Tip: double-tap the back of your iPhone to call your main bot
You want the bot on a call without unlocking, opening the app, or hunting the Action button.
What hurt
@ananthp_ maps iPhone Back Tap (Accessibility → Touch → Back Tap) so a double-tap on the back starts a call to his main Grok Bot ("Obi-wan"). Setup takes about two minutes; video walkthrough in the post. Distinct from the Action-button tip. Tip only. Not affiliated with xAI.
What to install or create
Settings → Accessibility → Touch → Back Tap → Double Tap → Shortcut that calls your bot.
Bots
No new bot. Follow the first-run steps.
Plugins
None on day one. Follow the first-run steps.
Routines
None on the first run. Watch one manual pass first.
The prompt
This is a tip, not a pasteable system prompt. The author did not publish one. Follow the first-run steps.
First run
- 1Read https://x.com/ananthp_/status/2115934160695214422 (credit @ananthp_; video in post).
- 2On iPhone: Settings → Accessibility → Touch → Back Tap → Double Tap.
- 3Pick or create a Shortcut that starts a call / opens a call to your main Grok Bot.
- 4Assign that Shortcut to Double Tap; leave Triple Tap empty if you do not need it.
- 5Lock the phone and double-tap the back to confirm the call connects.
Approval fence
You still decide what the bot may do on the call; map only the dial shortcut.
What to tweak
Steal Back Tap → call bot. Works even without an Action button.
