BeoRemote App + iOS 12

25 replies

I have recently switched to the B & O app because the Remote App does not work at all and crashes!

But the B & O app does not work as desired and freezes!

I can only advise you to report directly to B & O so that you know that it is not an isolated case!

I’m having the same issue with B&O remote app and IOS 12. 

I have the newer B&O app, but there is no option to select  my

V1-40 TV.  Am I wrong to assume the new B&O app does not support the V1-40?

many thanks and all suggestions welcome. 

 

Cheers, John. 

It should work. New app (1.9.10) works fine with my V1-32 with the latest firmware.

Thank you so much for that - it's good news as the remote app is what I use, given that I can also control iTunes and my Bluray player etc from similar apps on the iPhone.

My V1-40 is running the latest software, and ditto the iPhone; when I opened the B&O app on the iPhone, there were pictures of the latest B&O TV's, but no mention or picture of an V1-40.  

Which TV do you select on the app to control the V1 series - I would assume being Beosystem 4 it would be the same as for example an Beovision 11?

Many thanks again

Ooops.... I feel embarrassingly dense...lol... I was trying to scroll through the list of TV's in the App vertically, and didn't think to scroll horizontally... found the V1 and all connected.

The app looks nice but the functionality seems severely limited compared to the full functionality found in the B&O remote app.

I hope B&O will update it to run with the latest IOS..

Many thanks again... blushing with embarrassment...😉

Hi All

I've updated to iOS 12 and my Bang & Olufsen app works fine with BeoSound 2 & Beoplay M5. I don't use the TV remote functions

Thanks for the insight Opman, but this thread is specifically about the BeoRemote app and television control, not the Bang & Olufsen app, (which has consequently also stopped working, for me at least, to control the TV functions on a V1/Beosystem 4 since the iOS 12 update).

I am having the same issue with the new Bang & Olufsen app, it the app freezes when you attempt to control the TV. Putting the individual device into standby doesn't freeze the App. 

But to echo Boxsti, it definitely needs reporting to support.
