So, picked up a second pair of Beats in the sales. Another set of the wireless Solo 3s, which, according to the internet, are now compatible with audio streaming.
Pair them up, start playing a song, and it only comes through one set. Look in the silly little audio menu (you know, the thing that comes up when you tap the middle icon in itunes), and the SHARE AUDIO button is there, but when I click it, it just brings up the "Bring another set of headphones close to this iPhone to share audio" and does nothing. Like, they're already connected. I don't need to bring them anywhere, just play the damn song.
What I've noticed in that silly little menu is that the SHARE AUDIO button only appears when I'm playing music through the new set of Beats. Do I need to update the old one, or what? Going to try that now, but so far this has been a
nightmare. It just works, amirite.
EDIT: Updated the firmware on my old Beats (big fan of how no troubleshooting guide mentions they've got firmware
) and turned everything off and on again and for some reason now it works! Relief.
