Ratings and reviews

App is non-functional. Android 12 on a Pixel 3XL. The PC application for this has the remote enabled in the Integration settings section. App says connected, but none of the app actually works with one exception. If music is paused on the PC the play button on the app will work, but it will only work for this. It will not pause, skip, or any other remote function. It will only resume play. The issue persisted even after: Password was set to on or off & PC client and phone app were restarted.

Exactly what I was looking for. I prefer YTM but was about to revert to Spotify. Remote control of music on my PC is a dealbreaker. Then I found this app. I think people would be willing to pay for it, then perhaps the developer can add functionality like selecting any song rather than only current playlist being accessible. But that's a minor quibble, this is great.

A simple remote that does the job well on Android 12. And it's free! The only thing I'm noticing is that on my Pixel 5a, the pull up tray is slightly overlapping the play/pause button. Not a big deal, but just a design note. Also, feature request: would love to be able to swipe R/L to change tracks, instead of using small buttons. Thanks 👍
