It should be noted that the Back Tap function is only accessible on iPhone 8 or later. Now, according to the source, owners of Samsung Galaxy devices will also be able to use this function if their UI is based on Android 13.

Users of Samsung Galaxy smartphones may now "employ side buttons, back taps, and screen pushes to swiftly perform important activities," according to website IceUniverse. You may create your own settings menu, alter the order, conceal and group, and add settings-related shortcuts to the home screen. With Android 12 last year, Google also gave Pixel devices a similar back-tap function.
