A method for managing acoustic feedback in real-time audio communications in a communications system comprising a first communication device comprising a loudspeaker, and a second communication device comprising a microphone, the method comprising: determining, by means of a detection module, whether the first communication device is in loudspeaker mode based on hardware information in the first communication device; determining, by means of the detection module, whether the first communication device is in real-time audio communications with the second communication device based on connection information in the first communication device; determining, by means of the detection module, whether the first communication device and the second communication device are in a same acoustic space based on sensor information in the first communication device; upon determining by means of the detection module that: the first communication device is in loudspeaker mode, the first communication device is in real-time audio communications with the second communication device, and the first communication device and the second communication device are in the same acoustic space, providing, to a mitigation module, a request signal for requesting one or more measures against acoustic feedback, the method further comprising: determining, by means of the detection module, a distance between the first communication device and the second communication device based on sensor information in the first communication device; characterized by: determining, by means of the detection module, a playback volume of the first communication device based on hardware information in the first communication device; and determining, by means of the detection module, a microphone gain of the second communication device based on hardware information in the second communication device, wherein the first communication device and the second communication device are determined to be in the same acoustic space if the distance between the first communication device and the second communication device is less than a distance threshold, the distance threshold being based on the determined playback volume of the first communication device and the determined microphone gain of the second communication device. determining, by means of a detection module, whether the first communication device is in loudspeaker mode based on hardware information in the first communication device;
