I know everyone out there with an iPhone will come back with they already knew this feature existed, but I was amazed when I found it today, after about 7 years of iPhone usage. Something new to play with.
Double and triple tap on the back of the iPhone can be selectively enabled and configured to perform a multitude of different actions, such as enable and disable accessability features, take a screen shot, or even execute a user defined shortcut.
Just in case there were any iPhone users out there that didn’t already know this feature existed, go to Settings/Accessablity/Touch/ and scroll to the bottom to find Back Tap.
What other great secret features are lurking out there?

I use double tap to trigger the Control Center and triple tap to take a screen shot
