### Bluetooth device battery level reporting added
-If a bluetooth device supports battery level reporting, the level is now available in the device's card object properties with the `bluetooth.battery` key. The property can be read with `pactl list cards`, for example. TODO: Is the battery level only available when the card profile is set to HFP?

## Notes for application developers
### Bluetooth device battery level reporting added
-If a bluetooth device supports battery level reporting, the level is now reported to BlueZ. Applications can get the battery level using the [[BlueZ D-Bus Battery API|https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/bluetooth/bluez.git/tree/doc/battery-api.txt]].

+The battery level is also available in the device's card object properties with the `bluetooth.battery` key. There are no notifications when the property value changes, however (bug reported: [[#1314|https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pulseaudio/pulseaudio/-/issues/1314]]).
## Notes for packagers
-(nothing here yet)
+### Bluetooth battery level via BlueZ requires enabling an experimental feature
+
+The BlueZ D-Bus Battery API is still marked as an experimental feature, and if you wish to have PulseAudio use it, BlueZ will have to be built with the feature explicitly enabled.
