Uncle D, 24 Jan 2021Don't be so paranoid, only you name Apple in this topic 😬Because annoying Android fanboys are always raving about everything, but when Apple has something first they go oddly quiet. I just find that absolutely hilarious.

"Back in February, we detailed a hidden feature in the Pixel’s SystemUI app called “Columbus” — a new gesture mechanism created by Google that utilizes sensor data from the gyroscope and the accelerometer to detect taps on the back of select Pixel phones...."
Yeah, so looks like it's just the gyroscope and accelerometer.

"whether the feature will be made available for all phones"
How does my phone know I am tapping on its back? Is there a hidden sensor there that's been collecting data?
