Some bad moments

Setup didnt work, the old version did work. I mean why do I need wfifi (Internet) to play music already on my phone. The Setup didnt even give me a blue tooth option... Or an option to choose the speaker as the wifi option, for playing music; thats already on my phone.
It keeps saying to connect to my device via Bluetooth..but I am already connected and streaming music to it!! Then I wont connect or show any wifi, it stays hung searching for one. Even though my phone is connected to wifi. Then, when I try to share my wifi settings from my phone, nothing happens. So the app does not work at all. Clearly, this is an app developed by a one-man team, designed by the developer maybe. Cannot compete with sonos.
I have bought the speakers because I was told from the seller that Spotify was on its way to be supported in few months, but that was a year ago. And still no Spotify... Seriously thinking about changing all my speakers to those actually having a great App compatible with Spotify! It would be great if at least the company was communicating on future changings/features regarding the Harman Kardon Controller App!... Too bad for such good products and sound quality...
This is a horrendous app. The connection drops constantly. And because it doesnt store any in app queues you create, you have to create a new one constantly. It doesnt allow you to use the multi-room option with services outside of the app (podcasts, streaming radio) like Sonos does. The speakers are good but the functionality through the app is so poor I wish Id purchased a different product.
Since I updated to version 1.4 Im unable to perform a successful upgrade to my speakers, BUG Fix is urgently required.
This system is fantastic! Hooked up to omni 20s and a 10. It works flawless! Sonos eat your hart out!
