Abstract

In some implementations, a method includes initiating, at a first device of a group of devices, a group voice chat between the first device and one or more other devices of the group of devices in a Bluetooth broadcast, where audio transmissions of the group voice chat are transmitted in a sequence of time intervals, and where the time intervals include subintervals. The method further includes allocating a first subinterval of the subintervals to the first device, the first device transmits a first audio message during the first subinterval, and where the first audio message is broadcast to the group of devices. The method further includes allocating a second subinterval of the subintervals to a second device of the group of devices, where the second device transmits a second audio message during the second subinterval, and where the second audio message is broadcast to the group of devices.
