This toggle is annoying because what was once 1 press to turn on BT is now 2. It gets me every day.

You're not wrong, but you just reminded me to setup some Tasker events to manage my BT enabled state.

I'm glad I'm not the only one feeling this way.

It's so Google can keep tracking you via Bluetooth and WiFi, which they hope you forgot to turn off said tracking option in settings, and they are making it difficult to turn off all the way.

So, maybe a weird question, but what are you doing with your phone exactly that you need to turn on Bluetooth on a daily basis?

This was pointed out already that I could just unpair my personal phone to my speaker, but I have 2 phones. I have a speaker at work both are paired to. So every day I turn bluetooth off so when I turn my speaker on I'm not announcing connection to my personal phone because it violates cell phone policy. Because it announces connection to both, I turn bluetooth off before I go inside. Since I have a work phone, I'm good to use that one, just not my personal phone.
