Xcover 4s xcover key needs screen on now

Easyrider — Fri, 14 Aug 2020 11:49:28 GMT

Hi, today updated my xcover 4s..I loved it as I can turn on torch with one press of xcover key making it very handy for quick access...now I must have screen on first...so it's now 2 differant presses needed. Also a longer press no longer activates my other chosen app unless screen is on...is there a workaround please? Thanks

I've noticed the same problem and I think it's a real annoying bug that needs to be solved ASAP.

It totally defeats the purpose of having a quick access button if it doesn't provide quick access.

SOLVED! I've also filed a bug report concerning non working volume buttons when using FM radio

SOLVED!!!

I found out there's a setting somewhere hidden in the configuration options that allows you to set the quick access button to be functional from the lock-screen.
