My phone, LG V20, is an amazing phone and it has a feature where I can double tap the screen to wake it up or initiate the sleep mode. Unfortunately, that means that it is prone to turning on when it is my shirt pocket. This app removes that issue. Thank you.

Doesn't work! Installed it recently but last night rubbish text messages were automatically sent from my phone. I thought this app would've prevented that happening?!
