Ratings and reviews

Simple to use and works! You can have your speakers disabled and have your earbuds working which prevents music from playing when you leave the car or are in lesson as it sometimes doesn't disconnect. Great simple app in general although you need to hold down on the app to access the menu and press Bluetooth for the devices you want it to treat as an audio device

perfect, except it initially did not recognize when i wasusing my bluetooth speaker, so bluetooth got silenced along with the internal one :( eventually i discovered the setting for bluetooth recognition which only showed when i was connected to the bluetooth. shouldn't all settings be settable even before connecting? when installing on another device i noticed that among the permission requests it did ask if i wanted to use bluetooth. this appears to address the issue.

Okay context (I have an app that lets me output audio from current phone to another phone. The problem is that it plays in both devices whenever I play an audio through YouTube or whatever). This app does the job. Thanks.
