    Expensive product - Cheap support (if any)
    After my Harmon Go+Play decided it doesn’t want to play anymore and due to total lack of support and no repair service available by Harmon, I purchased at the time what was the “Top of the Range” JBL OnBeat Rumble Bluetooth speaker from the iStore here in South Africa. Expensive product indeed, but in saying that you do get what you pay for, its a brilliant speaker with a rich bass and to this day I have yet to find / hear better. Unfortunately what let’s it down is the lack of after sales support as I have experienced from both my products by HARMAN (a subsidiary of Samsung) and it shows too in their apps which are not even worth wasting any bandwidth downloading.

    Worked before no update for IOS
    Please update so it will work with IOS 11. Now I have a paperweight JBL wifi speaker.

    Not compatible with iOS 11
    This app is not compatible with iOS 11 because it’s still 32-bit. I find that pretty disappointing because it’s the only way I can configure my AirPlay speaker to connect to the network. Show more

    Stay away
    Fails to work for setup with newer iOS. Poorly designed to begin with, and then you can't select a wifi network. Just use a computer and go to 169.254.1.1 in the browser after connecting to the special network. Show more

    Cannot use the app in iPhone6
    Just moved home and changed wifi, the app cannot be used in the new iOS on iPhone 6 Plus. In the drop down Manu try to choose my new wifi, click it, no response. No way to connect to wifi again. Show more

    Lame app to the core
    I downloaded the app to find s way to connect my JPL Soundfly Air to my phone. The instructions were absolutely lame to say it nice. So I had to follow the manual to connect to it. The manual is going through the steps properly. However, the software portal does not allow the user to type the wireless SSID manually (I have my network SSID hidden). You can only select from the listed networks. I don't want to make my wireless network ID visible. The bottom line: avoid JBL product (hardware and App) all together. Show more

    Too bad
    Who made this? I don't think he ever tried to use it.

    How about sleep and alarm functions?
    sleep and alarm functions would give app at least 2 more stars.

    Useless
    Since I tried to (unsuccessfully) update my OnBeat Air firmware this app simply dies every time I try to start it. Even when the OnBeat is not in the network. So I don't think the two things are related. Multiple remove and reinstall attempts did not solve the issue and JBL support is not helping either. Too bad I can't give no stars. Show more

    A wast
    Provides no added functionality compared to iTunes, except for providing a shortcut to JBL's online store.

    Needs an update

    Frustrated ?
    The speakers that you buy are good but this app is a waste of time and does not work to its full potential I often found myself waiting on the setup page to load, which never did. I don't even bother with the wireless feature do to how poor this app is (buy a different dock) Show more

    useless app
    I've always held JBL to a higher standards. This app is just terrible. the setup to connect to the wifi network doesn't work. the screen appears when you touch the setup button. I can only use it while connected to the base. support is nonexistent. better buy Sony if you want the wireless feature. Show more

    So poorly designed it's hard to imagine
    I recently got a JBL Soundfly Air, and for the sake of comparison I'm an IT professional and also own Sony SAN-NS airplay speakers and their companion app too. In the end, I got it set up, but I just want to lay out a few things here with the hopes that JBL/Harman ever reads these. 1. Why try to replicate the iOS music player functionality by layering your own garbage over it? This app should do stuff not already built into the phone. 2. The pairing setup is a joke, you most hold your iPhone in landscape mode to read it, and it forces you to use a re-formatted browser page within its own app instead of something simpler and quicker built into a real app. 3. I can adjust some make believe setting called "3D music" from the app, though I cannot do something simple like EQ settings. 4. The app/setup webpage have no built in way to query for a firmware update for the device (and the link on the web is dead). 5. One of the four tabs of the app is a link to a (not even easy to navigate) listing of other JBL products. . .try worrying about the one I already bought before trying to sell me more. 6. Cannot check/adjust settings of the speaker (with the exception of "3D effect") from the app. Useless garbage for a device that is mediocre at best on its own. Show more

    No thank you
    Waste of money. Adds no value, and building a product manual into an app is not adding value.
