Great App !! using it for the past two weeks and it works flawlessly. I wish it has more time settings so I can schedule it to play music at different times (like the standard clock app). Hope this feature will be included in future upgrades. can this be used in other Bose speakers (e.g., soundlink) with presets ?
On first use this worked perfectly with the selected multiroom speakers playing the preset at the alarm time. Since then it hasnt worked...the alarm is set, shows active however when the time passes the alarm just shows as inactive. Both phone and speakers are on the same wifi too.
Excellent app... When setting thr alarm for days its not clear if red / black text means on or off... Also, when selecting the whole week or weekend, a checkbox would work better so you know whether the whole week is on or off (and that removes the confusion over red and black text)
It worked one day but now will not connect? I woke up and realised it didn't go off at all? Fibre optic internet and phone is always powered over night, when it works it is fantastic, thank you for also responding I've already paid for it, working again so all good.
Very weak and primitive application. No trace for the remaining time before sleep. Disappointed. Awaiting an update to tackle this issue as promised by the developers.
Would like a function to turn alarm on for 30min.
Does the missing Sleep Timer function brilliantly :-)
After few days alarm not working..
Good and convincing
Brilliant Well worth the money if you want the functionality it offers - sleep timer and/or wake alarm. Adds the big missing part that Bose has continually failed to supply to their app. But, often needs to have data cleared and restarted. Alarm is same time every day chosen.
Just what is needed for the soundtouch range. Works well with my 20 and 30 but one thing missing- ability to have the alarm stay on for a length time then switch off automatically- I know I've got to get up when it goes off! Otherwise well worth the money, thanks for doing what Bose should be doing!
Has been great but have noticed recently the sleep function crashes when tying to set the timer
Fonctionne parfaitement avec mon SoundTouch10. Many thanks from Belgium.
Does what it says at a bargain price.
Promising app with smart features but it does not connect to my SoundTouch 20 reliably. It seems to be pot luck whether it will connect or not when I open the app. I get a Cannot Load Presets error message and I have to close and reopen the app multiple times before it connects. Hopefully we get an update that may fix this. If the connection was reliable and fast it'd be 5 stars.
Bose has promised these features for a while, but they never delivered. The alarm still needs to be expanded to allow users to specify a preset or AUX on wake up, but it's not a big deal. I can remember to leave the Bose on a desired preset when I go to bed. Sometimes.
The initiative is great we definitely need an alarm timer for the speakers, shame that Bose doesn't take on this. This app however needs some work. With my Soundtouch 10s, it doesn't work 8 times out of 10. Either can't find the speaker, can't load preset or sometimes just doesn't turn on without showing any error.
Edit May 2017: No longer finds my Soundtouch 10. Not sure if this is because it's had some firmware updates or because my oneplus3 is now on 7.1.1. Either way it doesn't work any more! I'm leaving the stars at 5 as I seriously like this app and I'm hoping there's an update coming soon.... Very responsive developer, review changed to reflect the app works as it should (the alarm is beta). My original issue was a WiFi extender in the network. Turned this off, rebooted and the app found my soundtouch 10 instantly. WiFi extender now back on and no issues so far! Great functionality that really should be in the Bose app. Thanks!
Worked fine for a few weeks but now just keeps saying 'unable to find presets' and 'status unknown' on my speaker. I have to force app to stop every time or remove app and download it again which resolves issue for a day then same thing happens. This app should be free
It works perfectly. I would add the function of pre programing the alarms for a specific day of the week instead of turning the alarm on every night.
Not bad, connected straight away. Needs more functionality though, especially as its a paid for app. Needs a weekday alarm setting and to select a preset. I have seen previous reviewers ask for the same thing last year, any update on the update?
Thank you for taking making this app. Gave missing features to the sound touch system works great.
App was working perfectly but since the past few days every time I open it it shows an error message saying "cannot load presets". Since the error message started showing the app has stopped working.
Cannot find option for preset . Should have option to start choice of music from selected applications.
If this man can do it in his free time why can't Bose just make a decent app!
excellent on my soundtouch 30, is just what I wanted since I bought my first Bose speaker.
Some suggestions what would be great to have with potential update: option to select alarm for weekdays, or selected days, alarm to turn off automatically after 1 or 2 hours. Thanks!
Just found this app. This is what I wanted on my SoundTouch 20 when I bought it years ago! Thank you!!!
I got the app after reading the reviews, but I'm disappointed, it basically has no interface at all. after selecting a sleep timer the app closes and there is no way to confirm that timer was set it to know the remaining time! if i open up the app again there is no indication that a sleep timer is active. that's a terrible interface design. in a smaller peeve, the "source" always shows as unknown even after i select the preset directly in the app itself (rather than the Bose app)
