Works well with my ATS-2070. Simple interface and easy to use. Also like to add that Bluetooth reception on the soundbar is very good too - long range and the source doesn't need to be placed directly in a straight sight line in front of the soundbar. 👍

Works fine for me on my Yamaha YAS 108 Sound Bar. Can power on and off as well as switch inputs and make audio adjustments as need. So glad because the sound bar remote has vanished !!! If you're having trouble getting it to work, I suggest you uninstall the app, power cycle your phone then reinstall. I do this with any app that does not work the first time the way it should.

I have had to re-pair the app to my soundbar every time I turn it on, and it does not work like a remote to power the device on and off, but it sounds great!

Why does this require my location data to work? There shouldn't be any reason that the app needs my phone's location just to connect to the Bluetooth, but unless you allow it to access it will pretend it cannot connect to the speaker. This is an unnecessary violation of privacy.

Worked fine for a long time now for some reason I can't control the sound bar from my phone. I've uninstalled the app and reinstalled several times and connected and disconnected via Bluetooth as well
