I know that the Beosound 5 Encore is pretty old now but still it is so cool looking.... Yesterday I upgraded my speakers to Beolab 5s and man I love the setup.

 

The only thing which I wish I could do would be to have an app on my phone to be able to view my music on the network and like a remote choose which one I want the BS5 to play..... Or have the ability to airplay from my phone streaming stations like Pandora. Another wish would be to have an app that mirrors the BS5 encore interface on my phone that lets me control it.

 

I know that I can get a bluetooth receiver and plug it in the AUX in, but that is not a slick solution that I would like to have. The BS5 is based on android system do they have chrome cast built in? is there a way to tap into it?

On my iPhone I use Creation 5. For me it is worth the price of about 10 € for the full version.

Hi Peter thank you so much for giving the suggestion, can you please tell me a little more what does this app allow you to do?? Do you need to have the music on your phone? Can you control the BS5 from it to choose tracks?
