### 1/5 — Do better

*2026-01-01, version 4.2.6*

The app is pathetic, never works . Let’s list the gripes I have with the app. You can turn on the bulbs, you have to manually turn them on. The app never works . Nothing loads up half the time . I guess the developers went to sleep on this one

### 5/5 — Speakers que jadore

*2025-09-30, version 4.2.6*

Jadore jnai 2 
Masters et satellite 
Stereo ses sa coche dehors gallérie 😇😍🥰

### 1/5 — Not working

*2025-06-21, version 4.2.6*

What waste of time spend almost the whole day trying to connect but couldn’t

### 1/5 — App cannot find bulb. Cannot connect with Bluetooth

*2025-04-13, version 4.2.6*

No connection.

### 2/5 — It keep saying it’s searching for bulbs😒

*2024-03-19, version 4.2.6*

Light

### 2/5 — Bluetooth mid songs always pause

*2024-02-04, version 4.2.6*

For some reason the bulbs literally pause my music and I have to UNPAUSE it everytime, and I can’t tolerate it anymore so NOT WORTH IT.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2024-01-24, version 4.2.6*

Horrible app directions. Even worse product.

### 1/5 — Why does the app restart default setting all the time?

*2023-09-27, version 4.2.6*

This app is garbage. It restarts itself to a default setting of 80% all the time. So
When you come back to your stereo, you suddenly can’t hear your music so you turn up the stereo to then discover you have to go into the app and turn it to 100% then to have your speakers blasting. We just need an app that handles connectivity of speakers- there’s no need for two independent volume levels.

### 1/5 — Sad

*2023-01-03, version 4.2.6*

Speakers play low and app doesn’t connect

### 1/5 — Lamps work but sound is tinny

*2022-10-22, version 4.2.6*

Lights work. Unable to link 2 together. Guessing that’s what the solo means. For a JBL speaker is sounds very tinny.  With an irritating, high-pitched quality. I have lowered the treble and tried to raise the bass to offset this sound but there is no onboard EQ. You have to change the way your music quality is sent from your music app to the solo speaker. This may make it sound different to the headphones or other wireless music devices. It’s more of a gimmick than something to use on a regular. I realize this is more of a review on the Pulse Solo speaker but this app should have an EQ that can adjust the quality of the sound that the speaker output on a regular basis. I do understand that most other Bluetooth speakers do not have this functionality. They also don’t have an app to control the volume or the light like this one does.
