After 15+ years, we've made a big change: Android Forums is now Early Bird Club. Learn more here.
I'm not familiar with the soundtouch by Bose. From what I find on the net, it is designed to receive audio streams from the internet via a WIFI connection. Here is a link to the manual: https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct...6oKwDQ&usg=AFQjCNHnhW1AnFKKhX9Zq0-h_sK_nPUJfw
If you are wanting to stream from your phone to a remote speaker you will want the Bose unit that is bluetooth capable. I hope this helps.

Hi,
i have the same issue. i bought the SoundTouch 20 and it is the most expensive brick i bought in my life... the internal radio stations it has are very limited (and does not include my favorites) you can use Spotify which is not supported in my country and the only way to stream music is using Airplay. i still try to find a working Airplay for Android which will not require to be rooted (as my secure email app will stop working)
to make a long story short. don't buy any Bose SoundTouch !!!! it is a scam!!! they should put a warning on the box that it will not work unless you are an apple addict.

It's because it uses Airplay, which is Apple proprietary. Better off with a speaker that uses Bluetooth, because that should work with very much anything. Try to use it with your Samsung or something, yeh, it's basically a $500 brick.
"Just updated after two months of not being able to use AirPlay. Updated both my systems and now nothing!!! It bounces on and off the network only being visible for a few seconds at a time. AirPlay does not work app does not work. Tried everything reset all systems and installed app. Still nothing. Both my systems are now paper weights. How does it take eight weeks to update to complete useless!!! Might as well pull the power out at this point as they are useless.
Do not, I repeat do not buy this soundtouch system. I will be calling my credit card company to try and utilize my extended warranty for the first time ever. Sadly bose promised a fix was soon(last month) and to my ignorance I held out hope. This system is total trash."
... that was an iOS review, that was on the front of iTunes for the SoundTouch app...
There's only one Bose product I like...
