About this app

The Widget App & Bluetooth Manager lets you easily connect Bluetooth headphones (or any audio device) right from the home screen – with a separate widget for each device or a single widget listing all your devices.

If you want to listen to music, you have to go to settings and connect Bluetooth headphones?
Do you need to easily switch between car audio, phone or handsfree?
Simply connect to permanently powered Bluetooth devices such as soundbars?
Need to monitor battery level of your Bluetooth headphones?

I have a better solution – just add a widget to the home screen for all your favorite BT wireless devices.

One click on the widget to connect Bluetooth headphones and play Spotify without going into the settings menu. The widget always clearly displays the status of the Bluetooth connection. You can see connected Bluetooth profiles (music, call) on the widget, if headphones support it.

For supported devices, the widget displays the battery level of the Bluetooth devices (the manufacturer must support this feature).

The app supports enhanced reading battery level from the following popular TWS earbuds: Google Pixel, Apple Airpods, Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro, Buds Live, Buds Plus. In the App, on the widget or in notification you can see the battery level of each earbud and the case.

Enhanced widget mode: Widget tap to displays a menu with options to connect / disconnect, select the active device and control Bluetooth profiles (music, call).

Restore saved volume level when headphones connect.

Customize widget size, color, margins, icon and transparency. On Android 12+, the widget supports dynamic color themes based on the user's wallpaper.

The app supports A2DP and Headset profiles, audio devices such as portable speakers, headphones, soundbars, handsfree, etc... On the widget and in the app, supported Bluetooth profiles are indicated by an icon in the top right corner. Note icon for A2DP - stream high quality audio (music) or phone icon for calls.

Ratings and reviews

Update per feedback: I turned off the priority setting (beta) and problem solved, thanks! Great app, just what I needed! however in the last few days (since the May 23rd update maybe?), Android 15 on Moto Edge+ 2023 constantly shows a Priority notification from BAC that pops up in notification bar, then closes. Force-closing the app stops it, but of course then the widgets are broken.

Fantastic app and very simple to use. I previously had problems with Bluetooth headphones that came on when a call comes in. This App confirms my headphones are definitely off (and do not come back on when I don't want them to) so I can take a call without scrambling around trying to switch them off. Also this App allows me to swap easily between various Bluetooth headphones and speakers.

This is a GREAT app - providing a connection priority list which ought to standard in Android. Thanks! It helps me make sure that the car BT does not hijack my BT connection if I am already using my earbuds. Well the car captures it for a few seconds, then this great app brings it back to my earbuds. So delighted! But, I find it have difficulties doing the same with LE Audio connected earbuds/headsets. I hope this is going to be supported soon in the future as well. (I am happy to help test!)
