How do I enable AirPlay for audio files on iPhone 11 Pro?
I have an
iphone 11 Pro and a pair of hearing aids that are blue-tooth connected to my
iphone. When I open a track on Apple Music or most podcasts the Airplay symbol comes
up on the screen offering me the option of listening “loud” through my iphone’s
speaker or “silent” through my hearing aids. (Opening one of the BBC Sounds “channels”
brings up the Available Devices symbol, which gives access to the Airplay
symbol). So far – so easy!
I also have
some audio tracks which are saved on my iphone as Files (don’t ask why!!). When
I need to listen to one, I open the file, press the “Go” arrow and it plays.
But I have to listen through my iphone’s speaker – the Files app doesn’t offer
me the Airplay or the Available Devices symbol which would enable me to switch the
audio output to my hearing aids.
A solution
would be to have an Airplay or Available Devices symbol always available on my
Home page so that I can switch to my hearing aids when I want to listen to a
File audio track.
Is that
possible and how do I create it?
