Bose QC Earbuds

It's a massive oversight that I can't view connected devices in the app and that there's not a button in the app yo turn on pairing mode. Some cheap Soundcore A40s I got from Amazon had this feature. These Bose headphones are amazing but getting them to connect to some devices that dobt have quick connect is a massive pain, e.g. trying to connect to a Nintendo Switch. I got them to show up once but not again and have never been able to get them to connect.

I've tried various earbuds and their apps and this is the worst app of them all. It's so slow to fully start, regularly hangs and misses basic functionality. for example, selecting the read Manual option, instead takes you to the Bose Store web page. It's not unusable, and shouldn't put you off the earbuds, but, if you're deciding between these and others, consider how useful the apps are.

I never knew that the earbuds this app is for turn themselves off after 10 minutes of not detecting any movement. Who thought this was a good idea for earbuds? You can't even turn off the feature using this app, which is the ONLY reason I even installed this in the first place. Absurd design choice. I wish I had known beforehand, I would have gotten a different pair of earbuds entirely.
