Do I need the app to update my speaker?
The first time you set up your speaker, the app is required to download the
necessary software. After the first update, the speaker will automatically
download new software with important bug fixes and new functionality as it
becomes available (unless you disable AUTO-UPDATE FIRMWARE from speaker
settings).
The auto-update feature happens periodically in the background — there’s
nothing you need to do. You may notice the lights glowing on top of the speaker
or it making the power-on sounds after a new update has been installed. We
recommend keeping the auto-update settings enabled, but you can disable it at
any time from Speaker Settings (the gear icon on the top right of the app).

Do I need the app to connect the speaker to a mobile device over Bluetooth?
You do not need the app to connect your speaker and your mobile device over
Bluetooth.

Do I need the app to connect to WiFi?
Yes, but only when you initially set up your speaker. The app is needed to connect
and configure WiFi on your speaker. After the initial setup, you’ll only need to use
the app if your WiFi network settings change or if you want to set up your speaker
on another WiFi network.

Do I need the app to set up my speaker?
Yes, the Ultimate Ears app is required when you set up your speaker, connect the
speaker to WiFi, and to update your speaker’s firmware. You’ll also need the app
to authorize your device with your Amazon account for Alexa.
