Has double tap been useful for you? (alien.top)

I’ve been really disappointed by the new Double Tap feature since I got the S9 last month. On top of not having many use-cases, the watch didn’t recognize every time I did the gesture which made it really frustrating to use.

I just realized though that I like to wear my bands on the slightly looser side, which I guess makes it way harder for the watch to recognize when you do the gesture. Tightening up my band has helped tremendously and the watch basically never misses it now.

The lack of many use-cases still is a bummer though. How are you guys using it?

So far I’ve only used it while I’m walking with my coffee in one hand - i use siri voice command to start workout walk and double pinch gesture to hit start.

I see myself using it to dismiss things while driving or dismissing reminders. I struggle to get it to work if im not sotting or standing upright.
