There is no chance to control the built in Spotify function of BeoMaster 5 from an external app. 

Only thing possible is to write a piece of software that links a BeoPort to the API of the normal Spotify desktop client and implement a control point that can be accessed from an app.

 

BR,
BeoMotion. 

I finally got my Apple Watch!!! Yeah!

I have also, with Jeff's help solved the issues in the app and a new version is on its way.

😁😁😁

Philippe has made a truly great app! I can't see anything that b&o could do with a beolink app that we can't already do with Philippe's app.

Same philosophy here. Got a 42mm Space gray until 2.0. Wife doesn't wear a watch, but I didn't want to splurge on something I might not like very much as a 1.0 product. The only issue: mine arrives in June. It might be caught in that faulty taptic engine snafu which was reported yesterday as causing supply issues.

I went for a stainless steal model. I ordered one with a rubber wristband, as I'll use this one for sport, and later on I will probably buy some other type of bracelets.

I just checked the App with my new Apple watch 🙂. New version is in the store.

It is working very well. Good job. I personally miss the wind, rewind, stop and exit buttons. I know that the size is limited and everybody has other ideas.

Thank you for this great App.

The wind, rewind, stop (pause) buttons are all on this screen.

For the exit button, use force touch and then LIST.

Is that what you were looking for?

Hallo Philippe,

I didn't know the force touch for your App. Good to know. Exit is working.

I checked the other buttons on my Beo5. They are mapped as follows:

wind = CNTL_0 and WIND
rewind = CNTL_0 and REWIND
play = PLAY and PLAY

the inner buttons on the Beo5 are:
right = WIND
left = REWIND
go = CNTL_0 and PLAY 

That is why the wind and rewind are not working as I expect. They are the same as right and left. It seems it depends on the interaction between Beo5 and PUC (in this case for a Technisat receiver).

Seems more complex to really support all possibilities. I just want to share this. For me is everything okay. Thank you for your great App.
