Needs update for USB C adapter

This headset no longer connects to the app on iPhone 15 ProMax with the Anker C to lightning adapter.

No updates for USB C adapters.

I bought the Anker lightning to USBC adapter to use my headset with my iPhone 15 Pro Max. It just says “please connect to lightning port”. They are now useless.

Not good

Download problems and voice not good

iPhone 15/15Pro Adapter Support Please

Can we get USB-C adapter support using the AMBEO Smart Headset? I want to be able to continue to use that headset with my USB-C Apple device. Seems like a pretty easy update to the app.

They removed natural sound

No longer allow you to access healing 428, 432 or 444 natural hertz frequency they want you to listen to 666 Hz You May Ask Why? I would not deal with any company that’s trying to push Black Rock NWO agenda

Using iPad Air 4th gen, and Anker Adapter, not detected by app

Shure Motiv’s app works with this and records 3d just fine, as does the built-in camera and what-not, but when launching this app and plugging it in, it doesn’t detect the headset through the USB-C adapter. Sure would be nice if this would work.

Doesn’t work

The app doesn’t recognise the headset. Perhaps it doesn’t with ios15. This may be a good thing, though, as, based on reviews, this means that it can’t brick the headset with a dud firmware update!

Works but recording levels too low

Only two choices of recorded level : “reduced Level” might be ok for something very loud (pop concert, football match or air display) but “normal level” is much too low to record ambient sounds of say, nature, but might be ok for noisy city walk-about. Would suggest future update should include a third setting for a “boosted level” for quiet ambient surroundings for example sound of nature, bird song, seashore etc. That would make the App and headset much more useful. As it is at present the headset In my view is of limited use.

Works ok, just about

Took 3 attempts to update firmware of the Ambeo smart headset. Update failed on first attempt at 91%, this removed all the remote control functions that were originally working out of the box. Second attempt failed at 75% and third completed successfully which restored the functionality.

Firmware now fixed, so no longer Not fit for purpose.

Apogee have updated the app so that the firmware update now works and un-bricks previously bricked headsets that were screwed by the previous version of the app. All is now lovely again!
