We used to have earbuds that don’t need to be charged because they had a headphone jack, didn’t get lost so easily because they had a cord attached to a headphone jack, never lost the bluetooth connection because they had a headphone jack, and they cost less because they had a headphone jack. https://bsky.app/profile/daisyfm.bsky.social/post/3l3mfjc6sn62k

    We used to share our tunes with a simple Y-cable.

    Anyone have a tip for me on how to connect two Bluetooth headphones to one device? I’ve tried on Android (Samsung) and an iPad with no luck… I’m back to the good old Y-cable I’ve used since the Walkman days.

      Do you have the option “media output” in the pull down menu? There you can select all the devices you want to stream to.

          Both Samsung phones I’ve had do it. And I know iPhone can. It’s a really great feature. My wife and I use it to listen to books together

      you get 3.5mm dongles that plug into USB C or lighting ports. Or you can get a wireless DAC with a 3.5 port on it. I’ve got both for different use cases.

      Get a bluetooth audio transmitter dongle. Most of them support two pairs of headphones. That’s also the only way to get APT-X LL support for low latency audio.
