Bose

Hi unfortunately the Bose app which allows you to control your Bose hardware is a poor and a very frustrating experience. App is very buggy, voice assistant no longer works on Bose hardware, asked my friends if they have trouble with their Bose equipment, same issues for them. Such a pity as have been a long time fan of Bose and have 4 Bose products, but if you can’t control your speakers what’s the point? I no longer recommend Bose to friends. Thanks

Bought my first Bose headphones (Ultra). Device is good, HOWEVER, this app totally lets it down massively. The headphone keeps on disconnecting frequently after less than 30mins of use. The phone and the headphones are near to each other, ie within 1-2 meters apart - yet it disconnects. No Interference signals. Same case whether using the headphone and the app on the move or stationary. BOSE FAQ did little to help fix the issue. After some research - a reddit post suggest connecting the device the headphone is connected to (like then iPhone, game device or pc or music device) and then IMMEDIATELY DELETE THE BOSE APP. This worked for some odd reason, BUT it should not be the resort we fall to especially for a a headphone that costs more that $450. BOSE: fix this app issue asap. If nothing improves soon on the app - you can count me out from future BOSE equipment.

Easy to set up and a truly good system for both TV and streaming music. Particularly good when the sub is attached.

Bose needs to get on top of their devices and apps. Just got locked out of the App due to updated terms and conditions. Logging back into my account all my devices are missing. After re-adding all devices, most functions don't work. Can't create a group. Audio settings unavailable etc. deleting and reinstalling the app didn't work. This is the final straw, my (2mth) old sound bar always crashes, my home speaker hangs requiring reboot. Bose may have good sound quality. But very, very poor stability. And, yes all running latest firmware. Using iOS device.

Easy to use

Great and easy app to use. Also has many adjustable features to control your personal experience with your headphones

I “upgraded” from my trusty QuietComfort 35ii to QuietComfort Ultra and was forced to use this app instead of the old one. The new headphones don’t provide buttons to directly adjust the ANC level or turn it off. That would be almost acceptable if the app allowed it to be directly adjusted. It doesn’t. ANC is the only setting that you can’t directly adjust. You instead have to create “modes” that act as presets with different ANC levels and “immersion” settings. You can’t even give your modes their own name, e.g. “Medium” for medium ANC level. Instead, you’re forced to choose from things like “Workout”, “Commute”, etc. I suspect the ANC setting was removed from the main screen because no one would want to use modes and the product manager who cooked up that half-baked feature (which doesn’t include EQ settings) decided to force people to use it as the only means to control ANC. Also, it’s unforgivable in this day and age to not provide dark mode. Perhaps Bose has decided once again, just like modes, that they know what their customers want more than their customers do. It couldn’t be a time/cost thing because it’s such a basic app with a small number of simple screens.

got nothing against it it was just rlly annoying that it wouldn’t detect my speaker

Love the customised equaliser

Really good eq
