Description

The Cloud is Dead. Your Speakers Live On.

Controller Pro is the ultimate, cloud-independent smart home app designed specifically for your legacy SoundTouch speakers. As official cloud servers shut down and become unreachable, Controller Pro steps in to save your premium hardware from becoming e-waste. We communicate directly with your speakers over your local Wi-Fi network—no accounts, no cloud dependencies, and zero lag.

⚠️ IMPORTANT TRANSPARENCY NOTE:
Due to the permanent shutdown of Bose's servers, the speaker hardware can no longer play Amazon or live radio on its own. Our built-in Web Radio feature requires a Bluetooth connection to your speaker. The app fetches the station to your phone and casts the audio over. All other features (Volume, Grouping, NAS, Spotify) still work flawlessly over your Wi-Fi!

✨ KEY FEATURES:

⚡ Lightning-Fast Local Wi-Fi Control: Bypass sluggish cloud servers for instant volume adjustment, grouping, and source switching via our custom "Anti-Jam" network protocol.

🗄️ Local NAS & Media Streaming: Seamlessly browse and play music from your existing local network DLNA/UPnP media servers and PC libraries directly through your speakers.

📻 Built-In Web Tuner: Continue listening to global internet radio directly through the app (via Bluetooth), entirely bypassing broken native TuneIn integrations.

💾 Hardware Presets & Recents: Map your favorite local NAS folders or albums directly to the physical 1-6 buttons on top of your speaker. (Note: Due to hardware limits, physical buttons only support local NAS media, not web radio).

👯 Stereo Pair Support: Full native control compatibility for speakers (like ST-10s) that have already been bound into dedicated Left and Right audio channels.

🎛️ The Pro Zone Mixer: Flawless multi-room audio. Group your speakers (ST10, ST20, ST30s and Soundbars) and sync relative volume levels across your entire home instantly.

📸 Multi-Room Snapshots (Scenes): Capture the exact state of your home's audio set-up and deploy it later with a single tap.

⚙️ Deep Hardware Controls: Dynamically adjust Bass, Auto-Off standby timers, and OLED clock settings (ST20/ST30) using true Read-Modify-Write hardware commands.

🎵 Smart Spotify Handoff: Launch directly into your last-played Spotify Connect session with a single tap.

Future-Proof Your Audio.
Whether you own a SoundTouch 10, 20, 30, or a Soundbar, Controller Pro ensures your premium audio ecosystem remains fast, reliable, and entirely under your control.

(Note: This app is an independent, community-driven project and is not affiliated with Bose Corporation. Requires your speakers to be on the same local Wi-Fi network as your phone/tablet).

v8.0.3

I'm so happy people are trying to fing solutions for the software obsolence Bose created. It took a while until the app located my speakers, but after making sure they where not connected to any app amymore and turned "off", the app found them. Unfortunatly the radio I play via the app turns off after about 30 seconds. Can you fix that?

Developer Response

Hi Aylin, thanks for the support! That 30s drop is Android 16 putting background WebViews to sleep. On your S24, go to Settings > Apps > Controller Pro > Battery and change it to 'Unrestricted' (Nicht eingeschränkt). For a permanent fix that lets you turn your phone off entirely, check out the Rescue Node at controllerpro.app!

Es funktioniert bei mir FAST alles. Aber eigentlich wollte ich vor allem über WLAN streamen, geht seit der Abschaltung der Bose Cloud aber nur mehr über Bluetooth. Habe mir von den Entwicklern mehr erwartet. App war zwar nicht sehr teuer, für mich aber Geld umsonst ausgegeben. Verwende zum Streamen jetzt Spotify Connect und für Webradio VRadio oder RadioUpnp (Letzteres ist gratis!).

Developer Response

Hallo Peter. Das WLAN-Problem liegt an der Bose-Hardware (sie sucht nach der ausgefallenen Cloud), nicht an uns Entwicklern. Ich arbeite aber gerade an einem „Rettungsknoten“ (Hardware), um die WLAN-Verbindung wiederherzustellen! Schick mir deine GPA-Nummer für eine vollständige Rückerstattung: the.app.guy2026@gmail.com

Verbindung meiner Bose wave Soundtouch 4 nicht möglich. auf werk zurückgestellt alles probiert, sogar mit lan kabel verbunden. wird nicht gefunden. Vl gibt es ein Update.... Danke

Developer Response

Hi Benjamin. Android 16 network security often blocks the app's radar. Go to Android Settings > Apps > Controller Pro and ensure "Nearby Devices" is ALLOWED. If it still fails, find the speaker's IP address on your router and type it directly into the "ADD SPEAKER BY IP" box in the app's Connections menu. Email me: the.app.guy2026@gmail.com

v7.9.5

Gibt Sound Touch 20 wieder Leben Hatte anfangs das Problem das ST nicht auffindbar trotz gleichem Netzwerk und erteilten App Berechtigungen. Mein Lösungsweg: Reset ST, über alte BoseApp von Handy ST wieder im Netzwerk eingebunden, IP Adrrsse über FritzBox herausgefunden, über manuelle IP Eingabe ST in diese App eingebunden (Suche funktionierte nicht), fertig. 3 Anläufe aber jetzt funktioniert alles. Habe mir zu Nutzung der App ein Samsung Tap A11 geholt und bin damit zufrieden.

Developer Response

Hi Noelia! Thank you for the 4 stars and for sharing your solution. Android 16's strict security often blocks the automatic radar, so using your Fritz!Box to find the IP and entering it manually into the "ADD SPEAKER BY IP" box is the perfect workaround. I am thrilled you brought your SoundTouch 20 back to life!

ich kann keine live Stream der Radio Sender wie versprochen hinzufügen leider....

Developer Response

Hi Andi. Due to the Bose server shutdown, the speaker's hardware now rejects web URLs for physical preset buttons. To play live radio, the app acts as the "tuner" and requires a Bluetooth connection. Just pair your phone to the speaker via Bluetooth once, and the app will route the audio! Email the.app.guy2026@gmail.com for a refund.
