Using Audio Groups Offline Using Bluetooth

Mr_Kindly

Hello,

I have two Google Mini’s that I am trying to use as an audio group. The big issue is I want them for my classroom where they can not connect to the network. That part is fine. I currently use one Mini offline and just connect through Bluetooth and play music from my Spotify app. 

I bought a second mini thinking I could make an audio group between the two and have a speaker in each corner of the room. Is this possible? It seems like the option for audio groups disappears when I go offline and it reverts to just playing out of one speaker. Is there a way to just use Bluetooth while offline through the audio group?

 

I have one of the I think older mini’s (maybe a 1st gen?) and one of the brand new mini nest ones.

 

Thank you!

Sadly this will not work, you will need to be on a network to operate groups, Bluetooth will only send out signal to one device.

That’s a real bummer. Thank you for the reply!
