Thanks for nothing but frustration
This did absolutely nothing, and there was no helpful information at all in the text of the application. It just said no device found, and then no information on how to find it. Or in my case, because I’m in the country with no Wi-Fi, and use my personal hotspot with Bluetooth on my iPhone, no information at all on where to look for this information required. Nothing worked. Five dollars wasted on this guy. If you want money, think about your customer and user experience and anticipate roblems like this right in the application and how to fix them. I was literally better off before I even tried this. Waste of money. Waste of time.
Does not work
I am very disappointed. Don't waste your money on this app.
Inoperable
After easily pairing The soundtouch speaker to my phone via Bluetooth the application is impossible to do the same therefore never giving you access to the features you bought it for in the first place it is a terrible waste of money and a scam worthy of fraud.
Not happy
What a joke! Just waisted $5.. I need to use it as my regular remote, but all it does is the same features as free app! Why $5?
Terrible waste of 4.99
Does nothing the free Bose app doesn't, and is harder to use. Don't waste your money
Lame Sauce
You have to be a network engineer to use this app. If you don't know the IP address of Bose speaker.
