About this tag
The Telephony and Media Audio Profile (TMAP) is a Bluetooth LE Audio profile that enables simultaneous high-quality stereo playback and microphone use on Windows 11. Historically, Bluetooth headsets on Windows had to switch to a low-quality, mono telephony mode when the mic was active, degrading audio for voice calls or game chat. With TMAP support in Windows 11 builds 22H2 and later, compatible headsets using the LC3 codec can maintain stereo audio while the microphone is in use, eliminating the trade-off between audio fidelity and voice clarity. This improvement requires both a supported Windows version and Bluetooth hardware with LE Audio drivers. The profile is particularly beneficial for gaming, voice calls, and any scenario where users need both clear voice and high-quality audio simultaneously.
