Using WizzJ on iOS

 

Supported Gestures inside the graphics:
– one finger double-tap: show/hide player
– two finger single-tap: show/hide styles list
– two finger swipe down: pause/resume animation
– two finger swipe right: next style
– two finger swipe left: previous style
– three finger single-tap: take screenshot

Support for the high resolution display can be disabled via the iOS Settings application. This results in a faster evolution of the graphics.

The scrubber and/or volume controls might be hidden, depending on the device’s screen size.

If you bought music from iTunes before 2009 the songs might still be DRM protected and thus are not allowed to be played outside the iPod. Meanwhile Apple has dropped this restriction, but the songs need to be re-downloaded. See here for a description.

Using AirPlay:
WizzJ supports AirPlay. However, as WizzJ captures sound form the microphone if no song is playing, AirPlay will not show any devices that do not have a microphone. Therefore, deactivate input from the microphone by tapping the “Microphone” symbol at the bottom of the style list, open the iOS ControlCenter and select your AirPlay device.

Using Bluetooth headsets:
In case your bluetooth headset doesn’t work, try to deactivate the microphone as shown in the screenshot above.

WizzJ for Windows

WizzJ for Windows allows you to hook on to your favorite music player, e.g., Windows Media Player, iTunes, VLC, etc.
