How to Improve Smartwatch Battery Life

Control Music by Pressing Physical Buttons on Samsung Galaxy Watch 4. Hey, guys in this post I am going to discuss a new app. With this app, you can change the music and perform specific actions with the Samsung Galaxy Watch 4. This can be really useful when you are sleeping at night and don’t want to light up your watch. At the same time, you can change tracks by pressing the physical buttons on the watch. The Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 has been a great watch and this feature will also work with other Samsung Watches as well including the Samsung Galaxy 5 and 6 series as well.

Change Tracks on the Watch with physical buttons

As you all know the Samsung Galaxy was 4 comes with a lot of features. You can change or control the music with the help of Physical Buttons on the Samsung Galaxy Watch 4. With every click of a button, you can change tracks and do some other functions with the help of the watch.

How to do this.

So to do this you need to download one app on your phone and the Samsung Galaxy Watch 4. The app’s name is PowerAmp Wear Control

Configure a few More Settings

Once the installation is done now you have to come to the PowerAmp Wear Control App and assign the keys for the first action and the second action. The first action is nothing but the Action that will be performed by the first key press, And the second action is the action that will be performed by pressing the second key in the Samsung Galaxy Watch 4. You can also swap this if you want to swap the actions in there.

Now again you need to come to the settings of the Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 and then you need to come to the advanced features, once there you need to select Customise Buttons and then select Second Action/First Action.

Once you select Second Action, whatever action you have selected, it will be performed when you press the key. The same thing is valid for the first action as well.

Please note this will only work with the Poweramp music player because this is a PowerAmp music player feature. Here, I have selected the next track as the second action so whenever the Button is pressed the second action will be executed which is going to the next track. If you want to go to the previous track you have to select the previous track as the second action in the PowerAmp Wear Control App.

You can also do multiple things by pressing the buttons

Play/Pause
Next Track
Previous Track
Dummy

Also please note this will only work when you will be double pressing the buttons in the Watch

Time To See the Results

Once everything is configured, whenever you press the physical key on the Samsung Galaxy watch 4 you will be able to see that the music will be changed. This will only happen when you will be playing the music via the Poweramp music player obviously. You can configure other actions as well like going to the previous track. Also playing and pausing the music.
