Gesture Music car player for Pc

Love it!! Over the years (unfortunately!), I have "collected" several music players (LeechTunes, FluxTunes, PlaySafe, Opus, etc.) and GestureMusic is CLEARLY the best. the app swiping is great/needed (like others said, don't know why Apple overlooked this) but I love the size of the song title & artist, and the different colors. Big, bold & clean. Love the album name (in the rounded box) underneath. It's the visual layout, to me, that makes GestureMusic so much better! Definitely worth 5 stars but wish: 1) the icon was better looking, and, 2) you didn't have to swipe so many times up or down when trying to turn the volume up or down (when trying to go from one extreme to the other, hope that makes sense). I could see the option for skins in the future but I love the simple black background -- easy on the eyes when driving (esp. at night -- you don't have a bright screen inside your car). Well done! Please keep up the great work!

PROS I'm pretty satisfied with the overall interface. The song information and the album cover art displays clearly while music is playing. The interactive finger swiping gestures are easy to pause, play, change tracks and navigate. Something nice that the developers added recently was the rewind to beginning of currently playing track. Before, a backward swipe would have went to previous track. This feature was not included for some reason in their earlier release, it should've been a standard function like any other music player. But kudos to them! CONS I've built an iPhone mount on my car's dashboard that fits inside of the double din space where my head unit once was. I figured this was a better location than my window/suction-cup mount because it was easier to reach and did not wobble as much. And since the iPhone's orientation is stuck horizontally (an ideal position anyway) I would have given this app 5 stars if the song browsing function had a landscape mode. Another thing I want to mention was that the "disable sleep mode" function in the preferences menu does not seem to work. It may possibly be because I have the phone's password enabled... although the time out is set to an hour, that's LONG after the phone's screen dims. OVERALL This app is a very good solution for car audio integration. The pros surely outweigh the cons... I'm just very picky when it comes to small details.

This app is so very well written. It is simple, clean, and in every case does exactly what you want it to do. It works in portrait, landscape, upside down. I like to play the iPod in the car and this makes it very easy. I couldn't disagree more with the previous reviewer who wanted fancier graphics. I want to easily see the key data without any clutter -- this does that no matter how I pick up the iPod. I've read about some of the other apps: 1 finger for this, 2 fingers for that, 3 fingers for the other -- what are they thinking about??? For the car??? This app has a bug. A setting will let you turn off the iPod screenlock, BUT if you do something like advance to the next (or previous) song, the screenlock feature turns right back on. You can change volume, or pause/resume with no problem. Getting out of the app and getting right back in will re-enable the screenlock override.

I just purchased this app and think it is very good but there are a few things it needs - First my podcast playlists do not show up, the reason I purchased this app was to replace the default ipod controls. Since I mostly listen to podcasts not having the playlist show up was a very large disapointment. Second I would like to see the track times larger again this is more about podcasts than music. Third (and this may be in there but I am not sure where) it need a fast forward and reverse. I know this app was built for music and I am using it for podcasts but with those changes I think it would be a killer app for podcasts as well.
