Google Fast Pair is an always-on feature that simplifies the Bluetooth pairing process by detecting and connecting to nearby accessories with a tap.
It is embedded in Google Play services and offers additional features such as logging paired accessories, displaying battery levels, and aiding in audio sourcing.
Fast Pair is supported by various Bluetooth accessories, Android devices, Wear OS devices, Chromebooks, and Google TV/Android TV products. Partner manufacturers must certify their devices to claim Fast Pair support.
