Double tap to wake up issue

My last Xperia z3 was working perfectly with the double tap to wake up but since I have my new Xperia X the double taping to wake up doesn't work correctly. It forces me every time to tap six or seven taps till wake up. Note that :it happens with\without screen protector. I tried switch the double tap to wake up on\off several times and I also tried restarting my device several times and nothing changed??

Hi @XxXxXxX, I'm sorry to hear this.

If you have enabled Tap to wake up, and you experience that your device sometimes doesn't wake up when you tap on it, try these steps one after the other. Check whether the problem was solved after each step, before trying the next one.

  • Delay tapping the screen until it has been turned off for some seconds.
  • Tap the centre of the screen, approximately 1 cm from the edges.
  • Place the device in your hand and double tap the screen.
  • Try to double tap slowly.
  • Tap the screen three times.
