Given the time we are coming, when everyone is encouraged to stay home, we should look for alternative forms of entertainment . Luckily, our mobiles are full of options, beyond what we imagine. Huawei phones include a Party Mode, which allows you to connect several devices at the same time so that the music plays at the same time by everyone at the same time.
The correct thing is that families stay at home, to avoid further spread of the Coronavirus . This battle has radically changed our way of life and the future impact of the State of Alarm dictated by the government is still unpredictable. However, the Spanish are still looking for ways to make this home confinement more entertaining.
What is Huawei Party Mode
Party Mode or Party Mode is a function that allows you to share audio with multiple mobile devices over a network. This allows multiple devices to simultaneously play audio streams from different channels, this mode provides users with a 360 degree listening experience.
The primary device can share a QR code with multiple secondary devices, or share its Wi-Fi access point, with secondary devices through NFC. Huawei indicates that a device supports this function , only if it brings the app installed as standard. Otherwise, Party Mode is not available for your model. To use the Huawei Party Mode we have to follow the following steps:
How to activate it
We enable NFC and Huawei Beam for all devices that want to join the party. To activate the NFC we can do it from Settings / Device connection / NFC and turn on the switch. To activate Huawei Beam, we go to Settings / Device connection / Huawei Beam.
Activate permissions and scan QR
Now we open the app and confirm all related terms of service and permissions. After passing all the screens, we touch “Start”. Then we touch Start Party to create a network connection. If we tap on “Create Hotspot” the “Activate WLAN” dialog will be displayed and tap on allow. By default, a friend can scan the QR code to join the Party mode.
Audio Channels
After configuring the network, we tap on the three dots in the upper right corner of the master phone screen, and select “Select Channel.” Then you can touch phones in different positions to select audio channels for them. The icon for a specific phone turns pink once selected. There are seven channels available and the number of phones on each channel is displayed . This simulates 7.1 audio so we can play music or movies at full volume and achieve a 360-degree audio environment.
Join the party
Once the previous steps are completed, we will have to enable Party Mode on slave phones . For this we play in “Join the Party”. For this we have three methods. to choose: Scan QR code, Connect using NFC and Connect manually. It is important that if the chosen method is NFC, the top of two phones is tapped to connect them.
