IT House reported on June 27 that at last year’s Google I/O conference, Google said that it would allow more devices to support the Fast Pair function, including smart watches using Wear OS and certain partner manufacturers. Car. At CES, Google announced that it will further expand the products supported by the Quick Pair feature, such as TVs, Chromebook and smart homes that support the Matter standard. Google also recently said that Chrome OS devices will support the feature this summer. Now, in the Google Play system update log, there are finally clues that Wear OS supports the quick pairing function.
Yesterday, Google released the Google Play update log for June. In the "Device Connection" section of the log, there is this paragraph: " The fast pairing feature on Wear OS supports quick pairing of headphones that it has been connected to before." And the small print at the bottom of the page adds that the quick pairing function will be implemented through version 22.24 of Google Play.
IT House has learned that version 22.24 of Google Play has been pushed to some users last week. Once the update is widely launched, users may use Wear OS smart watches to quickly connect to previously paired headphones.
XDA said that Google may be preparing for the upcoming Pixel Watch, because the Pixel Watch product page on the Google Store writes that the watch will provide a quick pairing function to help users quickly connect headphones, watches, and mobile phones to each other. Currently, Google has not revealed whether the feature will be available on other Wear OS smartwatches. But XDA thinks it’s unlikely that Google will limit the quick pairing feature to the Pixel Watch, as it’s a very useful feature for all smartwatches powered by Wear OS. At the same time, XDA also believes that this feature should be launched by Pixel Watch, and before Google's Pixel Watch smart watch is launched, , this feature may not appear on other Wear OS smart watches.
