3.16. Companion Device Pairing

Android includes support for companion device pairing to more effectively manage association with companion devices and provides the CompanionDeviceManager API for apps to access this feature.

If device implementations support the companion device pairing feature, they:

• [C-1-1] MUST declare the feature flag FEATURE_COMPANION_DEVICE_SETUP .
• [C-1-2] MUST ensure the APIs in the android.companion package is fully implemented.
• [C-1-3] MUST provide user affordances for the user to select/confirm a companion device is present and operational.
