Is Bosch accessible enough to buy??
"i need a new washing machine. I'm blind and can't use the controls on the front of most machines, they're touch screen and don't talk. So I'm reliant on apps which do talk!!
You've not supplied any accessibility info to Apple App Store about whether it's good with the Voiceover screenreader. Please can you give me confidence that I should spend 700 quid on a Bosch washing machine because I'm unlikely to if you can't commit to accessibility on your app page. I see back in March that someone praised the accessibility but I'd really like you guys to officially explain your access and give me confidence that the next app update will remain accessible and mean I don't have to take my clothes down to the river with soap and a washstone instead. Please? Commit? Tell Apple? xx

Poor to connect.
When appliance is registered but fails to connect it tells you that you can register them again on the network (if you made changes) but not how you do it. Considering the app name that’s embarrassing
Hmmm
Often disconnects from wifi - difficult to get to reconnect - much more trouble than other IoT things
Fails to reconnect after a power cut
We get power cuts every now and then as we live out in the country. I have probably around 100+ items including phones, tablets, computers, heating, pool connectivity, smart plugs, bulbs, Apple TVs , televisions, Alexa devices, washing machine, CCTV cameras, you get the idea all connected to my WiFi. The Bosch dishwasher is the ONLY appliance that needs to be hard reset with an unplugging to reconnect to my WiFi once it loses connection. Why? Bug fixed didn’t include this obviously. Try harder as this is rubbish. It’s 2026 not 1996.

App not intuitive to use
It’s almost too clever for its own good and forces you towards using the preset programs which are not necessarily what you want to use. But the most irritating thing is that to control the washing machine via the app, you need to physically select “allow remote start” on the machine after every time the machine is powered off and back on again, even though the app is WiFi connected to the machine.
