Attention: This app is used to configure and operate special Almando devices. The app cannot be used without an Almando device! Almando is a manufacturer of high-quality audio products from Germany. With these products you can connect consumer electronics from different manufacturers. The handling is very easy. All Almando products are incredibly intelligent - they always detect the status of your connected sources (e.g. Samsung TV, Sonos network player, etc.) and automatically activate your speakers (e.g. Bang & Olufsen, Piega, etc.) All you need is a single remote control - only that of the device you want to listen to. Everything else is done by the Almando product automatically - Almando is the automatic switch for your entertainment electronics. And with this free intuitive app you can configure everything - speaker management, sound settings, lip sync, Pro Logic mode - and most of it separately for each connected source. So you can customize all your devices to your personal listening habits. In everyday use of the app, you can start Internet radio stations, play music from USB storage, etc. Regular and free firmware updates keep the system up-to-date.
