App is kind of useless. When it works it works but when it doesn't then it just doesn't. And doesn't work most of the time for me. It shuts off by itself and just disappears from my screen. Really bad battery drain. Would have been better off with one of the free apps.

The app crashes all the time on my LG Urbane and it lags when it is working (this is the only app on my watch). I also am using a note 5 that had android 5 and 6 installed when the app crashed on my watch....reinstalled app and still does it. Trash app

The app worked great on day 1, but the next day crashes my watch on launch every time. Uninstalling until resolved. ***Update after reinstalling app no longer crashes, but it seems it is very hard to stop on my watch. Even after I quit the app or restart my watch there is always a card for MB top of the queue ready to accidentally start a song. If I'm not careful my phone will start blaring music while I'm checking other cards or just by gestures on the watch.

Easy Gesture-based control I've used Music Boss for Pebble, which worked fantastic. I only got rid of the Pebble because it's a crappy watch. But with my MB experience, I decided to buy the Android Wear version when I got my Asus ZenWatch 2. I love the gesture-based control, making it easier to control my Podcast Addict app. I've only just had this app for a few minutes, so I'm withholding the final star for a bit, since there's some delay between fast forward and rewind. I'll adjust the review later as appropriate.

How do you rate songs? It should be one tap or swipe to get to that screen

It switch to local music on phone

Simplifies Wear music control PERFECTLY. Awesome for driving since I no longer have to take my eyes off the road to navigate my smartwatch to change a song. I couldn't have made it any better myself (which I was contemplating lol). My only criticisms are only with UI navigation. Suggestion 1 - Add a floating action button to the bottom right for adding apps to control. Suggestion 2 - Use checkboxes to allow multiple apps to be selected.
