LG XBOOM for Negative User Reviews

Rk7 speakerThe speaker is brilliant and connects via Bluetooth but cannot load up in the app. Also when I see this speaker in curry’s it has 5 different lighting effects. When the product arrived I can only see 3 so not sure if their is an update for the speaker..Version: 1.1.12

Unable to connectBefore the update I was able to connect my LG PK-7 but after the update I’m unable to connect once again.Version: 1.3.62

It doesn’t do anything don’t waste your timeThis app doesn’t do anything. It loads up and does nothing. It doesn’t pick up any of my music. I have Apple Music and it’s supposedly suppose to work with it but it doesn’t. It doesn’t see anything or do anything. There’s really nothing else to say other than to don’t bother wasting your time on this app. The most useless app in the Apple App Store. Apple should remove it from their store as it’s an embarrassment to Apple..Version: 1.1.18

Ok99Why it doesn’t work no more it said that you have to connect to Bluetooth and am already connected.Version: 1.1.12

RSThis App used to work fine on my iPhone se2020 but now doesn’t. Tried deleting and reinstalling but no joy, still works on my iPad though. Irritating. PL5 Xboom Speaker..Version: 1.6.12

Very disappointedApp will not detect the speaker that is already connected by Bluetooth on iPhone. Help!! I need a remote!!.Version: 1.1.18

I can’t connect my PL2.Speaker is litteraly one of the best out there for the size but tried everything to connect the speaker to the app and it’s impossible..Version: 1.1.13

Xboom app don't work with (all) xboom systemsWish I could upload the screenshot of it boldly saying my xboom stay is not supported.Version: 1.7.06

UselessI tried to connect my xboom pk5 even though it’s connected via bluetooth i can play music with other apple apps this app does bot connect the device. I don't think the developers have done a real world test..Version: 1.1.20

ShockingSo having just purchased the rk7 I thought the app would help create a special night ! Yet it won’t do nothing! Speaker is going back I’m disgusted.Version: 1.1.12

I love the idea of the app but…It is a great idea for an app but it will not let me connect my lg pk7 to the app and I have read in other reviews that people are having the same issues and I believe that it is because we have i phones and it is not designed to work with iPhones. I would love if you guys aka the developers could fix this..Version: 1.3.62

RK7 speakerPaid $460 for this LG speaker and this app won’t even pair with the speaker on my iPhone or iPad. I can only connect the Bluetooth which only let me get up to 25 out of 40 in volume and I can adjust EQ and other settings on the speaker. Waist of money. Will never buy LG again..Version: 1.3.62

Keeps saying disconnected when I’m playing music through BluetoothI’m connected to the speaker through Bluetooth on my phone, the app still says that I’m disconnected..Version: 1.1.13

New updateNow I can’t connect to my 360. No way to turn the lights on or off. So now stuck with the light on all the time..Version: 1.10.04

It say's that it's disconnectedI bought a pk7 today, i have connected it but it shows (Disconnected) in the app!! Fix!!!!.Version: 1.1.18

App won't recognize connected deviceI got this app with the intent to update the firmware on my pk7 speaker. Even with the current software update to the app, it still won't recognize that the device is connected, rendering it completely useless. Apparently this has been an on going issue for months now, please fix this..Version: 1.1.12

Link between app on the iPhone and the speakerFirst time I loaded it the app connected with the speaker and I was able to play with the equaliser etc. Since then all I can get to is the error page which tells me how to connect my phone Bluetooth to the speaker - following the steps doesn’t work. Even though the phone says it’s connected to the speaker via Bluetooth, the app isn’t recognising this. Following the steps in the guide leads to the speaker disconnecting from my laptop. (I’m using the speaker as the output for the laptop for decent music and films on a connected second screen) Tried uninstalling and reinstalling - no change. The equaliser is essential in the role I’m employing it in because the speaker is really is too boomy in its factory setting..Version: 1.5.83

App doesn’t work. Sort it out LG !!!!App does not work. Just says disconnected. Sort it out LG. I’m missing out because of your incompetence..Version: 1.1.20

