Pixel Bluetooth Diagnostics runs media and call tests to isolate connection failures
↗
Google's Pixel phones include a Bluetooth Diagnostics tool that runs tests for media audio and calls to help isolate connection issues before resorting to resets.
For engineers supporting Android devices, this gives a structured first step in Bluetooth troubleshooting, reducing guesswork. It also highlights that the tool is Pixel-specific and cannot fix hardware or firmware issues, so it's a diagnostic aid, not a repair tool.

Bluetooth Diagnostics is available on Pixel 6 and newer, including Fold models.
It offers tests for media audio, calls, and other problems, accessible via Settings > Connected devices.
It cannot repair dead earbuds or fix firmware, and Google still recommends basic fixes like toggling Bluetooth and re-pairing.
