If you have recently opened your Headphones Connect app, you probably have seen the new popup indicating the app will be changing this October. The app will self update once it will be released, so nothing new needs to be installed.
I did receive this information earlier but did not have enough definite information to make a post. I was told by my source that the new LinkBuds Open and Fit will be the first models to have access to the app. My theory is that the new LinkBuds models will be the first supported devices, with current and previous model support added shortly after, starting with newer models. I could be wrong, and once the app update rolls out, all headsets will be supported.
Looking forwards to the update, hopefully Sony will allow more advantaged customization of the button controls on the earbuds and the touch panels. What would you like to see changed/fixed in the new app?
Btw if anyone from Sony is reading this, would love to test the app before launch. Of course posting my thoughts after it is available naturally.
I'm curious to taste this.
ReplyDeleteFurther support of older models...? 🤔 (Still rocking my WF-1000XM3s following batt replacement, so it's relevant on my side)
ReplyDeleteThe app is only pairing headphones WH1000X-M4 with my Samsung TV. I am not able to connect it either with iPhone nor iMac, eg not able to listen to music anymore ! Either the app asks to connect my headphones, saying that they are not ON (when they are) ar asks me to change device, where none of my devices appear. This is soooooooooooooo frustrating. Should I just throw away my headphones just because Sony wants me to buy the latest model when mine do worked perfectly fine before they changed the app ?
ReplyDeleteNot working with WH1000XM4 !!!!!
ReplyDeletethe new app doesn't work with the wh-1000xm4? I have a wf-c500, which connects with no issues. Surprised the wh-1000xm4 doesn't work. are you on iOS?
