[BUG] buds2 pro and "seamless connection"

Closed this issue · 2 comments

Describe the bug
I can only connect the buds to another device after "forgetting" them on a previous device. The "seamless connection" seems not useful.

To Reproduce
The "seamless connection" is enabled by default, so I think this is trivially reproducible.

Expected behavior
I can discover and connect to the buds when they are already connected to other devices?

Desktop (please complete the following information):
macOS 13.0

  • Application version: 4.6

Log files
application.log

Samsung explains about the seamless connection that Buds will switch between devices that have "signed in to the same Samsung account". I don't see any option with Samsung account in the client so I think this issue is rather a feature request?

The "seamless connection" setting just flips a setting somewhere in the earbud's firmware. Because of that, I don't have any influence over its behavior.

The auto-switch feature, which is part of a seamless connection, requires a Samsung Account. I looked into reverse-engineering their private API; however, it is too complex and would require more work than it is worth.
