  • Have to unpair and repair each time

    If you pair your phone to the stereo to play something, all seems well. Then you use the app or the button to turn the stereo off. Yet the phone stays connected and tries to play any audio through the stereo. Even if you click Disconnect on the Bluetooth menu. Only way to stop this is to forget the device. Every single time. So useless.

  • Bad app for iPhone 12.

    This is a bad app since it will not pair with the iPhone 12. It works on my iPad but I keep no music on it. All my music is on the iPhone.
  • Got app to pair once, then never again

    I was able to pair this app with the head unit in my new Lance camper. Now for the last month it fails every time I try. Totally worthless. I’ll just enjoy the rest of my camper and forget about this worthless piece of Jensen crap.
  • Good luck!

    Set this up with new camper and worked great while showing it to family, now that it is permanently setup NEVER connects to the app. I can turn Bluetooth on the radio and listen to music but control is non existent unless I forget my device, delete it off radio then reconnect. Trying to control the volume of multiple zones is easier on the app especially when outside, guess I’ll stick to my portable Alexa speaker when I want to listen to music outside while camping!

  • Disconnect from my Tahoe Boat unit MS3A

    Streaming music with Bluetooth is a nightmare, it keeps connecting and disconnectinh from the unit. I guess will have to change to another brand and install another unit. Basspro and Tracker, do not install these in your boats anymore
  • unexpectedly turns ON MS2A marine radio power

    JControl version 4.3 is garbage. I spent weeks troubleshooting why my MS2A radio was unexpectedly powering ON when mounted in a waterproof BOSS housing in my gazebo.

    Anytime my wife’s or my iPhones were just *barely* within Bluetooth range of the MS2A (in our bedroom), the JControl app would wake our phones and prompt to be allowed to run (Ignore/Allow prompt).

    NIGHTLY, the radio would unexpectedly power ON and switch from BT Audio to FM, usually VERY early in the morning.

    After deleting the JControl app off our phones, the unexpected power ON problem went away.

    I can imagine how many dead RV and boat batteries were caused by JControl.

  • Don’t bother

    I have a new Lance camper, and the only thing I despise about this camper is the Jensen stereo. The only way to play music is to connect to my iPhone with Bluetooth. It never works! I’m buying a Bose stereo because I know Bose values quality.
  • Useless app

    Downloaded easily.
    That was the extent of ease to use.
    After 4 hours, still had not been able to Pair or use app to control Jensen!

    Total Waste of Time!
  • Please Update!!!!

    Jensen - this app needs a serious update! My boat is only 4 years old but this app feels so antiquated and slow! Every other time I use it I have to force close and it ends up dropping the Bluetooth connection. Please maintain and update this app so I don’t have to install an up to date head unit in my boat!

  • Needs work

    Doesn’t let me control the zones in my trailer with the app. Needs a lot of work.