WasteI have an IPad and the LG CL88 XBOOM. All this app does is allows me to search and play my music. No controls for any of the other functions. Total waste of time..Version: 1.2.94

Doesn’t connect!Today had an update and it says minor bugs fixed but still doesn’t connects to the speakers to be able to update the firmware. Why did you make the app available for IOS if doesn’t work at all? What kind of bugs you think you are fixing here?.Version: 1.1.13

Losing connectionStarting toLosing connections with the phone many times on the day.Version: 1.12.09

App features disappearedAfter updating the app & the speakers the app no longer has the party link feature & some other features have disappeared from the app also. LG you guys need to fix these bugs or improve this app after the update the app has become useless.Version: 1.3.50

Great speaker but annoying app featuresI LOVE the sound of the speaker. However, a couple of things about the way it connects irk me. Firstly, if you have any of the mood lights on (which are cool!) the light on my phone torch flashes too.. I can't fathom how to turn it off, but it means I can't have the mood lighting on as it runs my phone battery down plus the torch constantly flashing is really annoying. Secondly, when controlling via the phone app (all my music is on my phone via soundcloud, iTunes or Dropbox) each time I literally do anything else on my phone like - play a game with sound, try and take a video or make a phone call, the music stops. In order to take a video of the speaker working I had to use another phone to take the video then send to myself via WhatsApp, just to send to my parents to say thanks for my amazing gift! I've got round that by using a second mobile to control the speaker instead, but if anyone has a workaround for either of these issues, I'd love to hear the solution. Otherwise, everything else is ok and the speaker itself is amazing. Plus you can connect an aux cable or plug in a usb stick if needed..Version: 1.3.63

Shows “Disconnected” when connected...... and therefore no access to the tools to power up, control EQ, LED lights, etc. I tried reloading the app, forgetting the device, everything. It simply does not recognize the PK 7! LG, get your act together! This should just work..Version: 1.1.18

App doesn’t connect with speakerI get an error connecting with the app although Bluetooth is connected and plays music. I have no functionality that I used to have such as adjusting sound eq, lighting etc. Please update a patch.Version: 1.7.06

인식을 못해요블루투스로 잘 연결되어있는데 왜 앱에는 연결이 안되어있다고 나오는걸까요?.Version: 1.1.12

Useless app 👎🏻I downloaded the app hoping for a great experience and maybe a firmware update and it won’t connect to my brand new PK7W. I expected more from you LG how is the iPhone version of the app this broken. One Star 👎🏻..Version: 1.1.12

Doesn’t even workCome on LG, you can do better than this.Version: 1.1.9

I can’t connect my iPhone with the speakerI wish they have a turn on the speaker in the app so they can connect or something so that my IPhone can connect with the speaker again.Version: 1.11.08

Great soundIt really does have great sound, very portable. But it’s not connect to my iPhone 12…WHY?.Version: 1.12.09

Rk7I would love to be able to use my RK7 speakers with this app and all the features it offers!!!.Version: 1.5.83

LG Actually Create an Apple App, PLEASE!!!What is the point of this “app?” There’s nothing there and it won’t connect to the device, even though my iPhone 12 Pro Max connects to it. I tried several different ways, to no avail. Ridiculous! Thank goodness the speaker works great, I just wanted to see what other features the app might have, like Sonos gives you. I guess LG doesn’t want to play with the big boys....Version: 1.1.18

Literally Took Away Speaker FunctionalityThis app has literally removed rather than added speaker functionality, the app originally paired with my LG GP3 bluetooth speaker and allowed for changing of the LED color displayed, changing the input/connection type used (which is critical for connecting wired to a ps4 which I often did) and even allowed a master volume control that allowed a better control of volume than setting volume ok connected devices. However, with a recent update every time I now open the app I am told the app is no longer compatible with my speaker. This means all those features above are completely locked away and my speaker was set to a low master volume in the app meaning it is essentially useless as I can no longer adjust that volume, or any of the above settings, without the app. Thanks LG, for making and ruining a great product!!! :).Version: 1.7.06

