker.

Thanks,

Tony
