I know there are threads about this but I didn't have much luck in searching.

Are there any Android apps that can turn your device into a USB transport and just pass bits out the USB port for decoding by a separate DAC?

And is there anything besides UAPP (I think that's the name) that works with Tidal hifi? Thanks

Using Android 8, I can play over the USB to my DAC.
Android probably has become USB Audio Class 1 compliant

Thanks. Not sure what this means. If you can play over USB to a DAC why is the playback limited to 96KHz? Where is the bottleneck?

24 bits / 96 kHz is the max that fits into UAC1
UAC2 allows for higher sample rates.
