App

Works very well but would be great if it worked on Apple Watch

Have to admit, not half bad

I've had this sound bar for a couple of years. The sound is good. Setup, to the best of my recollection, was painless and hasn't failed me since. Best for a smaller room.

Connection issues

Doesn’t always even try to connect. When I click the connect it takes several attempts to connect

Phone remote

It’s nice and convenient to have the sound bar controls on my phone. The only downside is sometimes I have to try up to 7 or 8 times to get the Wi-Fi and SoundBar to connect so that I can use it.
