Description

From the listing uploaded by “griff”.

If you plug in your headphones, wouldn't you want Android to know your favorite headphone apps? Now it can! Easily assign apps to launch as soon as you plug in your headphones! Simply start the app once and assign your apps. Now you're all set! Easily pick from multiple apps or a single default app! Additionally, you can adjust the volume and add apps to a blacklist. The blacklist will prevent the headphone actions when specific apps are in the current foreground. Also includes an in app purchase to present a different dialog when headphones are disconnected! PLEASE NOTE: On some android devices a notification will run in the background informing you that Headphone Connect is running, to disable this notification look under Headphone Connect on the app manager screen (the same screen you would uninstall an app on) and uncheck notifications from Headphone Connect. That will allow the service to run without spamming the notification. ================================================================================= We love to hear from our users!
