Android · wired 3.5 mm and USB-C earphones
Your earphone buttons, your rules.
Double-press for the next track, hold for your assistant, tap volume twice to skip back. JackKey turns the three buttons on your wired earphones into the controls you actually want, so you don’t have to reach for the phone.
1×, 2×, 3× and hold
Twelve gestures across centre, volume up and volume down. Your phone’s own volume keys stay normal.
Private by design
No account, no tracking, no ads. Nothing leaves your phone.
