VERY GOOD User Rating

Control your favorite mobile music player from your watch.

Offers a range of features and a more sophisticated user interface compared to the default controller, with compatibility across various music players. It also introduces a new music watch face.

This application functions under a trial period of 4 days, after which users are required to obtain a license through the mobile app.

  • Watch app and accompanying notifications allow you to execute actions like Play/Pause, Previous, Next, Volume-Up, Volume-Down. The experimental Play... feature enables playback in any supported App or initiates a Playlist.
  • Diverse user interface options include Sparse for activities like running and walking, and Compact for general use. Voice Command mode permits hands-free control while driving or cycling, for tasks like skipping tracks, starting playlists, or adjusting volume. For instance, simply say, "OK Google; Start Music Controller," followed by commands such as "Turn it up." The display style of full-screen notifications can be altered through phone settings.

HOW TO USE:

  1. Grant NOTIFICATION LISTENING PERMISSION on your phone.
  2. Commence playing music!

The watch app can be activated manually or by voice command: "Ok Google, Start Music Controller" (note: voice commands will briefly pause your music).

Song title and artist details are displayed where available. Album artwork is showcased for KitKat and newer versions; older device users may have access to album art solely for music stored on mobiles. Track progress and additional information like BPM are exhibited if accessible.

Compatibility has been validated with various music players including Android stock player, Google Music Player, Rocket Player, PlayerPro, SoundCloud (My Cloud Player is recommended), MediaMonkey, doubleTwist, Spotify, and others. Different media players may trigger unintentionally when using the watch; kindly verify compatibility prior to acquiring the license.

  • The native Android Wear Music Card might appear alongside this app and cannot be dismissed. This app strives to facilitate user convenience by placing its card above the standard one. Notifications are made persistent but can be closed using the Close action button. Avoid using Block App as it conceals this app's notifications until re-enabled in the Android Wear App.
  • Supports Yatse XBMC remote control along with other potential compatible apps such as Chromecast.

Advanced settings are accessible for customizing functionality to cater to various devices and applications. It also integrates with Tasker/Locale for actions like starting the app or notification and playback control when Bluetooth accessories are connected.

Suitable for both square and round watches; exclusively supports Android Wear watches. This app does not play music stored directly on the watch and may have limited compatibility with services like Napster or Rhapsody.
