Win11 has greatly changed the interface interaction of the system, and the visual sense of the UI has become more modern. However, does this mean that win11 is easier to use than before? Obviously not. At least in some basic interactions, win11 is far from enough - for example, the management and switching of Bluetooth devices.

Win11 still cannot connect and switch Bluetooth devices at any time

We know that in many mobile phones, we can easily manage and switch Bluetooth devices. For example, after pulling down the notification bar of the mobile phone, you can click the small triangle next to the Bluetooth switch, and then expand the Bluetooth list, in which you can quickly connect, disconnect and select Bluetooth devices. However, this cannot be achieved in Win 11. Even if there is a Bluetooth icon in the taskbar of Win 11, if you want to manage Bluetooth, you can only operate in the settings panel, rather than directly pop up the shortcut panel like WiFi.

Win11 must go to the settings panel to manage Bluetooth

It has to be said that the hard injury of win11 is very unpleasant. In particular, friends who often use Bluetooth headsets and Bluetooth keyboard and mouse will certainly understand how inconvenient it is. How to solve this problem? Maybe you should try this gadget.

This is a small open source software. Its function is to generate a Bluetooth icon in the taskbar of win11. Click it to pop up the list of Bluetooth devices, which is more convenient to manage.

The use of toohtray is very simple. You can run it directly without installation. It can be seen that after using toothtray, you can directly manage Bluetooth devices and connect or disconnect these Bluetooth devices at any time, which is much more convenient than the setting panel of win11.

In general, toothtray does solve the problem that win11 is inconvenient to manage Bluetooth. However, it is also reported that win11 will add a Bluetooth shortcut panel similar to the current WiFi management in the future version. At present, the new function is under test. I hope the new version of win11 will bring a surprise.
