How to do music share?

[bett3r]

I'm using Earbuds Pro and the other user using Earbuds+. 

I know you go to Settings, then Connections > Bluetooth > More menu (3-dot) > Advanced > Music share. Then the other user must connect to the direct wifi from my phone. 

I have completed this steps I still can't share music with another user. There's no music on the other user if I play my Spotify from my phone.

Help anyone?

Hi bett3r,

Dual Audio allows you to send your media audio to two different Bluetooth devices at once. This means that not only can you use two pairs of headphones at one time but you can share between two different sets of Bluetooth speakers as well. After you pair both Bluetooth devices to your Samsung Galaxy phone, you just need to access your Media Panel on your Quick Settings.

Follow the below steps for more information.

- Ensure you have paired to 2 Bluetooth Speakers.

- Swipe down on your screen to access your Quick Panel and tap on Media.

- If you are unable to view the Media and Devices settings within your Quick Panel you may have disabled Show Media and Devices.

To enable the Media and Device Option:

> Swipe down to access Quick Panel and tap on more Three vertical dots.

> Tap on Quick panel layout.

> Toggle on Show media and devices.

> Once enabled you will be able to view Media and Devices in your Quick Panel.

- Now, Ensure you have selected both Audio outputs to start playing music from both Bluetooth speakers.

- Once connected you will be able to play the same audio from both devices and adjust the volume with ease.

It's basically what I just wrote in the my post.

Hi bett3r, I think you got Music Share concept wrong. This feature is not share your music from your phone. This feature is savng the bluetooth pairing procedure steps when there is more than 1 of your friends want to play music from 1 specific bluetooth speaker.

So, basically, you need to enable Music share, which I can see that you have already done. Then, pick a bluetooth speaker from your bluetooth device list (if you have one). Now, if your friends want to play their songs to this bluetooth speaker, you can give permission to them to play on the bluetooth speaker.

Therefore, I think this feature should call bluetooth speaker sharing instead. A liittle misleading from the feature name.

You're far smarter than most mods here! They don't care to explain clearly at all. I thought Music Share is a way I can play music from my phone for two earbuds users (including mine). I'm trying to use this feature while jogging with my spouse.

Thanks again!

But you can do Dual audio. I never try, but it supports Android 10 / 11 devices. Pair your wife's buds to your phone in Bluetooth menu. Once is done, swipe down from quick menu. Click on Media and play music from Sportify for both bluetooth ear buds.

Since I never try, did a googling and found this material that help you to setup. Hope this helps.

***Update - tested with my wife's Buds Live, it works perfectly. Should work for you too. 😉

I'm using S21U and I can't find this feature. I think they're only for Australia devices?

No, my Note20 Ultra has it too.

What do you not found? The media button?

Swipe down the notification until you see quick panel. Click 3 dots on top right, click quick panel layout. Enable show devices and media button.

Once you see the media button on quick panel, you can play songs on both earbuds.

No I can found Media button but I can't find Dual Audio options. But then I realized you just need to tick the Bluetooth devices you want to connected to. I got it working now, thanks again!

Yeah, you have to select the 2nd device. Good to know this works for you. Cheers bud!! 😄
