Smart Bluetooth Headset FREE for Android
The first and only app that lets you remap the buttons of your Bluetooth headset!
Please help to translate the app in your language: https://poeditor.com/join/project/NEACfPnAVC
Don't forget to manually enable remapping from the notification menu. This is a limitation of the FREE version!
Please rate, comment and contact me BY EMAIL if you have any problems with the app or want to request a new feature (communication does not work so well with comments) =)
Most Bluetooth headsets have buttons which can only do 2 things - call last dialed number and start voice command. Both are pretty useless. Using SmartHeadset you can remap the buttons of your Bluetooth headset to do more useful things - like controlling a media player, telling you the time or starting a voice assistant! This way you can play/pause and rewind your music or audiobook or control your phone from your bluetooth headset!
Attention
- Turn Bluetooth off and back on (or vice versa) on the first run of this app in order to initialize it correctly. You only need to do this once.
- Remember to turn off bluetooth before uninstalling this app in order to finalize it correctly.
Main features
- Play/pause and rewind a media player using your Bluetooth headset buttons
- Say time (using a pre-installed text-to-speech (TTS) engine)
- Start a voice assistant using your Bluetooth headset buttons
- Tasker integration!
- Quickly switch remapping on and off to place calls or use a voice dialer Now phone calls are possible even when remapping is active!
- Quickly switch the controlled media player
- Automatically turn off Bluetooth after headset disconnect to save energy and fuss
Known issues and permissions
The functionality of this app is not supported natively by Android. Therefore it uses several workarounds.
- There will be a "*" or "*1" entry in your phone log when the app is active. Ignore it, it will be deleted on headset disconnect. It makes it possible to make phone calls even when remapping is active. (This requires the "reroute outgoing calls", "read call log" and "write call log" permission).
- Play/pause resp. rewind might not work at every Bluetooth headset key press. This is an Android issue :(
This app gathers no data about you and even has no connection to the internet.
Nice app it does what it says. However, its useless if screen lock is used. I don't see a way around the screen lock. Am I missing something?? Also the UI could use some work, specially since there is a paid version of this app as well.
Very good apps ever....i really like it,audio very clear and its easy to use.
App would be fantastic if there was not such an awful delay in audio starting back up on headset when using this. I use it for audio books at work and when I have to quick pause then play again it ends up making me miss like 5 seconds of audio and have to pull my phone out anyways. Instantly making the app useless for me. Fix and 5 stars plus purchase. Respond that you are at least working on it and I'll raise by 1 star.
The app quit working for me with an update and I emailed the developer and he fixed it in 12 hours! Great response time! I use this app to play and pause my podcasts (using the PocketCasts app) with my Plantronics M50 on my Samsung Note 3. I use it while rocking my baby to sleep when I have both hands on the baby, I can just bump the button with my shoulder to start and stop the podcast!
Complete crap. Horrible horrid crap of an app. Doesn't stop the good D@mn redial on a double click
So Stupid Not Working
Didn't work properly as still performed last number redial on double click regardless of settings selected
I am very satisfied with the service. Very good app. I just love it .
Does not solve my issue of disabling the redialer on my Bluetooth headset.
Works just fine. I thought at first it didn't but after contacting the developer and getting a speedy response, it turned out to be user error. I hadn't pressed 'Enable' in the notification. Now it does what it says and it's solved my redial problem. The ability to invoke Google Now with the lockscreen on is also very useful. So of course I bought the paid version. Rooted Note 4 with stock 5.0.1
Works on my Smart ultra 6 but everytime I use the redial function which has been remapped to start google now, i get "connection problem or invalid MMI code" error. Can this be fixed?
I try with many app. Never works. Do you have video to explain how to make initial setup? My phone: Nexus 4 Android 4.4
TTS states remapping is active then headset connected but it's not - still have to manually enable it in the drawer. Then when trying to activate the voice assistant, it only works about 20% of the time.
Previous problem fixed. Works exactly as it should
Does what it says. It would be awesome if it could notify me when it's really enabled in order to avoid turning Bluetooth on and off all the time
It's best app for bt headset i have ever seen... how can i make one button of headset pauss-play and first forword and reverse forword..?.can i use volume button to do these of them?
How do you uninstall this crap?
Works perfectly
My Bluetooth headset has a really touchy redial button and I was constantly redialing people that I didn't intend to. This app works perfectly for stopping that from happening. I was happy to throw a dollar at this just for the peace of mind of not accidentally phoning people from the coffee shop line while trying to pause my music.
My phone ignores a long press of the headset button, so I couldn't get a voice assist to run. This app allows me to remap the double click to run voice assist. Brilliant. Only 4 stars because I get an error popup when I use it. It works fine, despite that.
Useful ! With samsung galaxy alpha + Car + Avantree cara 2 apt-x bluetooth receiver having no next button. After all the system limits and errors its useful for next song with double click of receiver button and ... I wish there be an option titled "Rewind twice in succession [ ]".
Doesn't work on Nexus 5 Marshmallow rooted

Nice
I've downloaded a lot of apps in search of a solution to this issue. This one works. I only use this to redirect the dialer button to Tasker, but it's perfect for that on my less-than-common phone (BLU Studio X). The dev is a wizard. Bravo.
Great app! Finally got my LG G3 voice dial to work with the remap. LG's do not provide bluetooth voice dialling into their phone which is very sad. But after trying numerous apps, this one seemed to work. Thanks!
Disabled redial on Maxx. I don't find the other options particularly useful, and I'm not sure it needs a "full" version
It doesn't work on the Huawei y330

Worked for a time and then stopped working.
Tried it and found that it does not do what i need. After uninstalling regular "redial" clicks result in "USSD code running...", after which an error message pops out. Now have to find out how to fix this. Beware.
Don't working
However whatever other action I choose for the redial button (even no action) my music starts playing from the phone instead of the headset and I need to turn off and on the headset to fix. If this is fixed I will buy the full version
It doesn't work on the gs3, and yes I know my phone is getting old and unsupported. That's why I didn't give 1 star
Disables remapping everytime headset is disconnected/reconnected. I then have go to notifications and enable remapping. I will improve my rating once you fix that, without which its of no use to me
Its great

I have an LG G2 and there is no way to make call button on BT headset do anything. Gratz LG for that! However double clicking it redials last number and this app can redirect redail to Google Now which solves my problem. Bad thing is it also disables the lock screen, does not work after phone restart, and seems erratic without lockscreen access.
I like it, but please add an option to disable the drop down menu "Chose player / Disable remapping" for 5 stars.
