When I first got the Bose Soundtouch the IOS App was very difficult to
use but not impossible.
I've not had IOS for 2 months so I've no idea if the App has become any
more accessible butI can tell you that the App was updated for IOS was
updated several times when I was using it and improvements were added thus.
For accessibility as I remember things the IOS and Android Apps would be
about equal now.
The Windows App was accessible though you had to know exactly what you
were doing in order to use it and the Mac App wasn't accessible at all
last time I tried it, time to try all that stuff again as I'm wondering
whether I should buy the Bose Wave Soundtouch or something else.

Oh this is just way too super epic dude! How more accessible is it than the IOS
app? Or are they quite equal? I was shocked to leain when I first heard of the
sound touch stuff that it was so inaccessible as it was. I mean, come on. This
is Bose we are talking about here. Bose who use to even do stuff in braille.
Very odd.

Subject: Multi Room Sound Controlled By Your Android Device
I've had a Bose Soundtouch Portable for 9 months.
Initially the only way of controlling the Soundtouch was via the IOS Smartphone
App but Android Lollypop has changed all that, the Soundtouch Android App works
quite well and I'm able to get to most of the functions I need, I can search
for stations, browse the station list, look at what I've recently listened to,
select which preset I wish to hear, browse my media library on my UPNP media
server, select what I want to listen to on pandora and so on.
I'm not saying that accessibility can't be improved upon because it certainly
can but enough information in the App is provided to give you a hand and an
idea of where you are and what you're doing, given that then there's no reason
why you shouldn't be able to make near to full use of the Soundtouch system as
intended.
The Bose Soundtouch system comes in 4 models to my knowledge, the small
portable which has a surprising level of sound which will easily fill a
medium-sized room or apartment and is fully portable and can run from its
internal battery and moved from room to room, the mid-sized tabletop model, a
bigger tabletop and the Wave Soudtouch which incorporates multi band radio -
including AM and Digital radio in some countries - and a Multi format CD player.