App doesn’t workDoesn’t work on the pk7 please fix it.Version: 1.1.9

UselessThe app does nothing. How useless.Version: 1.1.18

Disappointed..I have the PL2 speaker and it doesn’t work. Not surprised though coming from all the reviews on here. Very bummed..Version: 1.1.18

Connected and can control volume...But that’s it. No access to the lighting scheme or anything else for that matter. I have to use my daughter’s Samsung to connect and make changes or update. Come on devs- take some pride..Version: 1.1.18

Missed the mark on a couple of things.App works fine for PL7, disappointed that can not use app for PL2, and cannot multi link all the X boom PL platforms. (PL7-PL2). Missed opportunity..Version: 1.1.20

TerribleIt keeps saying “There is an issue with LG-PL7(33) device not supported on this app” Even though I am successful connected to it via Bluetooth and playing music from it.Version: 1.7.06

Won’t connectLike so many other reviews, the App will not connect to the speaker. One star because I have to give a star, but basically zero stars..Version: 1.1.18

Absolutely worthlessShame on Apple for approving this app to be in the store. They have not allowed much more finished apps in the App Store due to “bugs.” Not sure how this is kept on the store due to it not even recognizing that you are connected to your speaker. Shame on LG, shame on Apple..Version: 1.0.8

Worst app everThe rk7 speaker is brilliant but this app doesn’t work on apple !! You would think in 2020 it’s not a bit deal to have an app ....Version: 1.1.12

Another one of LG brand failures.So like pretty much all of LG products and software this app is a failure. Useless waste of space of apple App Store. Lg just remove your junk from the markets and let the real companies have the space..Version: 1.3.50

Speaker isn’t recognized by appYour update is horrid.Version: 1.6.12

Really?A major company like LG and this app is literally pointless right now? Judging by the reviews, it’s been like this for some time. You can’t do anything on the app, literally nothing..Version: 1.0.8

Updated app is rubbishI have 2 of these speakers and they are great, but after an update the app no longer has the function to connect both of them in Stereo or in party multimode so there in no point in having two expensive LG speakers anymore. Save your money and buy something else..Version: 1.3.67

No light settingsThere is no light adjustment or settings icon at all in my app which I just downloaded today..Version: 1.1.9

The app won’t connect at allLike everyone else says... speaker is connected to my phone but the app only reads “disconnected” no matter what I try. Will be wary of purchasing from LG again..Version: 1.1.18

App not workingMy app stopped working completely I can not see where to change the light effect or even how much battery I have in so dissatisfied with this. Please fix this issue right away..Version: 1.3.56

Poor product*** Only gave it one star because I had to. Just purchased a new stereo system and of course bought an LG sadly though that was my biggest mistake and of course once again another product of theirs does not work like it is suppose to..Version: 1.0.8

Needs a lot of improvementWhy is this even an app if it doesn’t work, LG I expected better.Version: 1.1.9

DisappointingI just bought an XBOOM Go and it doesn’t connect to the iOS app at all. I used my mothers Samsung and it worked first try. It’s obvious that LG is neglecting its iOS customer base. The speaker is amazing but I’m considering returning it due to the lack of functionality without the app. I can’t tune the EQ, edit the light settings, or see the battery percentage without it. Get it together LG..Version: 1.3.62

In this case we need 0 stars.Got a XBOOM pk7 downloaded this app and nothin It won’t pickup the speaker at all first I thought maybe the speaker was defective but I tried it on my friends cheesy 60 dollar phone and it worked fine he also has a pk5 that works no problem so I tried his pk5 on my phone still nothing how is it working on his cheap phone and not my 7plus??? Very very frustrating On a side note it seems you DEVELOPERS don’t care this app is as low as it can be rated it seems you don’t wanna do your job a deliver a working app STEP IT UP.Version: 1.0.8

Used to workHave a pk7 and the app used to work as I had it as a party speaker. Cool lights and all that jazz . but now doesn’t work and now it has nothing ..Version: 1.7.06

