Wireless pairing is about to become a lot less frustrating for Android device users.
Android users, however, had to go through a couple of extra finicky steps to get their devices to pair with Bluetooth or Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) products, with NFC speeding up the process for some products.
What is Fast Pair for Android?
The latest announcement from Android developers will see Bluetooth pairing get a lot simpler, as Fast Pair will now be available on devices running Google Play Services 11.7 and Android 6.0 and above.
The feature uses BLE and your Android device’s location to make Bluetooth accessories in close range automatically discoverable, even showing you an image of the product you’re using.
