About this application

Headphone indicator is a small Android utility that adds a visible status-bar notification when headphones are connected. It is intended for situations where the system interface does not make the current audio accessory state obvious enough, especially when the user wants a quick visual cue before playing sound or starting a call.

The application focuses on one function: reflecting headphone connection state through a notification icon. It does not present itself as an audio player, equalizer, or device-management tool. Its scope is limited to Android devices and to the indication of plugged-in headphones.
