My android phone does updates automatically.Today downloaded version 2.10.1.24350

Is this latest version ? (just to check if it does updates properly)

I cannot get the app to control my BeoSystem 4500 and BeoSound 2300, each connected to an NL/ML converter. The app shows the source and track that is playing. However, there is no control from the app. I can, however, control the BeoSystem 4500 and BeoSound 2300 from NL devices when the NL/ML converters are assigned as linked sources. I can also control the BeoSystem 4500 and BeoSound 2300 from BLGW macros. It's just the B&O app that doesn't provide control.

that discussion is exactly what I mean. Within Bang&Olufsen they probably have similar discussions, if needed or not going on for ever.  There is no leadership, no vision, no strategy regarding the B&O App, when you see how the App is lovelessly pieced together and how slowly new functionalities and improvements are implemented. The result is an App that gets mainly negative feedbacks at App stores, because there are many frustrated users and no positiv convinced community supporting the App. But Bang&Olufsen probably does not care, because their focus is selling nice carved Aluminium and Plastic, that good software is the game changer is not realised.

I see it totally different. Just look at the new great improvements of the logo background and the loading spinner. Really great, I love the B&O development team they really do a great job! Unbelievable, these new features will really help me! It's such a nice user experience to watch these moving lines, who needs a working app? 😕

I agree with your irony.

Or in short, drop EVERY "improvement" of the user interface until the basic functionality works flawlessly.

Put it like this: my Bluetooth connection to the Core is dropping every five minutes. I seriously don't give a *** (that is putting it as mildly as I possibly can) about some new picture, animation or whatever until I can play my music without interruption.

I think there is a serious need to fire some people that simply don't understand neither the user expectations nor the financial situation of B&O.

Can’t add to play queue.

Crashes and becomes unresponsive.

No art work.

Volume unavailable.

Close app and restart no success.

2 years later and still a useless and unreliable app.

Shameful.

Really disgraceful.

B&O should j u st add Roon capability.

Just wondering what you mean by that?

Since quite a while now Roon has been supporting Chromecast devices as an endpoint.

Just use Roon and the B&O devices and you are done....if you want to skip the Bang &Olufsen app.
