OpenFreebuds for Linux

OpenFreebuds is a Linux app designed to control HUAWEI FreeBuds earphones directly from your PC.

This means you do not need to use the mobile app to change settings or check important information.

The app gives you full access to your earphones’ features right on your computer.

With OpenFreebuds, you can see the exact battery level of each earbud.

It also shows the current noise cancellation mode through a dynamic system tray icon, which updates in real time.

You can easily turn noise cancellation on or off and adjust other settings like the built-in equalizer and gesture controls.

The app lets you customize how your earphones work without needing your phone.

OpenFreebuds offers a tray menu where you can quickly check battery status and control noise cancellation modes.

It also supports changing the voice language on your earphones, but this feature does not work on all devices.

The app includes a device settings window for adjusting presets and gesture actions.

For more advanced users, OpenFreebuds includes a built-in HTTP server that allows remote control and scripting.

It also supports global hotkeys to control some features, but this is currently limited to the Xorg display server.

Users running Wayland should check the FAQ for guidance since hotkeys are not yet supported natively.

Overall, OpenFreebuds is a useful Linux tool for HUAWEI FreeBuds owners who want full control of their earphones without relying on a mobile app.

It fits well in categories like Settings, Hardware Settings, and System, and works closely with QT technology to manage headset and earphones hardware features.
