When you turn off an option in Settings, you expect it to stay that way until you decide to turn it back on. But that may not soon be the case for everything on Android.
Android Authority reports that the upcoming Android 15 will have an automatic feature to turn Bluetooth on when you turn it off. Among the operating system’s lines of code is the phrase “turn_on_bluetooth_auto tomorrow.”
Google’s upcoming “Find My Device” network appears to be one of the reasons for Bluetooth turning back on automatically. The network will use the Bluetooth of all available Android devices to search for lost devices nearby.
A new warning box will also announce that the Quick Share feature will also only work if Bluetooth is running.
However, there appears to be an option to disable automatic Bluetooth wake-up. The feature is primarily intended for Android 15, but it is possible that Google will launch it on other versions of the operating system as well.
In other Android software news, Samsung’s Galaxy AI features will come to many more devices.
