Spotify SmartWatch Remote 1.3

I just uploaded a new version of Spotify SmartWatch Remote to Google Play.
It contains a feature that was requested already back in version 1.0: Volume Controls!
Thanks to Joe (whoever you are :-) ) for making the suggestion.

The new version also contains a workaround for a crash that has affected some users
(roughly 5% of all users has been affected by the problem).

  1. Is this working on the galaxy gear ?

  2. No, this only works on the Sony SmartWatch 1 & 2. Sorry!

  3. Hi Magnus,

    I have fixed the problem with swiping to the next track but due to some issues with publishing an updated version on Google Play I had to publish a new app instead:

    https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.erikandre.smartwatch.spotify2

    Please uninstall the old app and use this one instead!

    Thanks for using Spotify SmartWatch Remote!

  4. Hey Erik, I loved using your app on my old Z2 and now I have upgraded to an S7 I would love to carry on using it! Sadly org.erikandre.smartwatch.spotify2 doesn't seem to be on the Play Store anymore :(, is there anyway you can upload the APK/ release the source code so we can carry on using it? :) Thanks!

    1. Hi! Thanks!

      Sadly the app got removed from the Play store due to a policy violation (haven't bothered to figure out what went wrong there but maybe something to do with how I used the Spotify logo?)

      I just published a copy of the source code on github: https://github.com/erikandre/spotify-smartwatch
      It's really been a while since I built it the last time, and I don't even know if I have the watch to test it on. I hope you can get it running!

Getting started with OpenSTM32 on OSX

For some time now I have been doing projects (or should I rather say "been playing around") with AVR microcontrollers. Both in the form of different types of Arduinos but also in stand-alone projects (including the USB KVM and a battery powered ATTINY85 board, which I still haven't written a post about). For the most part I really like these microcontrollers, they are versatile, low powered and the development tools available are excellent (and importantly, available on all major platforms). However, In one of my latest projects I encountered a situation where AVRs just might not be enough. What I wanted to do was to capture images from a digital camera module (OV7670) and process them to determine movement speed and direction. While it might in theory be possible to do so on an ATMEGA microcontroller or similar, the small amount of memory available would make such an operation tricky at best. At that point I started looking for a more powerful microcontroller, and o...

Simple outline for multi-sprite characters in Unity 2D using Shader Graph

For the last 6 months I've been working on a new (untitled) 2D game project in Unity both as a way to learn C# and also to play around with some game concepts I've been thinking about for quite a while. Since I'm not much of an artist or a graphic designer I purchased a set of rather nice looking character sprites from  https://tokegameart.net/  that also came with animations and ready to use Unity packages. Since my game has multiple characters on screen at one and each one can be given orders I needed a way to show which one was selected or active. One common way to handle this which felt like a good fit for me is to show an outline around the selected character. Luckily there's a lot of examples and guides explaining how to do this in Unity (and I based this one on a great article by Daniel Ilett). There was one snag though, my characters consist of multiple sprites (one for reach part of the body) that are drawn and animated separately. This meant that it w...

How I Designed and Built a Custom Picture Frame for Polaroid Photos

Introduction As a lover of Polaroid photography, I’ve always wanted a simple, stylish way to display my favorite shots. However, I quickly realized that finding a frame specifically designed for a single Polaroid photo was nearly impossible. That’s what led me to design and build my own. This post will take you through my journey, from the design process to overcoming challenges and provide a step-by-step DIY guide so that as long as you have a laser cutter handy, you can build your own! The final version: looking rather professional but getting there was a journey The Inspiration & Initial Design I love the nostalgic charm of Polaroid photos, but I wanted a way to showcase them individually rather than in albums or on string clips. Traditional photo frames didn’t fit Polaroids well, often leaving too much space or cropping the unique white border. This motivated me to design a frame that perfectly fits a single Polaroid, allowing it to be displayed cleanly while maintaining its ae...
