Hi all
New beta is out with a configurable widget for controlling your setup. Touch to join, Beosound Shape sound modes and other options. We no longer open the app, but send the command directly from the widget, based on your feedback this was what you were looking for. You will find the configuration here settings->widget, please let us know what other features you would like to see here. Furthermore, we have released a radio service for the Beosound Balance, you can now assign radio stations to the favorite buttons without using Google.
Best regards
Thomas, Bang & Olufsen
