Philips Headphones 4+

I have the ta8506 and it connects to the headphone app fine, but there’s no personalization capability on the eq, the other features are okay, but I and most everyone else were persuaded to get Philips for this eq that was promised but totally under performs. If I were a smart person at Philips , I would probably get techs to completely re haul the eq on the app and make that so beyond stellar, it will blow peoples minds and maybe be able to recover from these numerous poor ratings.

I was really worried when I unpacked my headphones and saw the app was at a 1.9/5 rating.
I fully expected to have the connection issues and other problems other reviewers mentioned.
Maybe they fixed the bugs since the last reviewer but I launched the app as soon as it installed and it found my headphones instantly.
May be helpful to know I’m using the Philips Fidelio L3 Flagship headphones.

Wear the headset because it will dictate confirmation of your commands back to you. Make sure Left and Right are worn correctly so the instructions match. There’s an L and R inside the earphones to indicate which side is which.

Wear Sensor toggle: tap once on Left button (aka Power button). This is the setting that will stop audio and pause videos if your headphones slide out of place or you take them off.

Awareness/Ambience and Noise Cancel toggle: tap Right Rear button (zigzag label) until you hear the command confirmation you want. This is the command that muffles or lets you hear surrounding noises better.

Touch Pad disabling: hold down Right Rear button. This command will stop the right ear cup from accepting touch commands.

Voice Command: hold down Right Front button (mic label). You can’t disable this but you need to go to lengths to activate it in the first place.

Congratulations, you can now uninstall the useless Philips Headphones app.
