Because you don't want to extract it from your backpack/purst first? Or you are lying in the dark avoiding turning the backlight on but you also badly want to skip that terrible song you hate...
edit: or you're presenting and using your phone on the podium as a remote without breaking eye contact/physically fiddling with the phone/laptop.

- Allower 7y agoI don't think it will work with your phone in your pocket or backpack.. and typically your headphones have controls for volume, skip, back, play/pause, so not really compelling on that front. For presentations a small remote control is superior in every way. The only use case I can see is cooking, and there are probably better solutions (e.g. better UI design).
