Google has taken advantage of the U.s. launch of their new headphones Pixel Buds (2020)after being anunciandos six months ago, to present the latest developments that will begin to get new accessories with Fast Pair.

Fast Pair it is the proposal of Google to to simplify the pairing of Bluetooth devices in Android 6.0 or higher, to nothing more turning on an accessory to pair automatically with our Android with a single touch and it also syncs with your other devices.

Well, Fast Pair receives a major update after being launched this technology over two years ago. Google adds three important news that improve still much more to these accessories through their new roles.

Find your accessory lost

Locator Fast Pair

The first novelty, and that opens the new Pixel Buds is your new locator. If the headphones are still attached to the mobile, but do not know where we have left we can do that sound, and if they are totally cordless (no wires) we can make sound only the right or the left.

In the coming months, will also allow to query the last known location of the headphones from Find my device if you have activated the location history.

Battery notification

Another very important innovation is that when you open the case of the wireless headphones, you will receive a notification to the mobile to inform us about the level of battery of each device (right-click, left-button and the case). We will also receive a notification when the battery of some of these items is running low, to put it to charge.

Manage your accessories

Customize Fast Pair

Finally, the configuration will customize the name of our Bluetooth accessory adding our name after the match. For example, Pixel Buds will be renamed the “Alex’s Pixel Buds”, but we can edit after the name. In addition, in Android 10, also you can adjust the settings of the headset, as the pairing with the Wizard of Google and access to ‘Find my device’ from the details view of the device.

Google reports that the first devices to benefit from these developments are the headphones totally wireless Harmon Kardon FLY and the new Google Pixel Buds. The company expects to add more improvements and more devices compatible with Fast Pair.
