Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about Controller Cloud and our offline hardware options.

Should I choose Controller Cloud (from £1.69/mo), DIY Cube OS (£19.99), or the Hardware Cube (£85)? +

All three options unlock the exact same speaker features (physical presets 1–6, native TuneIn radio, stereo pairing, and NAS drives):

• Controller Cloud (From £1.69/mo — Recommended for 90% of users): The fastest, simplest route—and includes a 14-day free trial on the Annual plan (or a 7-day free trial on the Monthly plan). Zero hardware to buy or plug in—just enter your instant trial key in the £3.49 app and your speakers link over Wi-Fi in 60 seconds.
• Controller Cube OS (£19.99 One-Time): Best for tech-savvy users who already run a Raspberry Pi, NanoPi, or Home Assistant server and want a 100% offline, subscription-free setup.
• Controller Cube Appliance (£85 One-Time): A pre-built, plug-and-play aluminum box you connect to your router for 100% offline local operation with zero configuration.

Do I need to plug any cables or USB drives into my speakers to set them up? +

No! Thanks to our Zero-Touch wireless provisioning engine, the Controller Pro app configures all of your speakers 100% over your Wi-Fi network. You never need to plug a USB stick or cable into your Bose speakers.

Will my 6 physical preset buttons still work if I switch my speakers off overnight? +

Yes! Both Controller Cloud (running 24/7) and the local Controller Cube permanently store your 6 presets and NAS credentials. Even if you switch your speakers off at the wall overnight, they automatically reconnect when powered back on and play your saved radio stations or NAS tracks from buttons 1–6 without needing your phone.

How does Controller Pro compare to Bosman, SoundTouch Reborn, and other solutions? +

Controller Pro is the only complete, consumer-ready ecosystem with dedicated native iOS and Android apps, 100% wireless Zero-Touch speaker adoption, and full architectural choice. Our App (£3.49) + Controller Cloud (from £1.69/mo or £14.99/yr) undercuts €20–€25/yr alternatives while adding a full-featured native remote app, multi-room zone scenes, and a surround sound calibration desk. And if you never want a subscription, you can opt for our one-time £19.99 DIY OS or £85 Hardware Cube anytime.

Can I run Controller Pro inside Home Assistant or Docker? +

Yes! If you already run Home Assistant OS or Docker on a local server or NAS, our £19.99 DIY Cube OS package includes dedicated Home Assistant Add-on files and container configurations.

Does the ecosystem support legacy hardware like the Wave, Lifestyle, and CineMate? +

Absolutely. Once a speaker or console is linked to Controller Cloud or the Cube, it reports directly over Wi-Fi/Ethernet. You can seamlessly group, stereo pair, and stream across standard SoundTouch speakers and legacy Wave or Lifestyle systems simultaneously.

Is Amazon Music, Deezer, or native Spotify preset storage included? +

Spotify Connect, AirPlay, and Bluetooth casting work seamlessly through the app. However, storing proprietary corporate streaming accounts directly onto hardware presets requires corporate API keys that third parties can revoke at any time. By using open standards (direct TuneIn, custom HTTP/HTTPS radio streams, and UPnP/DLNA/SMB NAS drives), your presets can never be shut down again.

☁️ Controller Cloud · 14-Day Free Trial (Annual) · 7-Day (Monthly)

How 60-Second Cloud Rescue Works

When Bose shut down their cloud servers, your speakers lost the address book that powered buttons 1–6, TuneIn radio, stereo pairing, and NAS drives. Controller Cloud gives your speakers a permanent, 24/7 home in the cloud—without needing any extra hardware by your router.

3 Steps · Under 60 Seconds:

  1. Get the £3.49 App: Install Controller Pro on iOS or Android for immediate local remote control.
  2. Start Your Free Trial (14 Days on Annual / 7 Days on Monthly): Grab your instant key and paste it into Settings > Ecosystem & Cloud Upgrades.
  3. Toggle Auto-Link Speakers: Your speakers adopt over Wi-Fi in seconds. Up to 8 family phones/tablets sync automatically!
Want 100% Offline Hardware Instead?
You can also run our server locally with zero subscriptions using the £19.99 DIY Cube OS (Raspberry Pi / Home Assistant) or the £85 Pre-Built Controller Cube. You can even start on Cloud today and migrate to local hardware later.

Privacy Policy

Privacy Policy & Data Protection

1. Purpose-Bound Processing of App Data
Controller Pro processes only the technical data strictly required to operate your audio system. In Standalone and Local Controller Cube modes, all communication occurs 100% locally on your home Wi-Fi/LAN. If you opt into Controller Cloud, we store only your anonymous 7-digit Account ID, license status, speaker MAC/IP mappings, saved presets (1–6), recent stations, and NAS drive UUIDs so your speakers function when your phone is off.

2. Zero Analytics, Telemetry, or Tracking
Neither the Controller Pro mobile app, the Controller Cube hardware/OS, nor Controller Cloud uses third-party analytics SDKs, advertising trackers, crash telemetry, or behavioral profiling.

3. Communication with Speakers, Cloud & Radio Providers
The app communicates directly with your Bose SoundTouch® devices and DLNA/SMB media servers over your local network (Wi-Fi). When linked to Controller Cloud, your speakers communicate with our dedicated cloud bridge server hosted in the European Union (Hetzner Online GmbH, Nuremberg, Germany) instead of the discontinued Bose cloud. When streaming internet radio (e.g., TuneIn or custom URLs), audio streams are fetched directly from the respective radio broadcaster; no personal user data is transmitted to radio providers.

4. App Permissions
• Local Network / Nearby Devices: Required to discover, link, and control SoundTouch speakers and local NAS drives on your Wi-Fi.
• Internet Access: Required for searching public radio directories, validating license keys, and communicating with Controller Cloud.

5. Payments & Merchant of Record
All website purchases and subscriptions are processed by our Merchant of Record, Lemon Squeezy, LLC (or via Apple App Store / Google Play Store for mobile app downloads). We do not store or have access to your credit card or banking details.

6. Your Rights & Data Deletion
You can wipe your stored presets, recents, and speaker roster at any time directly inside the app via Network & Speakers > Clear Database, or request complete account deletion by contacting us via our support channels on the App Store, Google Play Store, or website.