TerribleDoesn’t even work at all with my pk5. Please fix this..Version: 1.0.8

Great Speaker: Terrible App for older iPhonesGreat speaker but if you have an older iPhone the app is pretty much useless..Version: 1.1.20

Doesn’t connectEven though the speakers is connected it always says disconnected.Version: 1.0.8

This app does not support the RK7What’s the point of this app if it don’t work it’s almost like false advertisement so disappointing I should’ve got the JBL.Version: 1.3.66

Let us choose coloursThen it would be great (if we colour pick one colour eg purple, with/without flashing) would make it a million times better! So easy to do please update the firmware with this feature it would be super popular.Version: 1.5.83

Cant connect Bluetooth speaker with LG XBOOM appI have a Bluetooth speaker (LG XBOOM PN7) however it can't not connect with this app while it still play music. The app give me a notification "There is an issue with LG-PN7 - This device is not supported this app". I don't know how and I need a fixed version for this issue..Version: 1.7.06

Is it compatible with IOS?Really developers ? How long are you gonna sit in this ? Will you ever make it compatible with Apple devices ?.Version: 1.0.8

Doesn’t Connect - UnacceptableEven though the PK7W is connected and can play music this App will not connect to the speaker. So unfortunately you cannot check it update firmware version. Unacceptable..Version: 1.1.12

App stopped workingWorked fine until about three weeks ago. Now can’t adjust lights..Version: 1.4.16

ShamefulWhy can’t LG make an app work with iOS just a joke and disappointing come on LG make it work.Version: 1.1.12

Wont connect to app after updateI have the ON 7 and the app gets stuck on a loading screen then says speaker timed out, it worked perfect until it’s update, please fix your mistake soon.Version: 1.3.65

Total garbageI connected to bluetooth like 4 times and it still said I needed to connect to use the app. Pretty fatal error right there. Might be worth fixing, LG..Version: 1.1.18

Can’t turn on with appWhat’s the point of the app if I can’t turn on the soeaker with the app? I have to still physically turn on the speaker.Version: 1.7.06

Not supportedFor the LG OK75.Version: 1.12.09

Works with LGpl7 but not PL2Works with LG speaker PL7 but for some reason doesn’t work with PL2 go. Also doesn’t link the two speakers together as can not use the app on iPhone as for some reason it’s not supported the speakers are more or less the same but one is smaller. Strange how the app isn’t supported on iPhone.Version: 1.4.16

Doesn’t work with iPhone 8The fact LG can’t get a simple app to work with a iPhone, in 2020 makes me not want to buy any of their other products, they clearly aren’t good when it comes to coding..Version: 1.1.12

Not supportedWow. Now the app is not supporting LG Ok55 speaker. What a waste of money. Better get sony or jbl..Version: 1.7.06

Crap AppThe LG Xboom app can not connect to my PK7 even when the speaker is connected to the device. Please fix this app.Version: 1.0.8

Bad bad badBought a PK7 and non of the lg apps work w iOS ! Can’t update firmware can’t do anything ! Now I’ll return this paperweight and pick up a JBL that works fine w N iPhone !.Version: 1.1.12

AlrightIt’s got cool features but says my speaker can’t connect when i turn it off so i have to re download it, could be better but alright.Version: 1.6.12

Bad speakersMy LG PL7 didn’t last up to three months the speakers went bad , sounded like the speakers is blown out..Version: 1.10.04

Not working with iPhone 8 plus iOS 15The app not working, i can’t to connect my lg fh6 speaker to this app, I’m using iPhone 8 Plus with iOS 15..Version: 1.3.63

How does it still not work... at all!?!?This app is a perfect example of people NOT caring. It just doesn’t work, plain and simple. Even when connected to my phone itself it shows as disconnected in the app. I’ve had bad apps before but never one that just didn’t do anything but take space. I give it -10 stars.Version: 1.1.12

Do not get if you have iPhoneThe app doesn’t work with iPhone and it’s incredibly annoying as I love the speaker I have.Version: 1.3.65

