Is there a way to launch and control apps on my Note Edge using the Gear S? I have a few apps like Beyond pod and Google Play that I would really like to launch and control while running. The only app that I see that I can launch and control is the Milk app but it's not the best app for listening to music.
You can set the music player to control songs from your watch or your phone. In my car I have music on a USB stick. Once paired with my Gear S, I can also use it to forward etc. From the music app, click the 3 dots in the upper right corner, select mobile device or gear.
Thanks! How do I launch Google Music using the watch? I can only launch Milk using my watch but would prefer using other music apps without having to pull my phone out of my pocket while driving.
You can launch apps on your phone using appsgo app from the watch

Hey,
I got my Samsung Galaxy S2 on my BMW 120d linked via bluetooth. But, in contact to my Blackberry, I cannot control the player with the car (I am using Mort Player). So does anyone have a good idea for a good music player that can be controlled from my car?
Best regards
Christian
I have a SGSII and a BMW F30 with the Bluetooth enabled and have been doing a bit of experimenting.
The screen shows the artist, track, album info and I can use the car controls to skip tracks in a playlist or album but I can't select a new playlist or album. The app being used needs to be a system app I think and the only system app. When I used an earlier version of RevolutionRemix with two music apps the last played track from one app would show on the screen but the controls would control the other app!
I am now using the GalaxyMod ROM which comes with the stock Samsung music app. I hate the app but it does allow you to skip tracks using the car controls. I froze the app and installed Google Play Music which I converted to a system app and that too allowed you to skip tracks.
In terms of functionality in the car the stock Samsung app has a slight advantage in that the screen shows the track number and total number of tracks in the selected playlist whereas this isn't shown with the Google app.
However, because of the stupid way the Samsung app sets the albums up, when you click on an artist you are shown every track for each album. If you select a track, the track number and total number of tracks will be based on that track's position within the list of all tracks by that artist.
I would be really keen to know if there is another music app that can be used as a system app that would allow extra functionality. I doubt we will be able to browse songs any time soon but would be nice to have track number and total number of tracks.
Hello,
I'm using deezer Android app to listen to music over Bluetooth. This is working fine for some times. After a while the app only streams music but the controls (play, pause, forward) lost its focus to the app. If I want to pause a song, the Android internal musicplayer starts playing.
Is there an app or any possibility to return the controls to my deezer app ?
(I have root access)
The OS is a cyanogenMod with android 4.2.2
Alternative apps like a Deezer
But I'm using a deezer pay-account. Furthermore last.fm or sportify got the same problem, I tested it.
Hey XDA-Developers Community!
I've got a Problem regarding the Voice Control Features for Music Playback on Android Wear.
I often use it to quickly start listening to Music of a certain Artist, by saying something like: play [artist].
But when doing this on my Moto 360 it always launches the SoundCloud app and searches for the corresponding Artist there.
However, I want this to be done with Google Play Music or the Music app provided by CM11.
When using Google Now on my Phone (LG G3 running CM11) I can choose which app should be used for Playback and it always uses my Preset.
I have "Music Playback" set to Play Music in the Android Wear Application and reset any default Actions in the app Directory of the Phone Settings.
I hope that someone maybe had the same Issue and/or knows a Way around it.
Greetings from Germany and I wish you all an awesome (hopefully sunny) Sunday!
Hi all,
I have an Android Headunit which is currently using the default music app. I'm looking for another one that has more functions.
When the unit starts up it will generally run the last running app which would normally be the music app. with the music app it will auto start playing again.
I'm basically looking for a decent music app that will auto start when opened. As well one that has album cover and has the random music function option.
I've played around with Tasker to play the music when the app runs but this won't work when the head unit auto starts the app.
Thanks
i think many music apps can do that, when you open the app the music starts, all you need is to set in the setting.
i search for you online, there's 10 best music apps, but i don't know whether i can put the link in the forum. try this：

if not, please tell me i will delete it immediately!!
the players i've tried don't seem to have that setting. The last one was Poweramp which seems to only auto start if headphones are plugged in.
Hello,
I ditched my iPhone 6s Plus for a Oneplus 3, but have some questions:
- I have Nova Launcher installed. When listening to music using Spotify and tapping on "Close all apps", I dont want it to close Spotify as it is playing music.
- I have Jacks Music Widget installed. I want it to to open Spotify when tapping on it (I configured it this way in Settings), but it always opens Tidal.
Thanks for help!

Spotify has it's own widget if you want to use it.
