Headsets with support for broadcasting audio are coming this year, so Google is preparing to add a dedicated audio sharing page in Android 15

tl;dr from the article:

  • Auracast is a feature of the Bluetooth LE Audio standard that enables broadcasting audio to nearby devices.
  • Android added basic support for Bluetooth LE Audio in Android 13, including support for starting and connecting to audio streams.
  • Android 15 could get a dedicated page for audio sharing, signaling that Auracast could be a key feature of the new OS.

Screenshots from the article of how the feature would look like:

      It sounds like you’ll be able to play music to an unlimited number of headphones

        Nice. I’ve never owned a Galaxy with that capability and now I’m using a Pixel so it’s definitely new for me.
