iOS 14 will allow you to control the iPhone by touching the back

  • The user will be able to customize the commands of the touches of this functionality, still in tests

The new version of the operating system for iPhone mobile phones that Apple prepares, iOS 14, includes a new function that allows users to control the phone by touching the back two or three times.

This has been warned by the first users on Twitter, of the beta version of iOS 14 -which the American company presented last Monday during its developer event-, as has been the case of the journalist Federico Viticci.

The new function, which is known as ' Back Tap ' in English, can be activated in the beta of iOS 14 through the accessibility functions, located in the system settings, and within them, in the settings for touch controls.

By enabling this feature, users have the ability to interact with their iPhone by touching the back of the terminal quickly two or three times, and it also works with some cases on, according to Viticci.

The two- or three-touch commands on the back can be customized so that the user can use them as shortcuts for quicker and easier access to certain tasks
