Description

A music control widget based on Swipe Bluetooth Music Controls (based on Bluetooth Music Controls). By operating as a widget, you can control music without leaving your current app (e.g. on a run, bike ride or just watching the clock).

Usage

Swipe down to enable - note the icon changes from blue to orange, indicating it's listening for your instruction. Then drag up/down for volume, left/right for previous and next and tap for play/pause.

All other watch interaction is disabled for 3 seconds, to prevent clashing taps/drags - this period is extended as you continue to alter the volume, play/pause and jump between tracks.

Requires espruino firmware > 2v17 to avoid event handler clashes.

Setup / Technical details

Note that HID must be enabled in settings. Then provided you're paired with your phone/computer, the widget icon will appear and you can control music from your clock face!

The app disables all other drag and tap handlers while this widget is "active" (in a similar manner to backswipe and lightswitch).
