It would be nice when you could sort your favorites alphabetical by song or artist. Now it's only by artist.

Quite a challenge to achieve "Less is More" while having the Beovirus.

The "Now Playing" screen is not correct designed.

The device is an Apple iPad mini. 

We have fixed the invisible controls on re-arrange and several other places. This will be released today. 

@Martin: We will look into the iPad issues you describe. 

@MircoHH: This is a good point, I will take it up with our designer. I will take a look at your iPad mini design issue. 

@Mbolo01: Yes, we knew this would be an issue. We will probably put a slight gradient on it to make the control visible 

@Hiort: If the name has not been changed it will not be shown. This is to avoid duplicate names. I will take a look at the name edit missing, perhaps it is also white

@Dyssegaard: Wow, you have been thourough, much appreciated. I will go through you observations

@Beobuddy: Noted, let me take a look at the sorting. 

Why is it the app freezing, when there is a working WLAN but no internet connection (after 2 to 6 minutes)?
Is it not possible to display at least an error message „No internet connection“ instead of freezing and leaving the user alone, wondering if something wrong with the iPhone / iPad or with the B&O app or with ...???

May I ask for an easier to set timer? Maybe I'm missing something but right now you have to go through a lot of menus just to set a standby in 20 minutes timer for example ;)

Thanks!

Similar question for Alarms. Here is my use case. I have programmed the alarms for every day of the week to wake me up. However on a holiday, or when I am working from home, I want to be able to easily disactivate the alarm for that particular day. In the current setup, activating and desactivating the alarms is hidden far away in the Product Configuration pages. No way that I can explain this to my wife.... far to complicated and not self-explanatory compared to the ease of setting alarms f.i. on an iPhone.

Additionally the setting only allows to switch on/off all alarms at once, does not allow to do this for one alarm...

I would be grateful if this could be reviewed!

I totally agree. The alarm functions has to be much easier to configure and to access.

easy sleep timer function in the main menu ... a dream demanded for years and not fulfilled :-((

I don’t know what you think is the ‘main menu’.

Here is how it looks when I choose my Essence as a product - I can manage ‘Standby’, ‘All Standby’ and more from there

But maybe you mean something different?

@YannChris: We changed the picture type to one with a transparent background and have played with the settings. What iPad are you using?

Hi,

I use an Ipad Air running ios 12.4.

I also noticed that artwork are not shown on the playing queue view.

Kind regards,

Yann.
