About Media Keys

Adds a 'Media Keys' shortcut creator. ( A shortcut creator does not necessarily open like other apps... instead, install, and then go to your shortcut supporting app, like your 'home' app, and long press to add a shortcut. 'Media Keys' will show up in the list of shortcut creators. )

Creates FF,REW,Play/Pause,Stop,Next,Previous shortcuts.
(None of the music apps support Bluetooth FF & REW yet, and most don't support STOP, but PLAY/PAUSE and NEXT are commonly supported)

Support for a music player solely depends on the player author supporting Bluetooth media controls, such as those on many A2DP headphones.

It has been known to work with the following:
* built-in 'Music'
* Pandora
* Google Listen
* Rhapsody
* AudioGalaxy

May be useful with BlueDock as a connect or disconnect activity.
Or Car Dock for Big Play button, or whatever you like.

I just used this app to 'play music' from swiping up on the 'Music' app from the dock on nova launcher

I love Car Dashboard but it has no media key shortcuts, in the free version anyway. This adds them perfectly.Yeah, the icons are a bit crude but who can tell in a moving car? At least they're simple and blue.

Shame it uses non-resizable shortcuts rather than Widgets. Otherwise it's rather good.

Nice! At first I couldn't find it anywhere until I found out it wasn't a widget it was a shortcut. It would be so cool if we can customize the colors

Works great in Launcher Pro dock. Ignore people saying it doesn't work. Of course it won't open, it's a shortcut, not an app. Derp derp! ;-)

Even though IMO the buttons re pretty ugly, I was able to customize the icons. Works with pandora, tinyshark, and google music, without needing to select a player. Score!

Just wanted a dedicated key to start/pause music player like my old walkman phone. Does this from home screen perfectly

by S####:

at least with Zimly. Not Pandora or Slacker while using with your Car Dock Home v3, but I think that is an issue with the dock and not the buttons.

S70%
by S####:

Works, but keeps switching too media player rather than rhapsody...real annoying!

G70%
by G####:

Just what ive been looking for to work with mediascape. For those who dont know how to use, long press on home screen and select shortcuts.

U70%
by U####:

My brothers both use this on their Samsung Galaxy tabs but the short cuts seem to do nothing on my Nexus 4. I've tried the play/pause and the next buttons on Google Play Music, Audible, and Pandora, nothing happened with any of them. I do hear the click letting me know I tapped the shortcut though, so my phone knows I tapped it.

X70%

Works great with Pandora and with car dock v2. Makes simple music controls while driving. Love it.

by M####:

Nice idea but if you have multiple audio apps (Music, Listen, Last.fm) it gets confused and stops some while starting others.

Exactly what I was looking for... using with CarHome Ultra to control media player via shortcut. 5stars if could change look/feel!

M70%
by M####:

Great concept, but with Google Listen when you hit pause it will actually stop the podcast and loose your place. Fix this and I will up my review :)

P70%
by P####:

doesn't work with the google car home or it would be 5 stars. You have to use a custom car mode application.

Perfect with car home ultra.. use media button router to choose which app u want to open
