Allow custom double‑tap actions on Wyze headphones right earcup (play/pause, skip, noise‑cancel toggle, etc.)

[matthewjclayton]

I’m enjoying these over-the-ear headphones, but I’d like to request that Wyze add customizable double‑tap behavior for the right earcup touch control on the Wyze Headphones.

Right now the double‑tap option is limited to “Voice Assistant” or “Do Nothing”, but I never use the voice assistant and “Do Nothing” seems like a pointless option. Many users would get more value if they could map this tap to other actions, such as:

**Play / pause**

Skip to the next / previous track

Toggle noise‑cancelation / transparency

Jump forward or backward in audio

Adding any of these, especially the play/pause, would make the touch controls much more functional and user friendly.

Please consider adding this as a user‑selectable option in the Wyze app under Headphones → Settings → Touch Controls. Thanks!

Welcome to the Forum, @matthewjclayton!

While I understand what you’re suggesting, I’d actually prefer to see a single-tap on the right earcup act as play/pause because that would mimic what the Wyze Buds do, as I also use those frequently.

Having said that, the kinds of things you’re suggesting here have already been requested in several related Wishlist topics:

Headphone Skip Double-Tap Remap

The middle button is too small to find quickly, for instance when running or exercising. I know that it might be difficult to remap the touch controls to swipe for skipping on the right earcup, but it might make sense to remap the skip buttons to the volume controls. A double tap on the volume up would skip forward and volume down would skip backwards. This would work great with music and podcasts, podcasts skipping forward in time and skipping songs in playlists. Again it would be amazing to …

Wyze Headphones V2

I’ve had my first pair of Wyze Headphone die from water/sweat—I wore them outside working in the rain and also wore them a few times on the indoor bike trainer and they definitely got sweat on Would be great to have an version of the headphones which were IPX4 (or above) rated. Mod edit Changed title to V2 so all headphones related upgrades can be mentioned in this thread.

WYZE Headphones Product Suggestions

This is a related product suggestion… I know WYZE is keen on adding interesting products, and this is a product that is hard to find and for which I would be a ready adopter. I’m looking for wireless headphones that can take any audio input (e.g. a TV, radio, mixer, computer, preamp, hi-fi system, etc.) to send to the headphones. The tricky part is low latency. Very likely it could be an accessory to thr recently announced WYZE headphones, but as I say, latency is imporant for anyone who wants t…
