### 1/5 — Won’t connect

*2026-07-28, version 1.8.1*

I’m not surprised, as most reviewers here have had the same experience. I’m definitely connected via Bluetooth (I’m listening to the speaker as I write this). The app just won’t pick up the speaker.

### 1/5 — Fix this app PLEASE

### 1/5 — App won’t connect

*2026-07-12, version 1.8.1*

### 1/5 — App not working

*2026-07-09, version 1.8.1*

Have they stopped the app it will not do anything

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2026-07-08, version 1.8.1*

What a pointless app. It needs to ‘set up’ every time it connects. Have to ‘forget’ previous Beats Pill saves each time you connect. No additional functionality aside from connecting in the Pill. Poor show. The Pill is simply just another dumb Bluetooth speaker..

### 1/5 — 아이폰은 블루투스 잡는데 이앱은 못잡음

*2026-07-05, version 1.8.1*

개발자가 여자거나 흑인인듯

Two Pills 
Two New-ish iPhones. 
Zero success connecting.  Reinstalled. Nope. Forget speaker  Nope 
Help suggestions.  Nope

### 2/5 — Love the speakers, but the app is no good for me cause I only have one speaker

*2026-06-27, version 1.8.1*

I wish they would implement an EQ in here for the beast speaker
