We all know 1+5 is having Bluetooth 5.0 which can let you connect 2 devices at one time but how to use it?
Galaxy S8 has an inbuilt option known as "Dual Audio" which lets you do that!
Any playstore app that you recommend?
Thanks in advance!

S* has it because samsung made "its own" software for dual audio. Bluetooth 5 is not enabled until Android O. Current version of android does not support BL 5

Do you mind explaining me where I can find it? I searched through the developer settings and didn't know what I have to choose/enable to enable dual bluetooth casting.
Of course not :) Well go to developer settings obviously and then below the option of the USB configuration, you'll find all Bluetooth specific options. The option you're looking for is called something like "Mode for bluetooth audio channel" and there you can select mono or stereo.

I think what @TheDj408 wants to achieve is bluetooth streaming/casting to two different devices (speakers, etc.), which is different from the bluetooth audio mode options you've mentioned.

That's the same thing I want to do. Basically stream music on two devices at the same time. I don't even know if the Galaxy S8 is capable of doing that or if it also just got streaming the audio to one and everything else to other device.

So current solution with developer settings just enable this mode. I hope someone will look into it when Oreo gets more spread.

That is not a solution, that will just change the bluetooth audio output mode (between mono and stereo sound) but only for the device it is already streaming to. It will not change the number of devices you can stream to.
