Description
Next Track lets you skip songs, mute or stop music using your volume buttons. Next Track works with all standard music players to control music with the screen off. Remap your volume keys while listening to music. Choose single, double and long press actions.

Unlike other similar apps, Next Track does not require invasive permissions!

Ignore the reviews and rating, it's just people complaining that the full version costs money. I can't offer this app completely free. There are no ads and I don't collect and sell your personal info, so it has to have a very small price to cover development costs.

This free download lets you try it on your phone to make sure it works. With the free version, a single press of the volume down key will skip to the next track. A double press of the volume down key will lower the volume. The volume up key is not modified. If this is all you need, you're all set! No complicated setup is required.

Free version features
• Skip to next track with one press of volume down
• Decrease volume with more than one press
• Works with the screen off

If you want to do more, upgrade to the Pro version with an easy in-app purchase to unlock all features.

Pro version features (available thru in-app payment)
• Assign actions to volume down and volume up
• Assign functions to single press, double press and long press
• Actions available: next track, previous track, stop, mute, and do nothing
• Works with screen on, with screen off, or both
• Vibrate on key press
• Adjust double press delay

Next Track works only while music is playing. Your volume buttons work normally when music is not playing.

Notes:
-Volume up actions do not work when volume is at max
-Long press actions require a one-time adb command with phone connected to PC
-May not work well with screen off on some Huawei devices

More advanced remapping actions are available in my other app,
Button Mapper

Next Track does not require intrusive permissions, does not need root, does not have ads and does not collect or sell your info.

Comments on Next Track: Volume button skip for Android

★★★★☆ Kazami Yuuji 風見 雄二 · Feb 25, 2024
Rewriting my review: It's a good app that does exactly what it needs. Paywall is fine because no ads and such, doesn't even need Internet (thank you). I'll say it again though like in my initial review, I would like it see a press and hold option even though it uses different permissions and all. The Android 14 bug might be an OS bug. It got fixed for me after a system update. All in all a good app that does what you'd expect. I would just like to see a little more functionality.
★★★★★ Carson Saldanha · Feb 24, 2026
Works amazing! Don't know why this app has such a low rating. App doesn't request any invasive permissions (including network access!), so I know I can trust it. Pro version is well worth the small fee. Thank you!
★★★★★ Brian Wilmot · Sep 17, 2025
The lock screen media buttons on my phone are so small I can't reliably click them. Now I don't even need to look at my phone to skip the track. Thanks! Well worth the purchase! Pros: Free download to test on your phone (small fee to unlock pro and customize) No ads or time limit in the free version. No questionable permissions required. Always on display is not required. Cons: Long press is not supported, but I'm guessing this would require more invasive permissions and always on display.
★☆☆☆☆ Joshua Kim · Mar 8, 2024
It was fine until just today... It's not staying on for some reason. So now I'm back to having to open my music app and change it from there... What did you guys do? The free version was working and now it's not.
★☆☆☆☆ Marc Cané · Jun 27, 2023
DO NOT PAY if you expect to use the double click to skip a song! The application does not work as intended and when you enable a double click action and hold a volume button it triggers the action instead of just increasing/decreasing the volume. My refund was denied even if the app does not work correctly, and I could not use it.
★★☆☆☆ S B · Dec 2, 2022
I paid for pro version. Very unreliable on my zenfone 9. Works 20% of the time. Sometimes the button will work maybe twice, then suddenly it decides to stop reacting to the button press. Now I've gotten a snarky response from the developer who assumes I can't read. No, it is not the volume up button that isn't working. It's both of them, and it has nothing to do with max volume, I already checked.
