The famous VLC media player reaches on Apple Watch. A few days ago the famous media player VLC updated its application for iOS and finally adds support for Apple Watch. For those who do not know, VLC is one of the best multimedia players, thanks in part to its multiplatform nature, open source and compatibility with almost all possible video formats currently on the market.
VLC version 2.6 for iOS which was released a few days ago incorporates some important, though perhaps the most prominent of it -at least for users of Apple Watch’s new is its compatibility with Apple smartwatch. What does the application of VLC for Apple Watch? Basically it will allow us to control any film that we are playing on our iPhone or iPad remotely.
But it does not end there, because we have synchronized our entire multimedia library on your wrist, so you can select the video you want to play, get information about video playback and control through a set of basic controls such as pause, fast forward , delay or raise and lower the volume. In addition, if we make one-touch, Force Touch you can access a context menu where we will show 4 options: All files, music albums, TV shows and in breeding.
Each of these buttons will lead to content that we have in our multimedia library labeling. Remember that the application of VLC for iOS lets you add movies, videos and music directly from iTunes. The new features of this new version does not end in compatibility with Apple Watch, but also will have a new mini-player that will allow us to browse the library while we enjoy our content, support for music playlists repeat mode and more.

Apple Watch already incorporates Remote application, which allows us to control our Apple TV directly from the watch. As we read in iDownloadBlog, the device has great potential as a remote control, not just media, but also other devices such as your car or the objects of our home, which we hope to do with the progressive arrival to the aftermarket HomeKit support.
