SONR Dock Controller for Android
I have the speakers and app. Speakers sound great, great volume level for size. The app however does not work rendering the remote and buttons on the dock useless (except the power button, that works) very disappointing since i bought these speakers just for the app, guess i should have researched better
App for remote to Android dock
Bought these back when they came out. They sound good, decent volume, but there is little to no support, the speakers won't work at all with half my devices and the app is utterly worthless. It used to at least work on my phone but now even that is FUBAR. Just avoid these.
I've had this product for over 2 years now. The speakers actually sound very good for a small docking station. Everything used to work fine including the remote and app with my old phone (HTC Desire). The problem is that my new phone (HTC One X+) that is listed on the list of supported phones does not actually work properly with their provided audio plug. Their plug has one less ring around it so it does not make contact properly with the HTC One X+ audio jack. It should not be included on the supported devices list or at least included with an asterisk. The only way to fix that issue is to use an audio adapter which utilizes the proper rings on the jack to make contact with the phone. The problem with that is that it renders the app and remote control useless. The docking unit will not detect a signal properly from the phone because it is not on unit's actual plug and running off the adapter. I have tried countless signal detecting apps such as the one from Hale to see if it would recognize a signal with no such luck. I have tried emailing and dealing with these guys in the past year and unfortunately it has not been helpful to solve the problem.
Dock does not work without the app functioning properly, and this app has not worked for (apparently) the past two years. Uninstalling this and returning the dock for a refund.
Used to work with my droid RAZR with beta version. Now I have a motoX which is a supported device and it crashes my phone when I first plug it in. I reboot with it still plugged in and I can open the app but all it does is constantly switch between dock connected and connect dock! WILL NOT PLAY MUSIC THRU PHONE OR DOCK SPEAKERS!Extremely frustrating being I used to love this dock. Now I just wish it was fixed and can't get thru to anyone. Also had to DL app called hale for some reason but still didn't work!
Awesome!
Keeps crashing.
I have had the matching dock for this app for almost 1.5 years. In that time this app has rarely worked properly (both this version and the beta). The main issue is the app keeps kicking over to the external speaker every few minutes. Sometimes an extreamly rare update will fix it, then the next one will break it again. This essentially makes the dock useless. Considering the developers just got a huge influx for money from kickstarter to rebrand this and the dock, this should have been fixed.
Doesn't work with my (approved!) phone -- only pause/play occasionally works, then it disconnects from the dock or crashes completely. My favorite part? When you try to send feedback using the "send feedback" menu, it doesn't send it to anything!!!! Fail.
