Unfortunately, Raul, I am one of those with problems with the two-finger double-tap. Answering my phone on the go often results in a missed call because I can't make it work fast enough. One thing I did pick up on in my reading is making sure your fingers are separated so that the screen registers that there are two fingers.
That brings up another thought. Is it possible to answer and hang up calls with the power or home button? This really has been difficult for me.

Seriously I've seen others have trouble with a 2-finger double-tap and if I could see how they do it perhaps I could offer a suggestion as to how they could adjust things. My only suggestion if you want to improve this gesture would be to do it over and over in the practice area. -- Raul A.
