Lock screen Audio Controls

[sfbayboater]

Looking to picking up an S4. One of the main things that annoyed me about the S3 was the lack of audio controls on the lock screen when swipe to unlock was enabled. Can you control audio from the lock screen with the S4.

Thanks.

Just download an audio player with lock screen controls. Very simple

I use Google Play and Pandora and can confirm that from the lockscreen you can control play/pause/skip and see song title and album art.

Thanks. The main one I'm interested in was Pocketcast and it did not work on the S3.

Has Samsung integrated those controls with google music yet? By that I mean, will it control google music as well? I know HTC took advantage of google Apis to allow for that (using the HTC lock screen controls to control the google music app) but the S3 I had didn't.
