Had two different soundbars (sp8ya, sp9ya) connected for two months, no issues. Then, suddenly stopped working (no app/hardware/firmware updates/changes). Now I can see both bars when trying to connect, however, after a dozen attempts neither will connect to wifi. I've reset EVERYTHING multiple times, no dice. This ruins the bars as most of the important settings/setup are only accessed via the app. Now complete trash. Returning both. Didn't know LG dropped app support when they dropped mobile.

So far, the app is useless...freezes during setup on Samsung phone. I managed to get the LG soundbar connected and running without the app...a real clunker so far. OK...thanks for reply. When I turn the app on, it tries to set things up. I get tot he screen that asks if there is a wireless key on the soundbar. The screen freezes there...doesn't allow me to press Yes or No. I have a Samsung SM-G955U with Android version 9.I've tried it a few different times with same result.

"Failed to connect to soundbar" on SK8Y. The previous app didn't have this problem. Worse, the failure comes with no error message, leaving the user clueless about what actually happened. This app is an epic failure of oversimplified, dumbed down user interfaces and app design. I fixed it by hard resetting my soundbar by holding down the WiFi button for ten seconds. If something isn't working, try hard resetting your soundbar, user manual should say how to do it if different than what I did.
