iPhone 14 Pro Max Tap to Wake doesn't work sometimes

[Rodan52]

I don’t have raise to wake turned on. I did for a little while when I first got the phone but it turning on whenever I picked the phone up got really annoying so I turned it off. I have the tap to wake issue sometimes. I’ve always thought maybe I’m tapping too lightly. I have a similar issue on my AW8.

Annoying? Why would it be annoying? I don't even look at it when I pick it up unless I want to see my notifications or login. It only stays on for 5 sec.

Tap to Wake seems to be working in iOS 17 now. It’s only been 24hr so far, but it’s never worked this well for me before …

So far, everything is going well for me, too. However, I have made the experience that it usually runs well for a few days after a restart and the problem only increases after a few days. Let's see if it is better with iOS 17.

Same with my 14PM and iOS 17/17.01. Let's see if it is better with iOS 17.02.

It's happening to me also. I noticed I can't wake the screen up on the first touch nearly everytime when it remains a longer time innactive. Perhaps Apple did this on purpose to prevent unwanted touches?

Also a screen protector can reduce a touch sensitivity.
