Description

Widget (NOT app, will not show up in apps!) to connect to a Bluetooth A2DP streaming (A2DP) receiver without having to navigate through all the settings menus. This widget can be placed on a home screen. Once you place it on a screen, a configuration activity will let you select which Bluetooth device would want to associate with the widget. Short click the widget for connect the A2DP device. Click again to disconnect.

See manual, release notes, details here: https://github.com/jroal/a2dp-connect2/wiki

This widget will only connect/disconnect the A2DP profile. It will not connect or disconnect any other Bluetooth profiles. It is just a very simple widget with no app and no other functions.

This version is for Android 4.2 and up. It may not be supported on all devices! I don't have all devices to test so you will just need to try it. Several have left bad ratings. If you have the same device as one of the bad ratings claiming it does not work than it may not work on those devices.

Note: This is only a widget, not an app. You must place an instance of the widget on your home screen. See your devices help for instructions on placing widgets on your home screen. All it does is toggle the connection to A2DP profile only. Nothing else. It does not handle pairing of Bluetooth devices either. Do that with your Android settings. Most of the bad ratings are from people who don't know how widgets work, or are having pairing problems.

5 ★ I have used widgets for this but they are out of date ever since Jelly Bean. Was so happy to find this one!! Thanks Jim Roal!!!! By the way, it is working for me on moto X. Just 2 recomendations: 1. the icon is a bit large for my liking. 2. You should change the color of the icon when its in a connected State vs not connected

5 ★ This is perfect since google maps removed the bluetooth switch for directions in android 7.0. With Ford sync you couldn't hear the map directions if you was listening to anything other than bluetooth but with this app I can now easily get the directions through the phone speaker and calls are still routed through the Ford sync system and if I want music from the phone it's there with a press of the widget. Brilliant

5 ★ I've been searching for a while for an app that would give me a shortcut to connect my phone to my car's newly installed bluetooth for media since it doesn't auto connect, mainly because I also have a bluetooth smart watch and LG Tone bluetooth lol. But this app/widget just makes a simple button that connect to my cars bluetooth and i don't have to go to settings, bluetooth, click connect, then go back to start my music app. So basically it does exactly what it needs to do and well. Thanks to the developer

5 ★ I have been looking for a widget like this for a long time. Does exactly what it should. Great work!!!! Unfortunately many people rate this app very low, becouse they don't understand its action.

4 ★ It's the only app which does this in the store, and it works great... BUT it's ugly :/ It just has an outdated look that can and should be improved! A more stylish look (material design) would make it a very popular app. Also a 4x4 widget that shows a list of your devices would be amazing, everyone would want it, and it's not too difficult to do. I really hope you update it.

5 ★ Been using for many months, maybe more than a year. Does what it is supposed to do. Only improvement I can suggest is that the widget show connection status but that is not a big deal.

5 ★ Handy tool to connect reluctant Bluetooth devices. Excellent, simple. One touch, one action. You can add several widgets to your home screen to allow you to choose between several devices/vehicles.

5 ★ I use it to force moto g4 to connect to a Bluetooth adapter in the car. The g4 won't connect automatically once it's connected to the car's phone system. App works perfectly for what i need.

4 ★ Exactly what I was looking for! I have a bluetooth RGB light bulb with speaker. Before I had to open youtube just to go to casting and disconnect the audio from the bulb. Now i can do it from home screen directly. Waiting on that feedback status, it would be very appreciated! 4 stars for now!

5 ★ The easiest app to use. 1- Install the app. 2-Create a widget for any BT device already synced with your phone. DONE! If your BT speaker doesn't auto connect after being turned on, this app is a MUST! 5 stars.....

5 ★ Works perfectly on my Galaxy Nexus 4.2.2. I use it to connect to my Creative D100 speaker which does not auto-connect when switched on.

5 ★ I loved the original version on my Droid RAZR. Now I'm glad to find the updated version for my Moto X. It does w exactly what in want. Thank you!

5 ★ I wanted a small widget to connect to a Bluetooth speaker without having to open Bluetooth settings. This widget works great.

5 ★ Solved my connection issue with motorbike bluetooth headset. Very easy to install and get running. Please read the instructions. Good job guys!!

5 ★ PLEASE READ!!!!!!! Ok people , i love and need music , so much so that i have three pairs of bluetooth headsets (for work) , ifrogz, lg bsn 750 , and altec lansing in ear buds. I use them all day at work , but they all have different battiery life spans , and one i like for the wearhouse and another i proffer to use while driving makeing deliverys . And one is a back up. That said i can use this app,,, after i have paired all three devices with my phone ) to switch between head sets as needed right from my home page thanks to the widget. I set an individual widget for each one of my head sets so 3 in total , and turn on head set im going to use and press the widget on my home screen , witch insistently connects the head set , no need to look threw my setting to connect and it saves time with one push activation right from the home screen , and i just keep on trucking .
