B&O App version 5.90

53 replies
Well there has been one update if not two since I joined this topic and the last mentioned had Sound mentioned, but zilch for my needs ,so as a final summary I have to accept that they aren't interested and that the Care aspect is really just a 'pass the buck' stepping stone and say good luck to B&O....I will live with my older products til they go to hifi heaven and replace the Tv with something else when the time comes. I was very impressed by the Theatre when I attended its launch here and wrote accordingly, but much has been written about its own software problems that make an £8K [at the moment} investment too risky.
I’m experiencing some problems with the last update, when joining another room using the app the volume starts at 0, ignoring default volume.

A first for for me is that the Beosound Core shows a option to set connected speakers but does not appear to do anything. Also found out that one wifi error and it won’t reconnect (redoing wifi), this is annoying.

Album arts only shows with radio, new layout removed the speaker setting option for my V1.

The app experience is not giving any confidence to buy any integrated product at all, software backend is flacky, app navigation is mediocre and style is playful. Nothing to write home about.
As ridiculous as the need for it is, I’ve written a utility the you can use to clear the play queue on pre-Mozart products.  It’s available here:
