Open by its self

By itself without its self without touching the app at all.

Oh my word!

Listening to my playlist of favorites, I’m noticing nuances that I never knew existed: horns, a drum beat, or even a backup singer! If you really love music, these are a MUST HAVE!!!

Not what you would expect from such a big brand

This app is such a pain! It lets you configure shortcuts to operate the headphones with tapping them, but half of the shortcuts doesn’t work unless the app is on and the earbuds are added in it. The app shuts down when you put earbuds on charge and in my case removes my earbuds from its list of connected devices. So I have to add my earbuds manually every time I want to use them and be able to reliably tap to stop whatever I am listening to. And it is not quick to add them. It takes ages for the app to find them. They are paired with my phone all the time but the app doesn’t pick it up for some reason. Another pain is the Voice control option, which is a nice idea in terrory, but not when you have an AI audio guide switched on automatically when voice control is on. You cannot turn off AI audio guide on its own, and it will randomly pick up on something you say to someone, and start talking in your ear for absolutely no reason totally misinterpreting what you said to someone else as a command to do something with the app. Earbuds have an awesome noice cancelling feature and great sound quality but this app is a nightmare and does not allow for seamless use after set up, which is a critical part of user experience. I just got these headphones couple of days ago, and I’ll give it another few days to test and play around with settings but I’m on the fence whether to return these and pick up another brand that provides a better overall user experience. I had higher expectations from Bose.

Redirects

Trying to use the app but when I go to connect my ear buds it says ‘cannot open website too many redirects’
Not very impressed at the minute.

Automatic Ear detection

It’s kind of annoying to have to have an entirely different app for this ONE device. All of the online guides are for the other Bose app that has every other Bose device. That being said is there any way to get features from that app on this one, such as disabling automatic ear detection or is that completely undo able with the software? If I have to deal with aware mode popping on one more time because I adjust my earbud I might never buy a Bose product again.

Bose Quiet Comfort Headphones A+++

BOSE IS SYNONYMOUS WITH BEST!!!!!!!!

New first timer

Loving them better then the other ones I have completely cuts out outside noises it cut out once but not sure if it happened to be the phone or the ear buds

Slow web app

Not a native app rather a web app. Slow as snail. Does not understand that earbuds are already connected. Poor quality and user experience.

Slower than a snail

It takes 3-2 minutes just to boot the app than i have to wait for it to connect just to wait another 3 minutes because i switch to Apple Music and back genuinely go with any other brand Sonys app is pretty good rn

Boss

Love my Bose

Bose Man!

Bose is AWSOME!!!

Bluetooth Earbuds

Very nice and good quality

No va con iOS

Se desincronisa la app se abre sola nada recomendable para usuarios de Apple

App does not work

As of a month or two ago, the app is non-functional. Even before then, it was about a 50/50 shot on whether it would work. It rarely recognizes the headphones on your first try and you can’t permanently change settings like noise cancelling on the app. If you don’t like the default sound cancelling settings, you have to go into the app each time you use the earbuds to set it to the one you like. Unnecessarily complicated process for something so simple. Also the earbuds themselves have this awful pulsing sound when it’s supposedly noise cancelling but it’s extremely annoying.

So buggy

Why do I have to go through the process of finding and connecting to my earbuds every time I open the app?
Also, there is a button in the app that says "multipoint" and is just a switch. There is no information whatsoever to explain how to pair multipoint devices. If I click the info link it takes me to a generic Bose product page. Unhelpful.

Great

Great headphones

Connection

Still having connectivity issues no matter what I’ve tried with my Bose Ultra quiet earbuds.

Unable to connect

App recognizes my device and when I go to connect I get an error that safari cannot connect due to too many redirects. “Help” section in app is firmware information.

Great earphones

I have always gone with beats till I use Bose for the 1st time there great I have spent a few weeks in hospital people snoring but with the Bose earphones I hear only what I want to and it’s great totally recommend

アプリが最悪すぎる

製品の性能は申し分ないのに、アプリは接続しない、すぐ落ちる、頻繁にショートカット設定がリセットされる…と、全力でストレスを与えて来るものでした。
iPadに至っては一度も接続に成功していません。何でや…

しかも購入した26年3月以降、まるで改善される様子がありません。
案の定他の日本語レビューは軒並み低評価、なのに26年9月末時点で星4.6…
Bose社はこの大問題を把握しているのでしょうか?
購入後はどうでもいいのでしょうか…?

日本人の一般庶民にとっての2〜3万円は、決して安くはない価格です。
早期の改善を望みます。
