A godsend
This pretty much replicates what I needed to continue playing my NAS library through my speakers. It was straightforward to add speakers using their IP addresses.
A couple of minor quibbles from initial use:
1. Browsing the NAS library shows only the first 200 albums, meaning that you have to search rather than browse for others further down your list.
2. Selecting a track from the middle of an album plays only that track. I assume that if you want to start a sequence partway through an album (common for classical music listening) then you would have to select ‘play all’ then click through the tracks.
These are very minor niggles. Overall, thank you for your excellent work.
Best $6.00 I’ve ever spent.
Great to effortlessly stream our favourite radio stations.
Bose SoundTouch Frustrations
Très déçu
Response from developer
Bonjour ! Désolé pour cette mauvaise expérience. Pour diffuser votre musique en mode application seule, assurez-vous que les autorisations de réseau local (Réseau local) sont bien activées dans les réglages de votre iPhone/iPad et utilisez la passerelle AirPlay ou Bluetooth. Concernant les presets physiques de l'enceinte : depuis la fermeture définitive des serveurs cloud Bose, réactiver les boutons 1 à 6 de manière autonome nécessite notre boîtier physique dédié (« Controller Cube ») connecté à votre box internet. Écrivez-moi directement à john@controllerpro.app ! Je serai ravi de vous accompagner étape par étape pour refaire fonctionner votre SoundTouch.
Excellent SoundTouch Replacement
There is just one small issue: whenever I open the app and it connects to my SoundTouch speaker, I hear a brief screeching noise. The same thing happens if the speaker is already playing and I open the app to control it. It doesn’t affect playback, but it’s a quirk worth investigating.
Aside from that, the app performs brilliantly and a huge improvement over the official version.

Hi Backayard22, thank you so much for the fantastic review and the kind words! That brief "screeching" or beeping noise you are hearing is actually the speaker's built-in notification chime acknowledging that Controller Pro has successfully established a connection with it. The great news is that you can easily turn this off! If you are on the newest update, just tap the Settings gear icon in the app, and you will see a toggle for the "Connection Chime" (or Beep). Flip that off, and your app will connect to your speakers completely silently from now on. Thanks for your support, and enjoy the music!
