    Tried finding this but cannot. It's a pain to pull out the phone just to skip a song.

    only way to do this is rooting. and even then it didnt work at times on my M9. One of the many things BlackBerry does that android just can't.

    You would think blackberry would carry that feature over. I get the fact they want everything to be more familiar to android veterans but this is a small but fickle oversight of usability they could put in. I'm sure it would be a welcome feature from bb10 everyone would enjoy

    I was just fighting with the same issue today.

    It's a pain in the *** to have to wake up the phone just to pause the music.

    I lived being able to press the middle key on the side to pause and play on my z30

    Holy ****.. is this really not part of the OS.. #gonnasuck there must be a way they can add it. I want more than just another Android... the BlackBerry experience on Android. Wish I could be more constructive..

    I don't have a priv but I saw in one of the many reviews that this feature IS available, the default is off, you have to turn it on.

    I have the Priv and the default music app (Play Music) does not have the feature. The volume goes up, down, or mute. Double clicking or long holds wont do anything.

    This simply isn't true, as much as I wish it was

    I use a flip case and I can flick on the window to advance forward or backwards easily. Also most iem headsets which have three control buttons don't work either as most are for IOS compatibility and the three different ones I own dont make an android version. I know certain brands make android versions. I tried my Samsung three button iem that came with the S6 and only can control volume up down. But I can control my forward and backwards with my pebble time steel smartwatch!

    Doesn't apple own a patent on headphones with music controls? Maybe that is why blackberry didn't use that feature.
