Ratings and reviews

Why in the world do you not allow integration with Google? YouTube music? it's irritating considering how many formation speakers I have! I refuse to use a different music system because you are this snobby? I love my speakers immensely, I despise this lack of common function! For the record, I have all formation, 2 bars, 3 bass, 4 flex, 2 wedges, duo's & 1 audio. I really would like to enjoy these and I can even deal with the constant dropping audio if it plays what I prefer on android..

Very disappointed with this app. I really enjoy my B&W 700 speakers. I got the panorama bar to add extra punch to the TV. Unfortunately this app doesn't quite meet the bar I am used to from B&W. Connection issues, product not being found in the app despite playing. Extremely limited equalizer for the Panorama (base & treble). I really wish there were more advanced controls for the soundbar. Much cheaper products allow for more control. I really hope this gest addressed in future releases...

The app works for the most basic functions (status check, firmware update). But even the simplest settings are missing from the headphones (PX7 S2e), which do exist in any othet app and headphone I've used from Bose/Sony/Jabra: 1) You can't choose which ANC modes you cycle through using the headphone button. You always have to cycle through all three: ANC On, Transparency and ANC Off 2) You can't keep the mode button pressed to summon the phone Assistant. It's either an ANC_or_Assistant button
