About

When a headset is plugged in, Headphone detector for Vanilla Music opens Vanilla Music automatically. It listens for the corresponding Android device event and connects that event to the music player through Android’s broadcast mechanism. This lets people who already use Vanilla Music move from connecting headphones to opening their player without selecting it manually.

The detector has one focused job: it watches for headset connections and launches the existing Vanilla Music app. It does not include a music library or its own playback interface, so songs and playback controls remain in Vanilla Music. That event-based behavior suits listeners who want their usual player to appear as soon as they connect a headset.

Vanilla Music must be installed separately, and the detector must be started at least once so its persistent background service can run. It is an Android application with Universal architecture, and current version 1.7 is released under an open-source license. The software is intended for people who already rely on Vanilla Music and want headset connection detection to trigger it automatically.

Architecture: Universal
