On a recent post, there were a lot of comments, which said that they were missing the headphones on newer mobile devices.

How many actually use the headphone jack?

I ask, because I have one on my phone, since I really wanted one, but I rarely use it. Like Tops 1/Month.

    What application are you using that doesn’t pause on Bluetooth disconnect? I’ve never had the issue of audio playing from the device when the Bluetooth cuts out

      Definitely a bigger AUX problem since the same volume is typically used for the phone speaker and aux. Bluetooth is a separate media control.

        It shouldn’t be a problem at all, regardless of volume settings, if your phone is working correctly.

          AUX ports and cables wear out relatively quickly. And accidental cord pulls happen.

          Seems like a weird point to dispute. The option for AUX is always a plus, but don’t need to sugar coat it like there aren’t drawbacks.

      Twitch app would do it occasionally but I think it had more to do with the earbuds I had last I tried a long time ago.
