Triby for Android
IOS is more robust, but the radio selection in Android app is much better.
Where is the Friends function that's there on the iPhone?
Advertised as compatible with Alexa but isn't in the UK.
Finally uninstalled the app. 25% battery usage a day on a galaxy s7 edge with never launching the app is a joke. Got a real Echo instead, much more reliable and accurate.
Bluetooth/Wifi does not connect. No way to set it up or use it without phone app. response from support no help at all. waste of time and money.
Seriously guys, one step forward and two steps back! Where is the radio search option and how do I play music from my phone? I truly hate when a company puts out a product that is clearly not market ready...
Crashes every time I try to type in wifi password.
Everything about this thing sucks. Apparently i now need an iPhone to get its firmware updated. All it does is give a Bluetooth error.
battery only last 1.5 days and alexa keeps activating without using alexa code word ..speaker sounds great
Edit: Need to get someone with an iPhone to set it up for you if you have an older version, but works fine from Android once the software is updated.

I love that I dont have to have my phone connected to it to use the radio on it. Cannot set the second contact preset via the app like the instructions say.
Was really looking firward to the android version. It works great even though few setup features are missing. Quality of phone calls us really good.
Would not pair with my new Triby. Tried it on 3 different versions of Android and nothing. Made the Triby useless. Upgraded the firmware using a friend's iPhone and it now works perfectly. The Triby is excellent.
Won't recognize that my phone is indeed paired. Hence, cannot complete the setup process. Hence, the device is useless, as there is no other way to setup device other than with a Bluetooth-paired phone. Very unprofessional to sell expensive hardware when the only control mechanism available is still in beta. Very poor form.
Device is $200, yet Android app doesn't give you the full set up options. Pretty underwhelming. Hope they rev it fast.
Bought the Triby early in anticipation of the Android app coming out (no Apple products in the household). But.... how is it possible to update the Triby to 10.34.0 in order to run the initial setup with this app when you need to first be connected in order to update the software? Guess I need to take it to a friend with an iPhone for setup or if I need to do a factory reset? Very frustrating.
No troubleshooting is working. Will change my rating when it works.

"calls not possible" error... Doesn't ring/can't call... This is so unreliable... Other messaging apps doesn't have issues like this.
