Google will soon enable full support for Bluetooth LE Audio to Android 13
Google brings tons of great changes in Android 12, from new Material You and updated notification shades designed for you to improved accessibility features and privacy dashboard. And now, the recent commitment submitted to AOSP (Android Open Source Project), Android 13 will have full support for Energy (LE) audio on Bluetooth.
Google actually added the LC3 encoder, while at the same time adding this codec as an option in the developer options (via XDA). “This is the highest priority A2DP source codec,” Rahman said.
There is still some opacity as to whether this is sufficient to enable full Bluetooth LE audio support. However, it will be ready for the Android 13 release in a few months. Based on the launch of Android 12 earlier this year, Google is likely to unveil Android 13 at I/O 2022.
The Bluetooth LE Audio Classic (BR/EDR) audio standard consumes less power. It can bring multistream audio and the ability to transmit audio to multiple devices via Bluetooth. Additionally, Bluetooth LE audio can be integrated with hearing aids to provide better accessibility options to future users.
Bluetooth LE is easy to confuse with LE audio. Although Android 12 has partial support for this feature, it seems that customers will have to wait until the next iteration of the Google operating system to make full use of LE audio capabilities.
Google has changed some things regarding app management in the latest Android release. Additionally, Android 12’s PhantomProcesskiller controls users’ ability to execute multiple functions in the background. This slows down the performance of apps like Termux. Fortunately, this can be fixed with Android 13, which is codenamed Tiramisu.
Some smartphones are still waiting for the Android 12 update, so its successor is still a long way off. We hope that future leaks will give us a better understanding of Google’s upcoming mobile operating system.

Google introduced the AI Wallpaper feature with the Pixel 8 series. The same functionality is also available in Samsung’s Galaxy S24 series thanks to Genini Nano. Now, Google is preparing to make AI-generated wallpapers sharable with Android 15.
Pixel’s ability to create AI-generated wallpapers is quite popular among users. Currently, the feature only allows users to generate stunning wallpapers and apply on the home screen and lock screen. Sharing with someone presently requires to be saved as a screenshot.

The preview will display how the wallpaper will be applied to your phone’s home or lock screen. The pencil button will allow you to refine the prompt used to create the wallpaper. Share button is all you need to share AI-generated wallpaper with others.
At present, the ability to share AI-generated wallpaper is broken. It suggests the feature is still under development and requires additional work. The next Beta might make it functional for Beta users, and we guess public availability with a Stable rollout.
