I don't really know how all this tech works, but when I bought my new Xiaomi buds, the moment I opened them my Android phone recognised I have new buds and asked me to pair them with one click. It was like magic. My understanding is that this would not be possible on an iphone, whereas this exact behavior works with Apple buds on an Apple phone.
- dlubarov 3y agoHey I briefly worked on that feature at Google! It looks like it's now known as Fast Pair - https://developers.google.com/nearby/fast-pair https://developers.google.com/nearby/fast-pair It's not part of AOSP, but something modern Google phones support. It's not a fully open thing - device makers must register with Google - but better than the iPhone situation where only Apple devices can have a nice pairing experience.
