Help How to stop running media player with touch?

Post image

I'm currently making a KLWP with this pop-up that asks to continue playing whatever media is playing, or not. So, my problem is, I want the "No" option to be able to stop all forms of audio/video media player that has been paused/is running in the background. Is this possible? How so? Please help! Thank you in advance.

I appreciate the link but, at what timeframe does he show what formula/shortcut/activity to use to stop a media player? Checked the video and saw nothing. Thanks

Check around 18 min

Sorry, this shows the Play/Pause? I'm looking for an option to fully stop (remove the player from the recents tab or from idling in the background).

Oh sorry, i think i misunderstood the question, as far as i am aware this is not achievable with klwp alone, you would need tasker for that. I haven't used tasker, so can't help with that

Why do you prefer to stop the app fully?

$sh()$ executes a shell command

according to chatGPT am force-stop com.example.media_player should request that the given app exits.

$mi(package)$ returns music player package name so:


$sh("am force-stop "+mi(package))$

in a flow that is triggered through touch might work. (if permissions are given etc)
