Clap Control

About Clap Control Android App

Following situation:
You are at home on the couch, your smartphone is connected to your HiFi system. A track is playing and you don't like it...what now? It's simple! Clap! Just clap your hands together and the next track will play without even touching the phone! :)


Clap Control makes it possible to control your music through simply clapping the hands together. You can adjust the sensitivity of the phones micro and save the value as profile. In addition you can set different actions depending on the amount of claps you did, e.g. pausing the music.



You are still not convinced? Let's get inspired by some other use cases:


At riding the bike:
- you can control your music not only through claps, but also by slightly knocking the phone when it's in your pocket


At cooking:
- never touch your phone again with filthy hands or have to wash and dry them to skip the music


At driving the car:
- be able to keep your eyes on the street at every time


Under the shower
- the reason for developing the app by the way


UPDATE:
I've implemented a new method (method 3) to control your music app. When you go to the settings and choose method 3, Clap Control probably will be able to control every music app you want. Unfortunately it has a downside. Unlike to the other methods Clap Control has to be in the foreground to be able to control your music. That means you must not leave the app nor lock the screen. Because of that I've implemented my own 'lockscreen' which can be activated by another button in the action bar. You can deactivate the lockscreen by a simple swipe gesture.
