Get it, but pity Apple does not!
At least now we know.
I wonder if any Applevis members on here might ever have considered
taking this to Apple?
Thanks,

Apple named it the Magic Tap for a reason. It does multiple things

It seems like that idea has caught up with them and bit them in the
gluteusmaximus.

Siegar,
on re-reading your mail the two-finger double tap I wanted only for
answering calls but it appears that it has a dual function, playing
media the second, not good at all.

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

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
