Previously, in quick settings, you could tap Bluetooth to turn it on or off.

Now when you tap Bluetooth in quick settings you can do much more:

• Turn Bluetooth on or off
• Pair a new device
• Switch paired devices
• See remaining battery on paired devices
• Disconnect or forget a paired device
• For a paired device, change sound settings and access to contacts and history

Now, even when your mobile network is unavailable, you can send SMS. Your phone will automatically connect to a satellite, letting you send text messages.

You’ll see a message on your lockscreen and in the Messages app , notifying you that you’re connected to a satellite.

Quick settings now has a tile you can add to control hearing devices. Tap the tile to peek at hearing device battery levels, change device settings, and turn other audio features like Live Caption on or off.

You can also switch between preset sound profiles that automatically adjust your hearing device based on your listening environment. Get presets for:

• Restaurants
• Work
• TV
• Outdoors
• All-round (neutral, balanced)

• Now it’s easier to read using font scaling that prevents text from being too large.
• You can now connect modern refreshable Braille displays to your phone’s screen reader over USB or Bluetooth with Braille Display HID support.

Find Device can now help you locate:

• Your phone, even when offline
• Headphones, tracker tags, and other compatible devices, even when powered off

• To slow down phone theft attacks, adaptive authentication now locks the screen after 5 failed authentication attempts (PIN or biometrics).
• For apps designed for Android 15, access your saved passwords with facial recognition, a fingerprint, or your screen lock to log in. If you accidentally dismiss the passkey prompt, you’ll still find passkey or other suggestions in autofill screens, like keyboard suggestions or dropdown menus, making signing in easy.
