The first Android 16 developer preview adds an Audio Sharing feature that lets other people listen to your phone’s media along with you.

    I can already do this on my Samsung Galaxy S23. Has this been a Samsung-only thing?

    That being said, Samsung’s Bluetooth UI leaves much to be desired, IMO.

    Edit: Granted, it doesn’t work exactly as described in the article, but I can have multiple BT speakers playing the same content from my phone.

      I can do this with my Note 20 ultra. It’s a Bluetooth 5 feature. We can also have multiple sources connected to one speaker. This all has nothing to do with Android 16.

      Yeah Airpods/iPhones have had this for almost a half decade, I am just as confused, seeing everybody act like this is brand new and mind-bending tech.
