Weird bug/feature on pixel 6 I just discovered (programming.dev)

I don't know why this is a thing but if I tap the back of my pixel 6 three times in rapid succession it begins to play my audio book on audible.

From what I can tell audible has to be open but doesn't need to be the app on the screen(for example I can start and stop it while typing this post). Also the phone has to be "on" (meaning the screen is displaying but doesn't need to be unlocked.

Is this just my phone or dies it happen on other people's phone too?

I have been trying but my email and browser open. Going to keep trying for another hour or so.

Turns of it was "quick tap" as mentioned in another reply. You can change what it does in the setting menu.
