EON Connect for Android
Can't connect speakers. App won't let me allow permissions that the app needs. Keep getting a message that says "Screen overlay detected..." Had to borrow my son's ipad to connect to the speakers. I have 6 EON600 speakers. App only allows 4 speakers to connect to the app. Speakers are flown, so can't easily push the button to add them to the app.
Very quirky. Connects, then drops. Nice app when it works. But ... it doesn't work (connect) more often than it works. Needs a serious upgrade or redesign. Which is a shame, considering all the other powered speaker lines coming out where the Bluetooth actually works.
Great idea, in theory. However, app constantly loses connection and won't reconnect unless I reset speaker. Not so convenient during a gig. Regret spending the extra to get the speaker with Bluetooth connectivity
Wouldn't it be easier for JBL/Harman to just create a single, one-size-fits-all networked speaker control app that handles whatever speaker series is connected? What's the point of using Bluetooth? I have a PRX800 system, but went with EON's for my monitors; it'd be far easier to control everything in one app. So now not only do I have to run the PRX control app, I need to enable bluetooth to connect to my EON's to control them; duh, I should have bought all PRX but I'm not made of gold. It's OK I suppose for the single/duo artists but for running a band or such, it's not super convenient.
DOES NOT STREAM MUSIC/AUDIO. CANNOT CONNECT TO ANY BLUETOOTH CONNECTION EXCEPT THROUGH APP extremely limited functionality & usefulness. Also, JBL HAS LIED in its replies here claiming the inability to stream music over BT4.0. FALSE. Half of these reviews are customers who were mislead & disappointed by this tech fail JBL. When you advertise a line of speakers w/ BT functionality its pretty safe to assume your user is expecting the ability to be able to actually stream sound to the devices. I bought 2 JBL eon 610s because I thought the idea of being able to control volume, EQ, and stream an occasional song/audio from my phone would be come in handy. JBL hid the fact the speakers DO NOT have the ability to connect to a BT device like your phone normally & WILL NOT stream any sound whatsoever by burying it on a separate web page. I would have purchased a cheaper, better quality product from someone else had this been known. Total disappointment. JBL has a Music App which claims to allow you to send music to ANY of your JBL products, but once you try you will see they limit this to just 2 of their smaller portable speakers. Terrible business JBL. Wont buy any speakers from you again.
So only after doing a factory reset was I able to connect. So while powering up the amp, hold the eq and boot buttons in until you see the LED's flashing. Good luck
This app did not work with a new JOB Eon 610 speaker, It seemed to see the 610 but none of the control options did anything.
Never had problems connecting to my JBL 615 always work pretty well for the work I do which is DJing like the ability to have it connected to my speaker so I can check on you frame equalization's and control volume
I cant connect my speakers any more the app doesnt see them in the scan
I bought 2 EON 615's and 2 eon 618's and none of them can't connect via Bluetooth. I am starting to think that JBL used the cheapest receivers possible. If you guys don't fix this I will be suing you for false advertisment.
Trying to connect with android phone. Nothing works.
Garbage app written by garbage developers.
Cannot connect to jbl eon 615 tried soo much times.plz fix it soon
iPad app works fine. Haven't been able to connect with Nexus 5 or Moto X.
JBL! I would love to see more done with this app!
Fix it
This software was great on my old samsung galazy s4, upgraded to an s7 and now doesnt work. Wont recognise my EON 615's as being enabled
The app doesn't connect to the EON using my Samsung Galaxy S7.
Impossible to connect to android. Tec support rude. One tec support told me I am stuck with it. Amazon would not even take them back after two weeks. End up buying EV ZLX15P, they're excellent. No more jbls, JUNK.
I tried it on Sony Xperia Z with android 5.1.1 and Sony Xperia Z3 with android 6.01 but after the app start I can not connect to my JBL EON612 as the app change the screen and pish the + button, do not see the found speakers and do not able to scroll down, only the scan and cancel buttons are visible on the screen! After update still useless, the screen rotate automatically and not possible to choose the speeker for first usage....
I bought this speaker with the belief that part of the bluetooth capability was to stream music from another device. This is a huge dissapointment. Any possibility that the app might be able to do that in the future?
It is slow and buggy. Please make it a little bit faster and fix some random hang and crash problems. Android 5.1
Will not pair with Samsung Galaxy S4. Grabbed an iPhone 5 and worked fine. Slow and buggy. Please write a better app or lower price of speakers.
I just got EON 615s please fix this soon thank you. (Xperia Z5 6.0 Marshmallow) UPDATE. Thanks for the fix the app works great now
Trash app wont connect to my 615 series
Impossible make the connection, fix this!
Worked once since then will not connect to either of my speakers
Took a little while to connect. Haven't tried it live yet. But it worked at home.
Not working everytime, always we have to factory reset to work...JBL have fix that problems !!!! :-(
Great app.
This software was great on my old samsung galazy s4, upgraded to an s7 and now doesnt work. Wont recognise my EON 615's as being enabled
Might be nice to have a guide to pairing speakers. Maybe some active feedback "no speakers are paired please go to settings and pair a speaker." forcing landscape is odd. Does it work with android 6.0?
I am a software developer so I know compatibility issues can be tricky. But seriously guys, Android 6 has been out for 8 months now! Wikipedia says Harman industries has ~29000 employees—put 2 developers on this for a week and get it done please.
How frustrating that it doesn't work with the latest Android version 6.0 marshmallow
Doesnt work on android? Fix this and please hurry
The app doesn't connect to the EON using my Samsung Galaxy S7.
Can't get tunes!
So let me just be clear, this Bluetooth feature is only to connect to eq, and not stream music to speaker?
The best

I bought a new JBL EON612 speaker and the salesman showed me this app. He showed me how it worked on his phone, and told me it wouldn't stream music, only control the speaker, and he was correct. The app does everything it says it will, as far as I have seen. Customer service is imperative, that's why I only deal with Jeff at CLS I'm Durham NC. They're the best in this industry. The only con I have is no kind of owners/users manual included. Would be nice to know all the specifics. Other than that, I give it 2
