Android to simplify hearing aid connections with Fast Pair

Google is making it simpler to connect hearing aids to Android phones with its Fast Pair feature. This feature already helps users quickly connect devices like headphones and speakers to their phones. Now, Google is working to add Bluetooth hearing aids to that list.

Android 15 has already made some improvements for hearing aids. It supports Bluetooth LE Audio and Audio Streaming for Hearing Aids (ASHA), which help hearing aids work better with Android devices.

Fast Pair will now build on these improvements and help users connect their hearing aids with just a few simple steps. This feature reference has been spotted on Google Play Services 24.50.32 beta by Assemble Debug (via Android Authority).

According to the information, the Fast Pair will soon recognize hearing aids as a type of Bluetooth device. This means people will no longer need to manually pair their hearing aids with their phones. Instead, Fast Pair will allow them to connect instantly, just like it does with other Bluetooth devices.

While we don’t yet know which hearing aid brands will work with Fast Pair, this new feature is expected to make life easier for those who use hearing aids. It shows that Google is working hard to make Android more accessible for everyone.

In the future, Android users may be able to connect their hearing aids with just a tap, saving them time and effort. Stay tuned for more information.
