LZYDD BT Wireless Media Music Remote Control Camera Shutter for iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch, iOS and Android Smartphone Tablet Devices Windows 8.1

5 stars so far. Bluetooth connected easily and it charges fast. I drive an old car without Bluetooth stereo so this works great to play music while driving. Controls work exactly as promised and it even comes with a little lanyard so I can attach to my keychain. Definitely worth the reasonable price! Will be putting it to a real test on my next commute day as that is about 2 hours each way.

I am a die-hard iPod user. I have had one clipped to my shirt for 5+ years. I got hearing aids and needed to play my mp3 files from my phone instead of my iPod. I hear the audio via the phone Bluetooth that connects to my hearing aids. The problem is trying to control the music/audiobook player with a phone is horrid. With a bunch of research, I purchased this sweet little "Wireless Media Music Remote Control ". What I needed was something that would allow me to start and stop the audio at the push of a button. It works wonderfully! You have to keep in mind that the controller cannot read minds. You have to open the music player first. Then the buttons work perfectly. Every once in a while, it activates my "hey google" feature instead. What can you expect when the phone has hundreds of programs and this little clicker sends a signal to the phone that says "start" or "stop" - how does the phone know what I want? With that very minor issue, it is still the best solution. I can listen to audiobooks with my phone and start/stop anytime, advance forward/reverse 10 seconds with a click. When I need to have a conversation with people in the room I click stop. When the conversation ends, I click start - no one is the wiser that I have a book playing. For me, I have the clicker hanging with a string around my neck. Easy Peezy. Oh, one more thing - I do not use the native player that came with my phone, I downloaded (from the play store) "Smart AudioBook Player." It took a little learning but it is powerful and makes everything seamless. One other benefit is this clicker does work with other phone features like taking pictures and controlling other players (Netflix, youtube, prime, etc).

I got this to use as a remote for media controls on my Windows PC. It gets the job done, though not without some minor hiccups. The media playback and volume controls work as expected. The camera shutter doesn't work on Windows but I didn't expect or need it to. The only issue is sometimes I have to press a button multiple times for it to work. It seems more like a connectivity issue than a problem with the actual buttons. If multiple presses fail, turning if off/on usually fixes the issue. The buttons are a bit on the small side and there isn't any texture to them, so you have to remember placement. Not a big deal but something that could be improved. Overall, I'm pleased with this remote. It does what I need it to do and costs less than some similar products.

My use case for this item is very simple: I wanted to be able to pause/skip podcasts in the dark while in bed getting ready to sleep. The tactile buttons allow me to control the playback without dealing with the bright screen. With that said, everything worked perfectly. Then after a little more than one month of being a happy camper with this, it started to act very strangely. At first when I used it at night (as described), nothing happened. So I thought maybe the charge was low so I fully charged it. Afterward, I used the remote while looking at the phone and then I realized that the buttons started to do different things. For example, pressing the play/pause button started to trigger different press on the player. Volume changes caused text to be selected (in the podcast description). Then I thought, maybe I needed to restart the phone and that didn't fix the problem. If you think perhaps it's because of a phone update, that isn't it because between when the device was working fine to when it's not, no update was applied. The gist of it is, the remote did not die (as that's less surprising) but just started to do different things when the buttons are pressed. Action Taken: Powered off/on the remote, fully charged the remote, restarted phone. and forget remote on phone and resynced the remote. I think I've exhausted all the possible things you can do to resolve the problem.

I have a newer Pixel Android phone. I've tried several remotes - none worked correctly. I was mainly looking for a remote to control my audio apps so when on my winter walks I could change tracks, volume, etc. with my hands in my pockets. This works perfectly. Every control works. When the camera app is active the shutter control works as well. Big plus is that it's rechargeable. So I'll say it's fully compatible with many models. I like the size - about 2.5x1.25 inches. Build quality feels a bit cheap but it feels good enough.

I read a review, and bought it. The review had a question: " Is it soft buttons"? The answer was yes. So I assumed ones like a TV remote, soft and quiet. They are NOT. they are clickers.! I bought this for a specific reason, mine is for a cellphone (Samsung S9) to listen to music at night in bed. The issues with this one is that it is noisy to the wife, as she can hear the clicks. The buttons are so flush with the case that it is difficult to find the right ones with your fingers. My whole purpose was to relax and be able to pause, select tracks and volume without the need to look, or turn a light on. I have to find a way to glue something to the buttons to raise them a little just to be able to feel them. But that is for my specific use. The remote itself works well, easy to connect to Cellphone via blue tooth, and works as described. I gave it less stars because of the answer about the buttons. You can judge for yourself with this review though. Yes, it works, Yes it is as described, but not so with the buttons. They work though. For normal in the light use, and for camera shutter, it is perfect! It is rechargeable. That is ok, but would have rather had a lithium watch battery in there. Then I can easily change it. When the rechargeable battery goes, you have to either find one to replace it and do some disassembly and soldering, or buy a new item.

This thing works great. I have had 2 (they don't like being stepped on). It shows up as a keyboard device with multi-media keys. I was surprised to discover it would control random music playing apps/browsers on a PC. I bought it to control the music on my phone while riding a motorcycle but discovered it was so convenient I just always have it hanging from a belt loop. My biggest complaint is that the buttons aren't raised enough to feel them through gloves. Note that the charging port is USB-Micro not USB-C but I have only needed to charge it every couple months and I have had it since phones used the same port.

Worked great until it didn't. I've had this for a year and 2 days. Worked perfectly at first, easy connection and functionality. Didn't use it super often, maybe a few times a month. Eventually started having issues with it connecting and staying connected. 2 days ago I went to use it again and it wouldn't connect again. Fine. Forget the device, reconnect it as usual. Now all of a sudden my phone thinks it's a stylus instead of a keyboard? The volume buttons swipe up and down on my screen and the shutter and track buttons click. Can't figure out any way to fix it, so now I'm stuck with a remote that connects fine but doesn't do what it's supposed to. Wild. No way to contact manufacturer for troubleshooting.

This product is absolute good, my biggest gripe are the buttons, they should have a higher position so you can differentiate them but the response time is fast and even if it goes to sleep to save battery, it won't take much to wake it up.

Works well - at a good price

This does work when it whimsically desires. And it is the mechanism I was looking for, although higher profile buttons would be nice so I can feel them better without looking at them. Unfortunately it runs out of battery super fast. Or something? I can't actually tell what it's doing. All I know is when I turn it on and try to use it, it takes a minute to connect, then it might work briefly, but when I try to use it 15 minutes later, it has to wake up (or something?), after which it may or may not work at all, regardless of whatever the little red or blue light is trying to say. I've already spent too much time pushing buttons, waiting for something to happen but nothing does. It's faster to just pull out my phone the old fashion way.

Like: rechargeable battery, works as described. Dislike: pricier than most but works very well.

After searching and trying different similar items that didn't work, this one FINALLY works like a charm, I am 100% happy with it. May even buy the extended warranty for it
