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:

      I didn’t realize that was an Android feature. I thought it was something that the sites themselves used.

        I don’t think it’s an Android feature. It shows up on desktop as well.

      I once found a ublock filter for that, but only for one specific site. I’ll see if I can get it to work for any site

        It is constant, the only way I know of is to log in and disable it in your account settings which makes it an absolute balls in terms of privacy.
