According to this article on AppleInsider back tap works on iPhone 8 and newer. I have an iPhone 8 and the back tap option is there and works.


Settings->Accessibility->Touch->Back Tap->select Double or Triple Tap

I don't believe that is correct. From a few google searches within the last couple days, the following phones are listed as compatible:


The new accessibility feature works on the following iPhone models:

  • iPhone 8, 8 Plus
  • iPhone X
  • iPhone XS, XS Max
  • iPhone XR
  • iPhone 11, 11 Pro, 11 Pro Max.


To the OP. Go to Settings > Accessibility > Touch > Back Tap


Choose options for double tap or triple tap.
