Seeing as B&O have hired lots of new programmers, they presumably will have the resources now for proper Continuous Development.

What things would you like to see them improve within the current app or with systems?

I for one would like:
Up/Down controls within the NL/ML Converter Controls (Really annoying if you want to change CD on the BS9000 currently)
The ability for NL/ML Converter Sources such as CD to appear within my other Beolink Products such as Beosound Stage (I currently have to call this with a Shortcut key, but it would be nice to see it in the app or under 'MUSIC' within the BeoRemote One.

(1) Make the existing CONTACT SUPPORT button actually work so that their support team contact you.

(2) Make the product list location-sensitive, so that whether I’m at my own home or my fiancé’s home it only shows me the products that are based at that location. And add a flag so that I can tell it which products could be at multiple locations (such as headphones, portable speakers, etc.)

I would like if it was possible to integrate it better with HomeKit

Improved reliability and connection times when connecting to Bluetooth devices (headphones).

Better and more logical controls UI for ANC/transparency that don't get reset every time you press the button on the headphones.

Better support and connectivity options for Mozart devices (i.e. wired line-in that can be transmitted to all Mozart devices across the network or stereo-paired ones).

I asked for pictures and got them on testflight. Still not the beolab as I requested but it is a start.

Spotify connect great progress! Let us not always focus on what has not been done this to me is a real welcome although only using it on party”s.

Qobuzz or Tidal could be the way forward. I think although only 20% will ever use it however as a high end brand it must be on there list. They should use it to brand B&O as high end. Seeing the investment as marketing and not as a product which brings gross margin.

Roon will never be in but a core as a RAAT endpoint also a no brainer to me.

Integration, use a BLI, it is all you”l ever need.

Switch off / make invisible unused sources

BLC: the possibility to access a numeric keyboard for choosing CD (1 to 6; just like the Beoliving app)

Edit:

Standby option just for a Group

Get rid of the plus aside the settings icon

I agree, Tidal Connect and Roon support should be a must for a product in the price range as Bang & Olufsen.

I understand they may want to support just the most popular service (Spotify), but when you're paying a premium price then you MUST have the freedom to use whatever service you prefer (as long is it is "relatively" popular, such as Tidal), and Bang & Olufsen MUST offer it as an option.

How did you do that? I was told this was not possible by many people including B&O employees.

I doubt this will happen, they're content on selling you BeoLiving Intelligence.

See my BLC setup, replicate it and you should get the same result:

Beosound 9000 NL/ML Converter / Beosound Core - (beoworld.org) (just click on the pictures to enhance)

 

Note: I have three BLC's (BS9000, BS3000 and Beosystem 7000 - all visible as shown).

Addition : If the Stage doesn't support primairy en secundary connected products as can been seen in the Shape (Core) picture, then it is not possible to replicate this with a Stage!

I agree that the BLC needs some attention. It has been horribly neglected. Commands often just don't even work within the app. Also, some options of using photos and icons of the controlled legacy products would be great. E.g., a photo of the Beosound 9000 rather than the current photo of the BLC.

Also, it would be nice for the app to allow sourced from ANY NL device -- not just primary and secondary linked devices -- to be available as sources on any given device. This is possible as triggered commands on the BLI.

Thank you, I have fewer options within my Beolink settings on the Stage so this is perhaps why I'm unable to get it to work.
