Galaxy S23

I have been a Samsung phone user since before Android. My phone is a company phone. I had a S23 Ultra and at the time my IT guy said "I have a free pixel 9 pro want to try it". I did and have been using it. I LOVE that when I push the volume rocker up or down I get to this menu with one tap and can choose my audio Output. I often will send stuff via Bluetooth to something or want to swap to just my phone speakers. 

 

In terms of physical build of the phone I am not the biggest fan of the Pixel. I prefer Samsung but this feature and a few Google integration items make it tempting to stay in the pixel. I am debating going to a S25 but before I do I wanted to see if anyone knew how to get something like this on a Galaxy or a quick and simple one or two button push swap between audio outputs.

 

I know it seems silly but I use this probably 20+ times a day.

@Matt-G Not sure why you posted here.

On your S23 Ultra, after you click the volume rocker click the 3 dots on the top of the display that appears. Then you will see a panel with individual volume controls.

It's there. You just access it differently.

While the audio is playing (or paused), swipe down, then tap Media Output, then select the audio device.1748402697366.jpg1748402697422.jpg

With Modes and Routines you can have your phone automatically connect to your audio to your house Bluetooth speaker, then swith to the car's when driving, then to another when you get to work.

I have my phone switch to my beside speaker when my Sleep mode turns on at night.

You can even have multiple audio apps open and switch quickly between them by swiping left and right.

The menu minimizes too. 1748403770201.jpg1748403770249.jpg1748403939561.jpg1748403939605.jpg
