How can I use the iOS widget?

banner3.png

 

The widget for iOS gives you quick access to essential functions without opening the Bang & Olufsen app.

You can create as many widgets as you like and customise them to control your products and favourite functions.

 

Note: Connected Audio products launched in 2020 or later can be selected as the primary product.

Which platform is my Connected Audio product based on?
