Using iPhone trying to connect both through WiFi and Bluetooth ### 1/5 — This app *2019-10-20, version 2.5* This app is garbage it does not connect to my monster speaker. ### 1/5 — The app needs a lot of work *2018-09-14, version 2.5* I use my phone to play audio books while I work around the house but the app only allows for music to be played through the speakers (that which is on the phone or through paid services). Not a big deal if you wanted to just hard wire the phone to the speaker, but I want the phone to be playing on multiple speakers as I work in different areas (which requires the app). Overall the concept is good (multiple wireless speakers playing different things or all the same thing), but the app is lacking a few things to consider. ### 1/5 — Péssimo *2017-01-24, version 2.5* Não recomendo, já faz quase dois anos que compramos e TODAS as vezes que vamos ligar, perdemos mais de 20 minutos para conectar. Monster é muito ruim!!!! ### 5/5 — Love this speaker system *2016-11-15, version 2.5* Best sounding speakers I have ever heard, love how the app works with Spotify too ### 4/5 — It need more updates. *2016-01-08, version 2.0* Get someone that wants to make this brand soar. The speakers are amazing, priced well. The app should already have all services, unless there is more to it than I know. No amazon music? bring any music or sound from our app to your speakers? No control from mac or PC yet? I feel Monster is going to miss the boat like Bose did with beats. Get on it, I’m cheering for you. Sonos need some competition. ### 1/5 — does not work *2015-11-28, version 1.2* loosing speaker every 5 min have to reinstall app will return speaker because of this app looks like manufacturer does not care ### 1/5 — This App is the life blood *2015-09-21, version 1.2* The equipment must be run by this app to be effective. Sure you can hard wire your iPod, computer, or phone into one speaker but that's it. If you want to take advantage of the multiple speaker option, the app is necessary, and the app needs a lot of help. I am constantly restarting the app for it to find my speakers and yesterday had to delete the app and reinstall. This app is the life blood of the system and it is only a 1 star. The theory of it is a 4 star, (some things should be better, see above reviews), but currently it needs a lot of help. ### 1/5 — No SoundStage devices found *2015-07-16, version 1.2* The app constantly disconnects. Please fix this ASAP. ### 3/5 — Few fixes and it'll be 5 stars *2015-06-21, version 1.2* Take away the limit for playlists. I want to be able to shuffle my library but I have over 500 songs. Also let us change songs from the lock screen and change the volume outside the app with the side buttons on iPhone. ## Frequently asked questions about Monster SoundStage ### What is Monster SoundStage?
