Languages:
If you would like to help put Wave Control in your native language, please email me!

Player Compatibility List:
Any Music/Streaming/Video app that supports "Headset Controls"

Easy to use, just wave your hand over the sensor (usually located just next to the earpiece on your phone).
Holding it there (hover) - Pause/Resume
One wave across - Next Song
Two waves across - Previous Song
Three times - Enable/Disable the controls

*Be sure to enable Headset Button Control in your player of choice

Some Notes:
Tip for the hover gesture: if you move your hand away too quickly it'll register a wave
After an action, there is a 1 second delay before another gesture will be registered
Practice your wave techniques by checking the "Last Action"
If you're getting another player responding to the commands, use the Set Target Media App setting

**IMPORTANT**
The sensor WILL behave differently on different phones. I don't have the resources to test every phone. If there is a problem, please email me at marksthinktank@gmail.com and give me a chance to figure it out before leaving a bad review!

Incompatibility List:
*HTC EVO 4G (erratic sensor reading cause commands to trigger on their own)

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

5 ★On my Note 3 and now my Note Edge I have arrows for this app but on my partners S6 edge she has to wave to control it, which my Note 2 used to have, I want to wave not have to go this way for next that way for back and if you get it wrong the volume goes up and down, can I change it to wave?
5 ★I bought the pro verson after using the trial verson and I almost never pay for apps. Only knock against the app is disabling and enabling the controls are not very smooth and something stops itself in background
4 ★Simply it works mostly. Hover and single wave seem to work well. Beyond that, it is a bit of a crap shoot. I am sure that you could train yourself to make multiple waves work, but I haven't seen the need nor have been willing to make the effort.
4 ★I am unable to answer calls using this. I can end and reject but am not able to answer. Pls check and correct.
1 ★It used to work great, but as soon as my phone updated to Android 5.0, there is often a 10, 20, even 30 second or longer delay before it responds. Please update, I really like to use this app while driving, but right now it is useless
4 ★This app is ace! However, a big issue is the amount of battery it consumes. A brilliant idea would be a toggle ON/OFF widget...How about it Dev?
4 ★Works great. Integrates with Tasker but to a very limited level. Please add shortcuts to the options then a user can run Tasker tasks directly. As well another plugin that allows settings control......meaning a user could change the Screen On Only mode or Only When Flat modes at will. Other than that i really like this app.
1 ★Worked great on my old S3. Upgraded to an S5 and set it up accordingly, but it just seems to take several waves over the sensor to acknowledge anything, sometimes not at all. Tried many things but doesn't seem to work. Emailed dev regarding issue but haven't heard anything yet. Real shame, best feature to have. Now just a wasted paid app! Will continue to wait and hopefully a resolution will come. Otherwise I'll try my luck on XDA.
4 ★just one thing. I can't find the settings that turns wave control off after I've exited the app. I don't want it to remain in the background.
4 ★Great app but I bought the pro version hoping I could add more than one target device. Is there any future in that? Otherwise great app
4 ★Conflicts with Samsung Air gestures, and it has issues with automatically integrating with the actively running music application regardless of whether it's set as the default music app or not when the music app isn't triggered from within this app, but when it works it's amazingly useful for driving or quickly pausing when interrupted and the phone screen is off and sitting on your desk.
4 ★Thus changing to previous track action don't seem to work on aWARemote for me. It would be great if we can wave up, down to change the volume.
