Ratings and reviews

The app is useless. It couldn't find my JBL Go 4 even though it was connected to my Bluetooth with the music playing. I gave the app permission to discover nearby devices and everything that's needed. Went through the steps of disconnecting, unpairing, forgetting the device, and then reconnecting, but still nothing. I expected more from such a well-known brand to be able to connect with their own devices through a Samsung S23 phone. No reason at all not to work properly. I'm tech-savvy, too.

Having been reluctantly forced to abandon my quarter+ century-old frankensteined portable discman with jury-rigged speakers arrangement after it gave up the ghost, and since nobody manufactures boom-boxes anymore, I instead decided upon a slightly smaller, wireless contraption and subsequently purchased a JBL Clip5. Nice sound, deep and rich. And, as long as I remember to charge it, usually lasts 6-8hrs at medium volume. Doesn't like to charge well on anything other than what came in the box.

Garbage. Won't connect to my Flip 6 even after doing ALL the suggested "fixes" like three different times, and with the speaker connected to my bluetooth. Beyond frustrating. I wasn't a fan of the speaker to begin with, but I read that the app would give me some control over the sound so I wanted to try it out before I make the decision to return it. Very disappointed.
