Also, when it starts playing music, or whatever it starts playing when it is supposed to be playing your book, , the bard app is still on the screen. Hit the play button. The music will go away and the bard app will start playing again. But what is important is that it will behave as it should from then on, with the headphones, until you hit the home button and go to something else. Even then, it sometimes behaves as it should until you remove it from the app switcher or shut down your phone.

This may help. Best, Anna On Oct 19, 2015, at 12:29 PM, Christina C. <blindmaclo...@gmail.com> wrote: grr, that’s a major bummer for me. I can’t even use the BARD app because I typically need to use headphones and I am always interrupted by a phone call or the kids. It was just too incredibly frustrating to not be able to quickly pause and resume playback. It almost always started playing music. So, I just gave up. I was hoping that since they fixed the two-finger-double-tap that the pausing with a microphone or headset would also be fixed. The only time I can use the BARD app is if I know I will absolutely not be interrupted or I am actively zooming through a magazine and my fingers are constantly on the phone speeding through tidbits I want to read. However, forget listening to a book while folding clothes and such. :( I do use the BARD app to browse the latest books. I do love using the app for that. Now, with the ability to more easily add and remove books from the wish list, the BARD app is even better for me for checking out the latest books available.

By this I mean if you're listening to a book and then get a phone call which you answer with your earpods remote button, after the call ends, pressing the remote button to begin playback again will cause whatever had focus before BARD Mobile to start playing, In my case, it's usually the music app. -- The following information is important for all members of the VIPhone list.
