Use multiple Bluetooth audio accessories at once on an Android device

Summary

Android help describes a broadcast list on Samsung devices and a QR route for LE Audio accessories.

Key findings

• The introduction says a phone can scan public LE Audio broadcasts and help connected headphones or hearing devices receive them; it requires a phone and accessories supporting LE Audio.
• The Samsung joining section directs the user through Bluetooth settings, the accessory settings and Find a broadcast, then selection from a list.
• The Join a broadcast section requires connected LE Audio headphones, scanning a QR code from a device sharing its audio, then selecting Playlist and Listen. This example describes device-to-device sharing, with no venue deployment or subgroup-selection test.

Limits

Undated instructions read on 13 October 2026; no model or operating-system matrix, subgroup-selection example, language-filter behaviour or usability measurements. A broadcast list does not establish that every subgroup is separately displayed.
