I am trying to make a web app wherein it reacts to an event from the headset button. I know that the keyCode for the head set is 79. (I checked it using a key event reader app.) Nothing happens when I use it. Is there any way to detect it?

    fwiw, i've never been able to get that button to raise anything on any mobile browers. it simply doesn't fire for some reason. the volume keys are flaky too... – dandavis Sep 16 '15 at 17:18

  • TLDR: as of now, on mobile you can't The question was asked about solution for web platform for android. Links in comments, other than the very specialised jabra one, are to solutions for native java android apps, so looks not relevant to this question. This is real concern for mobile web app development, so leaving the comment here for clarification. – Konstantin Levinski Apr 10 '19 at 07:51
