Here, are detailed steps to access apps via phone accessories on Android. We normally connect accessories on Android phone to perform multiple functions like listening to music or charging the phone. Sometimes it happens, that we want our Android phone to launch an app automatically when we connect our Android phone with some accessories like headphone or charger.
For e.g., normally if we connect any headset with Android phone, we mean to listen to music on our Android phone. For listening to music, we manually have to launch music player app on our Android phone. Now what, if your music player app launches automatically when you connect a headset to your Android phone? This seems to be a nice idea as your smart phone starts working more smartly when it launches app automatically on connecting the phone via any accessories. So just follow the below steps to access apps automatically via phone accessories on Android.
Some of the good things to do with this app would be to launch a music player automatically when you plugin your headphone, or launch Skype or other chat client when you plugin headphone. I am not sure which app would I like to launch when charger is plugged in (may be some app with sooth sleeping music, as I plugin the charger normally during night?).
