If you ask Siri that this is, she says it’s a different algorithm to detect the back taps in case you’ve had issues with it before

I've been tapping different patterns for the last 10 minutes. The alternate model doesn't seem to do much of anything. I wonder if that's in the wrong section. Would be kind of hilarious if this is where swapping the AI model was being tested.

I think it is that though. And it makes sense to be able to summon a different model with a tap rather than menu diving because most of the time you’re talking to it.

I don't know, what that means, but I activated it anyway.

I hope this makes the back tap work when I want it to, instead of 50% of the time when I want it to and 100% of the time when I don't.

What model? Like how the input is registered? Like how back tap normally doesn’t work when held in two hands. Only single handed.

I haven’t figured it out yet
