Set up Music Share
Do you have a brand-new favorite song? Use Music Share to show it your friends who are also interested in music.
- First, make sure you have Wi-Fi and Bluetooth turned on. Next, pair your desired audio Bluetooth device, such as a wireless speaker, to your phone if you haven't already.
- Using two fingers, swipe down from the top of the screen to open the Quick settings panel on your phone.
- Swipe left, and then tap Music Share. If Music Share does not appear in the panel, you may need to add it.
- From there, adjust your desired settings, such as how long devices will stay connected once music stops playing.
- When your friend wants to connect to one of your audio devices, they'll need to make sure that Music Share is also activated on their phone. They also need to have Wi-Fi and Bluetooth enabled.
- Next, open the Quick settings panel on your friend's phone.
- Touch and hold the Bluetooth icon; your friend's phone will automatically start searching for nearby Bluetooth devices. If needed, tap Scan at the top of the screen.
- When it appears in the list of avaiable devices, tap the desired audio device, the same one your phone is connected to. If needed, tap Allow on the other phone to give it permission to connect.
- Once it's connected, your friend will be able to play music on your audio device.
