BeoSound Stage setup without Google Account - cannot get back to settings without factory resetting ?

3 replies

Afternoon All,

Ive installed my new BeoSound Stage (on the BV7-40 stand thanks to STB Brackets) on my LG CX 55. It looks awesome.

As we are an Apple  HomeKit home i skipped the google option on setup (used the ‘connect to airplay speaker’ option on BeoSound Setup) and all is working well. BUT the way it looks i can never get back into the B&O App to adjust the settings .... because the phone only ever saw the Stage when it was connected as an Airplay speaker.

Im thinking that i may factory reset and go the google option on setup just to have an always accessible B&O App to adjust the Stage settings.

Has anyone else gone down the path of google-less setup - and is having the same ‘cannot back into Stage setting on B&O App’ without a factory reset each time ?

Just to close this one off - I’d reset up the stage with Google Home steps and I can get back into the Stage settings in the App now.

The B&O help page for a google less setup on the stage needs to be a bit more explicit that yes you can set it up without google (using the airplay speaker option from iOS wifi settings) but you’ll never get back in there !!
