Player Compatibility List:

Any Music app that supports “Headset Controls” such as these:

Spotify

Rocket Player

PowerAmp Menu -> More -> Settings -> Headset -> Respond to Headset Buttons

Pandora

last.FM

Slacker Radio

Uber Music

Samsung Music Player (Galaxy S2 and Note.. not Galaxy S, Y, Ace)

Google Music

MixZing Menu -> Settings -> Headset and Buttons -> Enable Headset Controls

.. and more!

Easy to use, just wave your hand over the sensor (usually located just next to the earpiece on your phone).

Holding it there (hover) – Pause/Resume

One wave across – Next Song

Two waves across – Previous Song

Three times – Enable/Disable the controls

*Be sure to enable Headset Button Control in your player of choice

Some Notes:

Tip for the hover gesture: if you move your hand away too quickly it’ll register a wave

After an action, there is a 1 second delay before another gesture will be registered

Practice your wave techniques by checking the “Last Action”

If you’re getting another player responding to the commands, use the Set Target Media App setting

**IMPORTANT**

The sensor WILL behave differently on different phones. I don’t have the resources to test every phone. If there is a problem, please email me at marksthinktank@gmail.com and give me a chance to figure it out before leaving a bad review!

*HTC EVO 4G (erratic sensor reading cause commands to trigger on their own)
