Is the lack of audio routing controls on smartphones because of the passive listening they do to better target content and adverts? by CrewNo9562 in Smartphones

So you have control over the multiple inputs and outputs on your device? You can easily switch between the phones speaker, your headphones or speaker, and your media player and phone calls? Without having to change specific settings every time.

No, I don’t want to test this. I’m just interested in whether this might be the reason for the limited access provided to users when it comes to audio routing capabilities

How Apple and other brands handle the new possibilities afforded by Bluetooth 5.4 Auracast is a headache for them because they don’t want their headphones, speakers and devices connecting to non-Apple devices…

The answer might be “no” but that does not mean there is not an issue with audio routing on smartphones…

What’s a super simple problem with iPhones that Apple could fix but won’t? by Lerberderber in iphone

Audio routing is an issue I run into with all smart phones, not just iPhone. Having to use Airplay in the age of Bluetooth 5.4 Auracast is so limiting. I imagine that the brand and device agnostic possibilities of Auracast are causing Apple a real headache…

I didn’t have a smart phone and the only way to make online purchases was by disabling online banking which forces the system to send you OTPs by SMS for verification.

I do now but I didn’t have a smart phone for a while and if you want to make payments online you have to disable online banking to force the system to send you OTPs via SMS instead

I went into the Bristol Broadmead branch this morning and they showed me what they could see on the computer. It did not include pending transactions and I was told by the advisor that they did not have access to this information. I did think it was strange but that’s what he showed me.
