Ilive WiFi control app for iPhone

The set up does not include my device model. I tried to follow the instructions but halted me when it stated to press the WiFi button to proceed to the setup. My device jusf kept on blinking and nothing happened. This app is not user friendly and lacks the other instructions to complete the setup.

Horrible app doesn’t work

Absolute junk, you can’t even connect to Wi-Fi with it. Which cuts the usability of the speaker right in half. Can’t even set the clock because it goes off of Wi-Fi which this app fails to connect. The app makers should hang their heads in shame on this one. Going to return this whole speaker and go with a competent brand. If I could I’d give it negative stars!

Awful product and app

Difficult to setup - after you setup - you continuously have to go through the same process every time you use. It’s not worth using if you have to spend over a half hour to setup each time you use. Both Bluetooth and wireless function are a pain.

App interferes with my phone working.

Speaker interferes with my headphones.

Speaker picks up others convos.

Volume of narration voice is really high and if it randomly decides to talk to you at 1 am you can’t turn it down, you have to shut all the way off and then your next startup process is a pain.

Wish I could give 0 stars.

Actually isn’t as bad as the reviews make it sound like

As long as your patient with setting up the app which only took me 10 minutes it’s a really good app and a knock off Alexa.

Failed Christmas Gift

I got this as a gift for Christmas and I can’t even use it because you need the app in order for it to work. My family member spent money for no reason... need to fix the app ASAP
How has this not been fixed before?? How is the company not responsible for people who have spent the money on a device that doesn’t work because of the app

Zero stars.

This app is 100 percent trash. Not even worth the download. It doesn’t work. I only put one star because there wasn’t an option. The iLive platinum speaker I got is only worth about 5 dollars in my opinion. If you want something that has Alexa you might as well go ahead and spend the extra to get the real thing. This isn’t even worth it.

Way better not perfect yet

So for the clock from my husband in Dec and it was garbage with iPhone 8 and 10, eventually we got to work by finding charging and using our old iPhone 6. Unfortunately power went out one day and lost all settings 🤦‍♀️, didn’t want to dig up old iPhone again so this wound up in donate bin. However, it was an $$$ clock so I thought I’d try one more time, now August and they seem to have worked out a lot of bugs. I like the audio quality better than the echo dot in my bedroom but it doesn’t recognize routines, if they added that I’d give it five stars now.

waste of time and money

after finishing the process of connecting the device to the internet, it says its successful and you can start to use it. Then as soon as you try to do anything, it says “device is not connected to WiFi” but does not let you fix it. There is no way to reconnect to the WiFi, and you are unable to use the speaker.

Please FIX ....thank you for a good app but nice when it works.

It worked great until the other day. Maybe because I didn’t get on the app for awhile.
The app said it’s not online lol
yet it was playing music? Alexa was responding! I tried to correct that. BIG MISTAKE. Now nothing. 🤦‍♀️

How I fixed the problem

Many of you are having the same trouble with concierge speaker and other things. Connecting to the olive app. What I found after weeks of trial and error is to turn my WiFi button off for about 15 seconds then back on don’t turn the router off or reboot it just the WiFi button hope this works for someone else.
