Disconnect, reconnect or stop sharing

Choose whether to stop one receiver connection or end the entire capture session.

ActionResult
Receiver-row disconnect iconCloses the selected transport. Valid sharing consent can remain for up to five idle minutes, allowing a reconnect without a fresh sharing prompt. Android can revoke it earlier.
Tap the receiver againReconnects using saved credentials where valid. AirSound requests missing permissions or fresh sharing consent when needed.
Red Stop sharing cardStops capture and receiver playback. The next app-audio session needs fresh Android consent.
Notification Disconnect / power actionEnds capture and authorization as well as the receiver connection.
Pause the music appStops or pauses the source. The receiver connection may stay active until you disconnect or a configured silence timeout occurs.
Stopping sharing stops sound on the receiver

Your music app may continue playing on the phone. Optional Pause music on disconnect can request a pause only when Track details access and the source’s media controls permit it.

If music still comes from your phone while also playing on the speaker, that can be normal Android playback capture. AirSound copies eligible audio rather than always replacing the phone’s own output. Receiver volume remains independent.

Stop sharing ends receiver audioEarlier AirSound capture using a controlled test receiver. It demonstrates the red stop control, not a physical HomePod connection.
