FaceHalt is a tweak for iOS that halts video playback when you're not looking at the screen. It has been updated with an 'experimental' mode for third party apps.
Similar to an intelligent pausing feature some other phones may have, FaceHalt Pauses and Plays videos in (almost) any application you're watching videos in! FaceHalt currently hooks into most applications and works great, certain apps with custom Video Player implementations (i.e. VLC) need additional work and will be supported in the near future
How To Use:
To use, simply make sure the App is enabled in Settings->FaceHalt (turn off to disable per app). When playing a video FaceHalt will automatically play and pause based on your gaze. To manually pause a video simply double tap the pause button, then to restart FaceHalt after simply press Play again
What's New In This Version:
● Fixed Settings panel
● Added "Experimental" mode for apps such as Hulu, Netflix, HBOGo, etc. If an app isn't working try setting it to Experimental mode.
● Fixed potential crashes
Support:
● iPad 2, iPad 3, iPad 4, iPad Mini
● iPhone 4s, iPhone 5
● iPod Touch 5th Generation
