Pretty Cheesy App

With so much technology advancements today, it's disappointing to see how little effort has gone into this app. Come on Jensen, you can do better!


Doesnt work

kroakjr

Horrible. Accesses music on the phone but no other control. I used to be able to select speakers and mode, but not now. I have iphone6


Will not connect

Can’t connect. If you delete the app and reinstall you can, but who wants to keep doing that


Bluetooth take over ?

Ok fix the app please .. Bluetooth will take over in the middle of the night and start playing music on its own .. apparently it’ll turn on my stereo and play by it self ?! Also app will constantly ask permission to open .. iPhone 7+ iOS 11.2.1 Jensen JWM6A


Worst radio and app ever

M0N-STAR

UPDATE: with NO HELP from anyone at Jensen I FIGURED IT OUT!!!! 1. Hold settings button on your radio until Bluetooth shows on the screen. 2. Turn Bluetooth off. And press any button to move away from that screen. 3. Then hold settings button on your radio again until Bluetooth shows again and turn it back on. 4. Then press and hold the Bluetooth pair button on the unit to make it discoverable for 120 seconds. 5. Go to your phones Bluetooth and you should see your radio within a few seconds. That’s the only thing that works every time for us now. We have the JWM70A (but not for long! We’re ripping this junk out!) Never stays connected. Always alway always takes 30-40 mins turning radio off and on, forgetting and deleting my device with Bluetooth and trying to reconnect. I am about to rip this garbage out of my ridiculously expensive toyhauler and buy a real stereo! How did they manage to even con their way in to getting this stereo in our rig! Not to mention where it’s place I can’t even SEE the display so I HAVE to use this app to use the radio! I’m 5’6 and the screen can only be seen if you are at exact eye level with the radio an inch up or down and it’s blank. It’s like the old “big screen projector TV’s”. Jensen is taking you back to the 90’s with this junk!


Ok, but needs work

Yes, I can control the stereo with the app, but it has a few shortcomings. One of the biggest issues is the inability to control the volume unless streaming audio from the phone. When streaming from the phone the phones volume buttons will change the stereo volume. When just using to control the stereo, the volume buttons in the app have no effect on the stereo volume. The other issue is I wish it wouldn't try to stream all of the phone audio to the stereo unless you are specifically Bluetooth streaming audio from the phone to the stereo.


Broken app

Last update opens distorted screen user agreement with no hint how to proceed. Not useful at all


I wish it did work

I had the app working on my iPhone X in March. It only was connected for a day and a half, then didn’t connect at all afterwards. I tried all fixes, even did research to try to get it working. After trying everything I could I just accept that I only have a choice of listening to the radio stations available in the area, which aren’t always great. I really wish someone could fix these issues because it would be really amazing to play my Apple Music through the Jensen radio and control it by the campfire.


Worthless!

I’m no rookie at this, tried many times connecting Bluetooth according to instructions, doesn’t work with iPhone. Apple please remove this app from the App Store, what a joke


Time for an update!

wasting my life on this thing

We have a brand new trailer that this Jensen 70 whatever radio/DVD. I don’t mind the quality and I can play things off my iphone using Bluetooth but have yet to pair this app. It’s very frustrating, I’ve read and tried all the troubleshooting and nothing.
