Hi, one suggestion I have for this situation is to try and use the index and middle finger. This might mean shaping them into a print V so they are a bit separated from each other. You can make a fist with only these two fingers extended. Now, making sure your fingertips touch the screen at the same time, lightly tap the screen twice in rapid succession.

Maybe this will help.

Hi,
Try a gentle and soft tabbing!

Some people tab the little phone so hard, causing the phone to shake during
tabbing.

When I first got my iPhone, I had a similar problem. It turns out I had a
lazy finger, I think it was my thumb, and it would kind of droop down a bit
and occasionally brush the screen during a gesture, changing the gesture
altogether! I also found that the fingers holding the iPhone would
occasionally wrap around to the front a bit too much and get picked up as
another finger during a gesture. As Raul said, paying attention to this and
practicing resolved these issues for me.

Your fingers must be shaped oddly, <smile>. 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.

The iPhone confuses it with a 3 finger double tap, and speech toggles
on and off.

My most sincere apologies. I answer call waiting with a two-finger
double-tap. You can also find the answer button on the screen if you
wish.

Hi,

 From what I found (at least with my 4S), you cannot do two finger
double tap to start a call (unless others have other things to say).
For ending a call, you can double tap with two fingers anywhere on
the screen.

Cheers,

Joseph

Can you double tap the screen with two fingers to start a call?

Is there a certain point on the screen where you should tap?

Hi,

At least for first question, you can make a call in at least three
ways:

<!--[if !supportLists]-->.<!--[endif]-->Use keypad: dial the phone
number using the phone keypad (from phone app, tap the keypad
button to bring it). After entering the phone number, press the
call button (bottom center between "add to contacts" and "delete"
keys).

<!--[if !supportLists]-->.<!--[endif]-->From contacts list: Tap the
contact you wish to call, then tap the phone number, and it should
start dialing.

<!--[if !supportLists]-->.<!--[endif]-->Using Siri: Bring Siri
(hold down the home key) and say, "call num" where "num" is the
phone number. Speak clearly. Or, if the phone number is in the
address book, say, "call someone" where "someone" is the name of
the
contact.

Once you start a call using any of these methods, double tap the
screen with two fingers to end a call.

Note that Siri works only on iPhone 4S. A similar method exists for
iPhone 3GS and 4.

Cheers,

Joseph

Hi,

I am wondering first how to answer and end calls using my phone?

I forget how to do this easily with my iPhone 4 s?

Then I am also wondering using the native facebook for iPhone app
if there is a way to have location turned on so you can check in to
places without the app showing your location when you post anything.
