## Sound Bar Controller Reviews in United States

### ***-- "volume has a mind of its own"
I'm not sure if anyone else is experiencing this issue, but it feels like someone is controlling my soundbar. Whenever I try to raise or lower the volume, it either continues to increase or decrease without stopping.

By the way, I've already checked for any issues with my phone case by removing it, and that didn't change anything, so I believe this must be a glitch with an app. Please address this problem.
-- Marty608, 2025-02-27

### **--- "Will not connect to wifi"
New version of app doesn’t let me connect to wifi no matter what I do.  Please fix.
-- Technowoman, 2025-02-22

### *---- "Need to search everytime"
Everytime needs searching
-- Chill pill pill, 2025-02-15

### **--- "Poor"
This application is very poorly written. It’s very hard to navigate.
-- Bubbles51, 2025-02-01

### **--- "Not so sure about this one"
I’ve had connectivity problems almost the entire time I’ve owned this
-- Jg420we, 2025-01-31

### ***-- "Good but firmware could be better."
it turns off while you’re watching TV.
-- Max Dezine, 2025-01-26

### **--- "Can’t use app"
This app worked fine for the most part, had a few connectivity issues in the past but nothing too crazy. But now I literally can’t use the app. It crashes immediately every time I try to open it, and deleting it and then reinstalling it doesn’t help.
-- austinbucco, 2025-01-20

### *---- "Terrible"
The yas 209 doesn’t work with this app. And the yas 209 doesn’t work period. Avoid Yamaha product
-- nope69.0, 2024-12-14

### *---- "The app is just fine, sound bar is subpar"
Sound bar does dumb stuff like turning off when I pause the show I’m watching or making the Alexa features harder than they need to be.
-- Yamah ats-1090 is bad, 2024-11-20

### ***** "Uncle Pete"
Really good sound great app to control sound with phone 
But the remote control isn’t that good changed batteries three times it works but sometimes have to push them 2-3 times
-- unionville77, 2024-11-14
