Beep for Android
Google music support please
Great gadget ahead of its time. Easily cast and Spotify or Pandora stream to any of all of your beeps around the house. So sad to hear they closed shop Oct 2015. Wish SoundCloud would still work in addition to Spotify
Only really use to set up beep groups but it does that perfectly well. Needs that bit more flexibility of the group settings and functionality adding to it. Great first attempt though.
Works well with Pandora but I don't think that's worth the price for this. Really needs to support Google Play Music and music on phone. Also, it makes you provide the password to your wifi router for some reason which I find odd.
Scammed
As promised I am still waiting for an update which allows me to play music from my device... And in India it's a useless device.. I have nothing to play.
Definitely needs Google Music support. Options to turn the spinning lights on and off would be great. They are pretty, for a couple of minutes.

1000 downloads? Primarily, I was attracted to the WiFi aspect to get much better range than Bluetooth so I purchased 2 straight away with reasonable hopes. I despise these things and will return to Bluetooth. I have them paired with Comcast hi-speed Internet and a Netgear Nighthawk x6, beast of a router. The beep plays Pandora, Spotify, and select Web radio stations only...when it works. I have had to constantly reboot, repair, reset up both beeps which isn't always easy. I'm done. Back to Bluetooth for me
First unit would not work. Support is minimal at best. Sent a second unit. Didn't work. Again support was not real time and minimal.
Not sure why people are giving a beta product 5 stars. One of my biggest complaints is that there's no way to restart the unit from the app. I have to unplug the Beep almost every time that its left without use for a few days. No way to play Pandora from my HTC M7. If I play Spotify from my HTC then stop, I have to unplug it again to play Pandora from the iPad. Definitely a beta product. My Raspberry pi with Musicbox does a better job at a fraction of the cost.
This product apparently streams Spotify Premium, Webradio and Pandora out of the box from iDevices. Android users (no matter the version or device) will have success with Spotify Premium and WebRadio but must install the latest Pandora 5.6 Beta APK from outside the Google Play Store to get the 'cast' functionality to stream Pandora to the Beep. On the bright side, it does work once you do that (or it did for me on my 1st Gen Nexus 7/Kit Kat). Hopefully Pandora releases an updated client for Android soon. Spotify and Webradio work very well on Android. The Beep app 'integrates' with the music service you are using, so you launch the Pandora or Spotify App from within Beep. This is also how you 'group' things. The beep app works, but I wouldn't call it elegant. An updated version is apparently in the works. The app is simple, and there seems to be a lot of room there for more selections - that is services. Here's hoping for streaming local media as well. If you have questions for these folks, you can message them at their site, they are responsive. For price and quality feel of the hardware, as well as not being Apple white in color, I'd give it 3.5 stars.
Needs improvement for sure, particularly moving between android devices and when not using it for a while, it tends to lose the connection with the beep devices and the only way to find them again is to reset the beep devices by unplugging them and plugging them back again. Not good but this is version 1 and it will get better!
I would still consider the product to be in beta but it works well enough. My connection will drop at times but considering how new the product is I think the development team has done a great job getting it as stable as it is.
Beautiful device, app works very well. Google Play Music support would be fantastic.
Works really well with Spotify.
Google music support please
Great app for playing music through all of my speakers. Love you guys!
I give it 5 stars, because I have faith this is only an early version of what will be a great app for my beep players, but if I want to play music on each beep individually, I have to delete the "group" play mode. Also, I am heavily invested in Google Play Music, so PLEEEEASE, as well.
incredible
Works great with my 2 beeps! Now as support for Google play music pleeeeeease!!!

And that was all we got. No native dlna streaming function, tune in gone, soundcloud gone, spotify connect works on min, not the next,.. shame so much potential. Back using a PC but at least I can still stream to my beeps.
