Where Are Auracast Broadcast Settings Stored?
Auracast Bluetooth broadcasts are tuned from Bluetooth settings on supported Android phones. There are no files; broadcasts are live audio.

Auracast turns Bluetooth into a local radio station. Airports, gyms, and hearing-loop venues broadcast audio that any number of LE Audio receivers can join, and phones can both receive and sometimes transmit. Everything is configured in Bluetooth settings; no audio file ever exists.
Support is the catch. Both the phone and the earbuds need Bluetooth LE Audio hardware plus a software switch the maker actually shipped. Pixels and recent Samsung flagships lead, with others trailing by model year. Check the Bluetooth menus on your exact devices before promising silent-TV audio at a party.

Live broadcasts only, nothing is stored. Availability varies by phone model, earbuds, and update level. Look for LE Audio or broadcast options inside Bluetooth settings.
Frequently asked questions
How do I join an Auracast broadcast?
Open Bluetooth settings and look for LE Audio, broadcasts, or a scan option on a supported phone with compatible earbuds. Venues publish a code or QR for private streams. Keep the phone updated, since makers roll Auracast support out model by model.
Can my phone start a broadcast?
Yes, on phones with LE Audio transmission support, usually Pixels and recent Galaxy flagships. The broadcast name and code are set in Bluetooth settings while transmitting. Anything in range with Auracast receivers can tune in unless you set a private code.
