Player Compatibility List:

Any Music app that supports "Headset Controls" works with Wave Control, including all the most popular apps.

Some Notes:

  • Tip for the hover gesture: if you move your hand away too quickly, it'll register as a wave
  • After an action, there is a delay before another gesture will be registered
  • Practice your wave techniques in the "Last Action" section
  • If you're getting another player responding to the commands, use the Set Target Media App setting

*IMPORTANT*

The sensor may behave differently on different phones due to hardware differences. If you encounter a problem, please email me instead of leaving a negative review so that I can address it.
