My phone has a setting called Dual Channel Network Acceleration within the WiFi setup menu. Once you enable it, it shows a short list of apps that can be individually permitted to use this feature -- Firefox, Chrome, Internet (Native browser) and WhatsApp.
I would like to know what this does, and how to take advantage of it. At the moment it doesn't seem to be making any difference -- the mobile data connection icon in the status bar turns off when WiFi is enabled, just as it does with the Dual Channel switch set to OFF.
Also, there is a setting under Developer Options to keep data on even when WiFi is on, but that doesn't seem to be making any difference either.
Has anyone actually used one of these features, and how?
Edit: Since certain apps are listed under the Dual Channel option, does this mean that any developer can build an app that uses it? Where can one learn about the Android API for this?
