Screen lock is failing

Screen lock using double tap in the alphabetical menu is not working. I restarted the application, checked the Accessibility permissions, but the problem persists.

    Thanks for reporting! Two things are worth ruling out first: the gesture has its own switch under Niagara Launcher's settings > Features > Quick lock gesture, and the feature needs an active Niagara Pro. If either of those is off, the double tap stays silent even with accessibility access granted.

    If the toggle is on and the gesture worked before but stopped after a while, that matches this report: Double tap alphabet to lock isn't working. Upvoting there keeps you in the loop, and it tells us how many people are hitting it.

    Everything about the feature, including the exact accessibility steps: Double Tap to Sleep.
