Swipe Control: Control Music Playback Using Gestures

Posted November 30, 2009 at 10:24am by iClarified · 7770 views
Swipe Control, an iPhone/iPod utility which allows you to control your music playback using swipes, has been added to Cydia.

If you swipe up/down, it will change the volume, if you swipe left/right, it will skip to the next or previous song, and a tap will play/pause.

How to use:
* Swipe Left: Previous song
* Swipe Right: Next Song
* Swipe Up/Down: Adjust Volume

When you press the Info button, on the bottom right, the app shows the settings:
* Volume Sensitivity: The higher the value, the more the volume will change when you slide your finger.
* Side Gestures Sensitivity: If the side swipe isn't longer than the value from this slider, it won't change the song.
* Gestures: Enable/disable some the volume and next/prev gestures.
* Play/Pause: Single Tap will enable/disable the Play/Pause functions. If double tap is enabled, it will require a double tap to Play/Pause.
* Invert Gestures: This will invert some gestures, I think it's quite obvious what it does.

You can download Swipe Control from the Big Boss Cydia repository.