Not fit for purposeIt won’t connect all the xboom speakers. It will only connect the same 2 speakers, if you have different xboom speakers, will not connect them together..Version: 1.11.11

It was okayI got this speaker for xmas and it worked a treat the first few days, the app synced perfectly. Although today my speaker is connecting to the phone, but not the app. I cannot find any help on this whatsoever and it’s really bothering me..Version: 1.3.63

Very disappointing and frustrating appApparently my LGPn7 is not compatible with the app which was not the case yesterday. I could edit all sorts of things about my speaker and now I cannot. 👎👎.Version: 1.5.83

AwfulDoesn’t work at all, can’t discover my PK7 even when connected via Bluetooth. Tried everything..Version: 1.0.8

App could be a lot betterConnects fine to my PN7 but the apps features are quite limited for such a good speaker. No problem with the device itself but I think LG could really allow a lot more customisation in the App..Version: 1.1.20

Speaker no device connectAt some point I thought the speaker was bad,is buffering looking to connect,and say!!, no device connection or XBOOM no connect or pairing problem,all the rest work,bad app,only works the first time i bring speaker.Version: 1.3.56

Does not work with LG GP9I updated the lg gp9’s software because the app prompted me to, but now it’s telling me that the device is not supported with this app..Version: 1.5.83

Doesn’t workSo the PK7 worked great with the app when I had a Samsung phone. Now I have an iPhone and it won’t work, which means it’s worthless. I’ve bought a product from you that I can no longer actually use effectively. Thanks for that..Version: 1.7.06

HelpI cannot see ‘wireless party link’ anywhere in the app and I want to connect my PL7 to my PL2.Version: 1.11.11

LG sort this out nowI’m very disappointed that a huge company like LG cannot make a working app my phone will not connect to the app this hasn’t been working for ages.Version: 1.1.12

Doesn’t work with iPhone 8+, returningThe app doesn’t work even though my phone connects just fine with the pk7. I can play music but the app just says disconnected. Tried with my iPad too. LG, this should be compatible with Apple products!.Version: 1.1.12

RK5The speaker is connected to my phone but on the app says it not they need to fix this.Version: 1.1.12

If it ain’t broke…..!I have three PL7s that I used to be able to connect in multi-mode….this function no longer works and the app keeps reapplying “private” mode rather than party Please fix this!.Version: 1.7.06

App doesn’t recognize deviceI have an iPhone 12 Pro Max, the speaker is connected via Bluetooth however the app doesn’t recognize the speaker… it doesn’t appear in the app (pk7 XBOOM) Tried with a google pixel and works perfectly..Version: 1.3.56

Terrible, please fixLiterally doesn’t even recognise that I’ve connected to the speaker.Version: 1.0.8

PL5Won’t work, says there’s an issue with the device.Version: 1.7.06

Useless appYou spend 600 pound buying 2 high end speakers from a big company (LG) and they can't even sort out a little app , waste of time don't even download the app just have a cuppa instead.Version: 1.1.18

Why?I don’t get it? You can’t connect it whatsoever via the app, just Bluetooth on the phone. The app is broke. Get it sorted..Version: 1.1.9

Why can’t I use Party Link?I bought a second speaker (XBOOM GO PL5) so that I could run these in stereo. Why isn’t the option in the app?.Version: 1.6.12

Doesn't connect to speakerThe app says speaker disconnected (PK5) but allows to control playback volume. No other co trolls work. Useless.Version: 1.1.12

Not workingI have iphone xsmax io13.3.1 Won’t connect with Bluetooth Can you fixed Thank I have a Samsung and it’s work perfectly.Version: 1.0.8

DespicableHow can you sell such an amazing speaker but can’t fix an app, it’s been over a year and i still can’t connect my iPhone to the speaker using this app, how am i supposed to update my speakers software if i can’t connect it to the app, I’m a huge LG fan so I’m extremely disappointed and disgusted with the disservice we the customers are getting with this app and noone on the other side seems to care, save your money and buy a Sony or JBL instead they don’t have these simple to fix issues and don’t ignore it..Version: 1.3.62
