Doesn’t recognize speakers

As others have said, this app is worthless. Won’t recognize my Pebble X Plus. App says “connect your Creative device…” I’m connected to my Mac mini through USBC, music plays, so I know the Mac recognizes it, but the app won’t recognize it. The supporting documentation said to connect through USB C and it should work. Well…it doesn’t recognize it. The iPad app recognized it, but only allows me to adjust light settings and I need access to the EQ which is supposedly only available on the Mac & Windows version.

Doesn’t do anything

This app simply doesn’t function; it doesn’t detect, as far as I can tell, any Creative products. Given it also hasn’t been updated in years I think it’s clear they don’t pay any attention to this.

BT-W6

The dongle is apparently “not supported” on IOS making this $50 purchase a paper weight essentially. Literally all these problems people are having would take a week of development to fix at max.

Software seems worthless

The app does not detect speakers that have been plugged in and when connected to my Google Account to try to add a device to see if it works that way, none of the dropdown menus seem to be scrollable, so I cannot even select my correct country of residence or device

Worthless

Crashes immediately when my Katana V2 soundbar is connected.

does not work with Creative's T20 or T60 speakers

sadly not on their list of supported devices , should you wish to tweak EQ settings .

Disappointed in APP

Does nothing but change lights.

Great app for accompanying speakers

Not sure why this app has such low ratings…downloaded it to set the RGB on my Pebble X Plus and it works flawlessly

Does not work

It does not work. We got Creative Pebble X Plus. When we launch the app it does not connect to the speaker neither through the USB - C cable nor via bluetooth. Bad app. Vibe code a better one.

No option for pebble pro

Download because it was supposed to make setting up easy but it failed at the fist hurdle, does not support Pebble Pro

Literally does nothing on MacOS

Doesn’t detect the SoundBlaster X1 on my MacBook Pro 2019 running 15.7.2…can’t even register the product. Totally useless. I don’t have a Windows PC so I can’t even EQ this thing which is why I got it in the first place. Now it’s just trash. Why say in the instructions that it works on Mac and have a Mac app if it does nothing?

Doesn’t do anything

I have the Pebble X speakers connected to my computer via the USB-C connection. When I launch this app it just says “Connect your Creative devices to experience the Creative App”. It doesn’t detect my connected speakers and there are no buttons or anything to make it scan for devices. This app is worthless. I only downloaded the app to see if I could get left/right balance control and mic input from my headphones through the port on my speaker. All this is supposed to work according to Creative’s website. It doesn’t, their Mac support is terrible. Beware!

Excellent TWS earbuds

Outstanding sound quality from Creative Aurvana Ace 2 TWS earbuds by with exceptional MEMS drivers. “Editors Choice” by Soundguys.

App works smoothly with the earbuds where there is option to customise EQ and switch ANC or Ambient Mode on or off.

Highly recommend TWS earbuds.

Disappointing

Just added a pair of Pebble Pro speakers to my MAC. Can’t find the speakers in the desktop app or the iPhone app. Totally frustrating experience. These speakers have a great reputation but the app support is a total stain on the reputation of Creative. Wouldn’t seek their products again. Try harder guys,

Won’t connect

Doesn’t work. Doesn’t connect to creative device

Sound Blaster GS5

Esta aplicación no vale para la barra de sonido SB GS5, pero viendo que la app para movil ya ni funciona supongo que no valdrá para ninguna barra. El peor desarrollo de aplicaciones que he visto en mucho tiempo tanto para Mac como para iOS. Por ahora 80 euros para una barra que suena genial pero que el soporte que da Creative es nulo y las aplicaciones son peor aun…

Doesn’t work

Unfortunately the app won’t connect to any of my Creative devices. Please fix.

ma... gli sviluppatori?

purtoppo vedo che l'app è stata recensita diversi anni addietro da altri utenti ma lo spunto per migliorarla non si è acceso. Anche io riprendo il tema ,ma non per dire che non funziona,ma per dire che cito testualemte da vs mail:
" Desideriamo informarla che purtroppo questo modello altoparlanti è compatibile solo con la versione Windows dell'applicazione Creative App (versione desktop).
Inoltre se desidera usare la versione desktop, su Windows, deve connettere gli altoparlanti via connessione USB per poter permettere al software di vedere il prodotto - se li connette via Bluetooth, il software non li riconoscerà." fine citazione.
In un mondo dove IOs è altrettanto diffuso quanto windows non si può lasciare un app che gira solo su quest'ultimo, non ha senso trovarla su App Store e vedere che è di una mediocrità disarmante rispetto a windows. Per questo dopo averla provata su macbook e aver visto come gira su win dò una stella e spero, anche se non credo, che questo possa mettere la giusta voglia agli sviluppatori di lavorarci sopra.

Old Version

Recent one is v. 1.7.6 Build 4 . find it at creative web > support

Very poor support

Very poor support in katana v2x. The subwoofer is constantly humming and you can't hear the clarity of the performers singing. at any settings. I am very disappointed with this purchase, which is also very expensive. I do not recommend
