What are the default settings for Tap Touch?
Both your left and right earbuds feature a sensor that allows you to control the behaviour of your earbuds without using the App on your mobile device. They respond to a firm touch of your finger.
The default controls are:
TAP TOUCH CONTROL | DEFAULT ACTION(S) | DEFAULT ACTION ON PHONE CALL |
Left Tap |
Play/Pause audio |
Answer incoming phone call |
Left Double Tap |
Activate Siri – Google Now | |
Left Long Tap |
Reject / hang up call | |
Right Tap |
World On / Off | |
Right Double Tap |
Activate Siri / Google Now | |
Right Long Tap | Switch between favourite locations |
Once you are familiar with the Tap Touch settings and use of your earbuds, you can configure the tap-touch controls to alternative actions based upon how you most use your IQbuds and which features you want to have accessible with a tap touch.
How do I customize the Custom Tap Touch on IQbuds2 MAX?
Once you are familiar with using your IQbuds, you will be able to identify your most used controls.
For example, if you mostly listen to music, you may use the Previous / Next Track controls more than you use Siri. It is possible to re-assign the Tap Touch on the earbuds from the default to your favourites.
To customize your tap-touch controls:
- Select the Tap Touch option from the bottom menu of the App while wearing your paired IQbuds. A list of Tap Touch controls is displayed.
- Select the action for each control from the list. The table below shows the default controls, and the alternative actions you can assign to those controls.
