Chromecast V2 (2015) is visible after a Bluetooth scan from phone

[danielulfe]

Hello everybody.

Recently I detects from my Android phone scaning for Bluetooth device a name that is my Chromecast V2 (2015). This device has 1.16.44433 build revision.

Also I have 1st generation Chromecast with build revision 1.17.46278, but bluetooth scan from my phone find nothing.

Somebody knows what is the utility of bluetooth function? It's a anounced feature by Google? It's possible that Google are thinking to release some new features in next days?

I review a lot of documentation googling on internet but I can't find anything anouncing bluetooth feature for Chromecast V2 release.
