    I guess this will be true since Display settings has been updated by nokia before lumia Cyan.

    For how it works. I guess it will only be applicable at the lock screen? For there is no empty space at the start screen.

    AFAIK display settings has nothing to do with tapping, that would go under touch settings.

    Double tap to power off would be nice.
    I would always like to have a small button appeared on the screen to quickly lock my screen. There are apps out there which pins a tile on your start screen and if you press it the screen gets locked. But id like to have a button which will be always visible in every window and it will be moveable.
    What do you think guys?

    Wouldn't it be part of the Touch settings, not Display?

    A not-so-essential feature for me then..i don't turn off my phone too often..unwanted/accidental shut downs may happen if double tap will be used as a trigger..

    Yes i know :P but as long as the features are good who cares if its iphone-ish or android-ish.
    Some common features will always be similar to the other OSes. EVERYTHING can't be different :)
    Some ppl go screaming like "heyy its from ios! Heyy its from android! Hah copy cats!" They seem so immature!
    I'm not saying it to you Albertdon, I'm saying it in general, plz dnt get me wrong.

    This makes no sense because a single tap performs an action. If the phone now has to wait to perform a touch action because it has to see if a second tap is coming, that's going to slow the UI actions or app launching down. One tap on the lock screen also bounces the lock screen. I just don't see how double-tap to turn off makes sense.

    Quite right. I don't need double tap to off. By the way, how hard is it to reach the power button and press it. Or maybe set screen off limit to 30 seconds, it will automatically be off.

    what I actually wants is double tap to (un)lock using the Start button.

    Now that's something that I can get behind, just having the option to bypass the lock screen completely sometimes (but still pin code of course).

    I don't see myself EVER using that feature.
    EVER.

    I rarely turn off my phone, and when I do, why wouldn't I just hold the power key (look at the name, that's what's the whole intention of it).
    Plus there would be accidental shutdowns probably.
