### 5/5 — Awesome App for all Beo5/6 Users!

*2014-02-05, version 1.8.0*

Really just awesome App and worth every cent! It made it so much easier to reprogram a beo5 remote (of course you still need the configuration tool). Also great support via mail by the author, so absolutely 5 stars! Thanks!

### 5/5 — Beo5

*2013-06-13*

This is a fantastic app, if you own a B&O Beo5 or Beo6 remote and have non-B&O equipment that you want to control, then you need this app. Made creating macros so easy and has brought a new lease of life to my Beo5.
Thanks

### 5/5 — Topp Applikation mit topp Service

*2013-04-07, version 1.1.0*

Nutze die Applikation, um BEO5 Fernbedienungen zu programmieren. Das Programm erlaubt die Bang&Olufsen BEO5/6 Fernbedienung so anzulernen, dass diese auch mit Geräten anderer Hersteller kommunizieren kann. Es gibt bereits einige Konfigurationen, welche man von der Webseite in das App importieren und an die eigenen Bedürfnisse anpassen kann. 
Die Applikation ist sehr einfach zu bedienen und ist sehr stabil. Die Programmierung ist sehr einfach und intuitiv. Konnte bisher keinen nennenswerten abstürze verzeichnen. 
Der Programmierer leistet sehr guten Support und die Webseite ist bei der Programmierung sehr aufschlussreich.
Kann jedem, der eine BEO5/6 besitzt und Geräte anderer Hersteller damit bedienen möchte, diese App wärmstens empfehlen.
