M5 alarm Tunein problem

44 replies
Are you able to listen to Tune In on the M5 normally without an alarm?

Yes - I can just press the top and Tunein plays. Quite frustrating as I’d like to use it as an alarm!

Yes I’ve done that a couple of times. I’ve even reset the  M5, uninstalled the app on iPhine and iPad, tried it on Android. I think I’ve done everything now!

Apart  from directing me to one of your earlier suggestions, B&O support have been very quiet since I reported it to them. 

I also have 4 other products in the app which don't have a radio function and I wondered if that could be the problem. So I removed them all and just added the M5 but still no luck.

Hope you do not mind another thought that is probably wrong......Have you created any Favorite stations in Tune In? When I set an alarm I have to select one of my favorites.

I do appreciate every suggestion! I have a station set as favourite (FIP) and that is the one I am able to select for the alarm in the M5 itself way down in the deep menus with tiny fonts that are almost impossible to see at night on a phone. You can see it in one of my original screenshots.

Il y a un truc qui cloche .... is your app itself connected to TuneIn (app settings, Radio), more or less what MJ was suggesting? If your app itself is not connected to TuneIn then it cannot select a TuneIn favorite.

Is your B&O App itself connected to TuneIn as per previous requests?

So, there is no "Radio" option in the app for either the M3 or M5. Therefore the App cannot connect in the first place. However, in the M3 and M5 settings it IS connected to TuneIn.

it's exactly the same as in the screenshot above.
