Plug In Launcher
There is also a pro version of this app in the market. Plug In Launcher PRO includes wifi and bluetooth connectivity support, and also "extra actions" of toggling bluetooth, wifi, and ringer mode.
Tired before bed and want the Alarm clock app to launch when you plug it in to charge? Go ahead and plug it in... AND ITS THERE!
Out on a run and want to quickly launch one of your music player apps? just plug in your headphones and have it automatically press play!
Want to launch wifi tethering when you connect to your computer? DONE!
Once installed, specify which applications you want to launch when the respected cables are connected.
The Power and Usb capabilities are determined based on the new toggle button preference in their tabs. The Headset capabilities require a small service that is ran in the background. It is not running if the status is off.

This is an old, unsupported app that says it has extra features in a paid version that doesn't exist. Unfortunate, it seems to work for plugging in headphones at least.
Love the idea of this app. I don't understand why it's limited by the plugin to action. example i want to press play when i plug in a USB cable. Sadly that option is only available under headphones.
Wanted to start rhapsody and play music when audio jack inserted. Tried Tasker but Google play music would always start instead of Rhapsody. This app works great, starts rhapsody every time.
The idea is good but the app does not work the way I would like; if my phone is locked or powered off it does not unlock or power on first and then start the app, which is what I'm really looking for.
Works 100% of the time. All those other apps that could never wake my phone after my power button refused to power on my device. This app does what I needed . Thanks!
Worked beautifully on Lollipop (Moto E 1st gen) but on Marshmallow, it doesn't unlock the device or press Play. Emailed the developer but no response.
This is perfect. I don't have to mess with opening my app, pressing play and jacking up the volume every time I get in my car.
Needs update for 4.1 to handle the wake up, unlock, and prompt function that should happen when plugging in.
Plugging in the charger works perfect. Plugging in the headphones does not. Android 4.4
Used to work okay. .now never. If plugging in headphones, it'll load pandora.. but won't play. It also won't let you set the volume all the way up. . Soit's annoying to have to press play and then turn the volume up.
Breaks the home button on Nexus S. Has happened 3 times since installing it yesterday. A reboot fixes it. For now this app is not for me. By break, I mean it just reopens the current app after plug in launcher launched a program when headphones were plugged in, anytime the home button is pressed. Uninstalling the app without a restart also fixed the bug.
Just needed application to launch another application whenever I plug in to recharge. This application does so much more...
Despite negative reviews on Kitkat, works fine on my Nexus 4 with Android 4.4.2. Actions happen on charging as well as on plugging in headset. Will purchase commercial version.
Very good app just what I needed, plug in power and you choose app & settings load up. Perfect.
After months I got an app which worked for my USB headphones.
Pro version link is broken, can't find it on google play either. That's ridiculous. There's also no option to launch 2 app's without a dialog(if you have multiple on an action, you have to choose one).
This is why you go android. Awesome idea and executed well. Thanks!
Does a simple thing very well
you can add conditional launch (screen on or off)
auto plays Pandora when i connect a headset. best idea ever!
Opens G Play app, but does not play music when the option is enabled to select "Press Play on launch". Also, would like to be able to test out the bluetooth feature without having to pay for the full app (would happily sit through more ads for that option).
Still works with 7.1.1 but wish there was an updated version...
Says I need the pro version for Bluetooth but there is no pro version.
Just plug the jack and the music starts. It works! This app is amazing! Thank u dev
Please help i dont know how to use it ..... i cant use my micro usb earphone
Maybe just me? but I don't think so. Please update for 4.4 compatibility for 5star
Don't have to look for app... a true plug and play!!! Thanks!
Provide delay option to give the delay to execute task.
This apps awesome. But its missing a major feature for me. The ability to activate USB tethering when USB is plugged in. And the ability to change the color scheme. Other than that its a great little app that does what it says in a package under 1mb. Nice. And no unnecessary permissions.
