Since the update, the Android app fails to launch when either my XM5s or CF100s connect. While the CF100s have limited functionality in the app, the dynamic ANC isn't working on the XM5s so what is the point of the app? I even have an Xperia 1V on the latest software. Also, the 'intelligent' switch off feature when you remove the headphones doesn't work without the app so it just wastes battery and sits playing music to itself if you don't stop Spotify! Fix this and the score will improve.

Please build an app that's fit for purpose, because this isn't. Sound frequently cuts out and custom graphic equalisers keep resetting, so there's not much point setting them up. I've connected the headphones to my phone and I'm actually listening to music and the app says cannot connect, check the device is on. Well, obviously it is! Any chance of an update/fix so the app works properly? Alternatively scrap it and rebuild it. Sony headphones and this app are really poor quality. 0/5 rating

The headphones are amazing. As is so often the case, software coming with the headphones is sub par. This is yet another case like that. Keeps the headphones on and drains the battery although it's set to turn off if no playback is on. The UI is designed by someone who should be doing something else. The settings change on their own. I don't know what's happened but now the headphones don't switch off if nothing is played and drain the battery. Why can't I charge while the headphones are on?
