This app doesn’t have any way to turn off the touch controls. There is a screen shot in the app description but the touch controls config screen is gone. Really annoying as I’ve paid 200 for some qc ultras and I just want to turn touch controls off completely but there is no way to […]

First of all: Negative feedback -> email. Positive feedback -> review in the store… Nice one guys. Then I could not find a way to turn off “wearing detection”, which makes the earbuds completely unusable. If you’re just not able to correctly implement a feature, at least give is the possibility to opt out……

Flagging this as a 1-star rating specifically for a major missing feature. For whatever reason, the option to turn off in-ear detection is missing, which means every time I remove an earbud, the music stops until the sensor detects me returning the earbud to my ear, or until the sensor detects something like my pocket […]

Bose QCE headphones were simple, fast, and seamless, integrating with the Samsung S23+. Bose provides 3 easy steps to connect to a phone. The process was completed while speaking on the phone. It was that easy. The app works perfectly, and the voice controls for the headphones are amazing. The headphones fit comfortably and securely. […]

The sound quality is great and the noise cancelling is enough to allow you to hear whatever you’re playing in even some of the loudest areas. Just has issues with connection. Sound cuts off when tapping the earbuds to change a song, occasionally just loses connection to the phone, and has moments where you put […]

I just want to turn off touch gestures. The earbuds are great, but everytime I workout, my hair will pause my music, change the volume, or skip songs. I saw a post stating this app would let you turn off touch gestures, but when I try to connect my earbuds, it just opens the main […]

Very comfortable buds, but not very quiet, and not because of the ANC. No, the problem is… “BATTERY LOW!” “DISCONNECTED!!” Yes, the very shouty voice prompts. Apparently, this used to be an issue with the QC Ultra back when it was released, so I’m hoping for an update. Please, please add a ‘disable voice prompts’ […]

It finds the available devices but will not let me select them! Completely useless! These headphones are so annoying because every time I accidentally touch them (which happens a lot as one keeps falling out of my ear) they open up Spotify and start playing a song, even when I’m in the middle of listening […]

useless app, it finds my product (QuietComfort Earbuds II) but has no option to select, so can not proceed to do anything, these headphones just drops connection on the Bluetooth too often, and the only way is to completely factory reset the headphones, and forgets them on the phone so doing a fresh connection from […]

I received my new earbuds today, and they are great; good job, Bose! The application is excellent for setting everything up and is relatively straightforward, with a clean and intuitive design. I was however a little confused about finding the advanced/custom EQ settings section and I think that section is not clear, maybe put an […]

This app does NOT allow you to change the AUTO-OFF feature. That means the Earbuds fall asleep before you because you have to keep turning them back on every 15 minutes as you lay still, trying to fall asleep to your calming music or sounds. It’s supposed to be a option in Settings, but it […]

App works fine, but lost useful features. The biggest issue is the in ear detection feature can’t be turned off. While listening to music, if you relax and don’t move for 10 mins one of your earbuds will turn off or if you take your buds out for a few sec then you might have […]

So frustrating! Won’t connect because it wants to also install on an old phone that I haven’t used in 2 years and isn’t even active! Won’t go past the CONNECT option and just keeps looping me back to the Play Store to retry. No option to select a single device. Tried reinstalling and restarting, but […]

the earbuds themselves arent too bad, when they stay connected. As for the app, i would rather be using the original Bose app i was using for my older earbuds. There is no way to turn off the status voice. Its very loud! I dont need to be told “DING! CONNECTED! BATTERY 100%! The only […]

Horrible app. I’ve got 3 bose headphones, other apps way better. No ear balance setting. No way to turn off auto=off function. They turn off every 15 minutes!!! super loud technical voice, no way to lower. the volume is loud even on the minimum. No equalizer = a pic in description is a lie. when […]

The app is fine BUT there is no way to turn off the voice prompts telling me the battery of the buds, when I change the noise control, when my buds are low battery, and lots of other important things!!! When I try to search up a solution to this, it only gives me recommendations […]

Missing important options! Can’t adjust voice prompts or auto-off, at all! Voice prompts are pretty loud by default with no way to change the volume or disable. Auto-off cannot be disabled or set to a longer time. Forget about trying to use your earbuds to sleep or even just lie down for a bit. They […]

still learning, isn’t super clear honestly but I’m getting the basics down. I like the sound, wish it could go about 2 clicks louder. but the noise cancelation and such is wild, I’ve never experienced that. very cool. but overall it could be a bit louder as I’m into metal and hip hop. bass heavy […]

App is amazing WHEN it works, but often doesn’t. I love this app for my new Bose earbuds, but what is happening is that the app appears to “close” or “turn off” after a certain period of time and loses voice control. I get the message. Voice Control Off after something like 5 or 10 […]

There is no option to turn off the in-ear detection and that makes the earbuds near unusable. The earbuds will randomly stop working because it “detects” that it’s no longer in my ear, even though it is. Bose, please fix this. The old sport earbuds didn’t have this problem with the other app, but it […]
