Update APP of the B&O 7.0.0.

48 replies
v. 7.0.1 repairs some of the problems
But Apple doesn't send an update notice (until now), so without first deleting the app (then setting my iPhone off/on) and reinstalling the app, the original v 7.0.0 was active!
Note: the DLNA music server was instantaniously found.
Edit: I still encouter problems with playing complete albums! The app now shows on a regular base: not abble to add to playlist for non Mozart devices.

Yes, v7.0.1 does find my Minimserver when performing the scan but notice that the phone has to be on the same network segment (which is clearly indicated in the app instructions but in the past this wasn't an issue, at least on Android). But, not sure what to expect since I don't see any additional block/segment in the app indicate that it's media from the Minimserver in any way so not sure what to expect. Also for both Moment and Level there are no additional input source to pick from. In the past when using Android I had additional local media/DLNA section which I could pick tracks, albums, etc. from.

Seems that it took a while before the DLNA media showed up in the app - so I now have a section in the bottom of the app which shows the number of albums, tracks, and playlist.

Unfortunate I get error message stating "Could not insert into playqueue" and trying to play either album, track or playlist, etc.

So just have to wait for next app release.

Not useful post, I agree, but I just wanted to express my annoyance 😜

Same issue here. After I installed App v7.0.0 on my iPhone, it no longer listed my Twonky DLNA library. I had to add it back; this has always taken up to 30 seconds but, with v7.0.0, in order to see the DLNA listed in the app, I had to close then restart it.  Sadly then, when I click on 'Play' at the top of the screen, it says 'unable to insert in queue' as noted above. It will play individual tracks if I select one but, in order to play an entire album, I have to add individual tracks one at a time to the queue.

And you can't even contact B&O Support through the app anymore. Probably because they get swamped with error reports and complaints. I have reported this issue to B&O via email. Hopefully they can fix it soon.

I am so glad the I kept App v5.3.1 on my MacBook. It's still the best and most reliable version, IMO. Every version of the app after 5.3 has been plagued with problems.

Stephen, On an iPhone:
  • Take a screenshot of the phone with the message.
  • When tapping "OK" , on the 1st line of the list which appears, there is "Share the Beta Evaluation".
  • A new window will open with the screenshot and a space for your remarks.
Regards, Yann.

Thanks Yann but the only options with a screenshot are to save to photos, save to files or delete. There is no option to share the Beta evaluation. In fact, I no longer receive beta versions in TestFlight. They seem to have stopped that.

Furthermore, now when I open the app, ironically, the only library shown is my DLNA. There is no longer the option to play Deezer music, even if I close the app and restart it. What a mess they keep making of this app! The fiddle about with it but clearly don't test it thoroughly before unleashing it on their frustrated customers.

Reckon I will delete the app and go back to Airplay directly from Deezer or Apple Music. Those apps always work.

You are right, Stephen, I use the beta app through TestFlight which allows to send screenshots to the team.

I did not imagine they would send this un-functional version on the release channel.

I got a reply from B&O support (see attachment). Looks like they're on it but no information about when we might see a fix...

update via appstore to 7.0.1. the button to play a whole album / folder is back. it takes ages but then it looks like it's playing a Home Media song. But my Theatre does not make any sound at all.... When I start up a song on Tidal (by the horrible B&O app version) there is music....

Used Twitter to inform them again.....
