Hi guys!
Just joined the forums to hopefully become a long time user! I hope this is the right place to ask this question
Anyways, My HTC ONE M8 has a gesture launch feature that allows you to unlock it after picking it up, holding it in the portrait position, and then double tapping the screen. This feature does not work in landscape mode, however. Not only that, but the phone requires a change in it's position to unlock. This is probably because you would end up unlocking it while its in your pocket often.
The reason I need an app like this is because I have a spot on my dash where I place my phone while driving. But when the phone is in this position, it is hard to reach the power button without knocking it off its stand.
So I need an app that will:
1. Allow me to unlock the phone while it is in its SCREEN OFF state.
2.Allow the unlocking of the phone in landscape mode WITHOUT the need to rotate, move, or vibrate it.
3.Allow the unlocking of the phone with a simple gesture like a tap, I would prefer not to have predefined shapes or passwords to input. Because that would be distracting!
4. Lastly, it would be beneficial to only have this app work when plugged in. But is not required. This could be achieved in Tasker I believe by launching the app only when the phone is charging.
Thanks to all who can help.
