I want to turn off the voice prompts. IE:

  • Turn on headphones -> "battery 3 hrs and 15 minutes. Connected to <device name>"
  • Walk out of the room "<laptop name> disconnected"
  • Walk back into the room "<laptop name> connected"

Previously, I was able to do this through the app. Like everyone else, I have found the app to be completely broken. It is an endless cycle of add device -> connecting -> failed to connect. I have tried:

  • clearing the cache
  • clearing app data
  • uninstalling the app
  • reinstalling the app
  • power cycling the headphones
  • holding down the power button until it clears the device list
  • forgetting / re-pairing with the phone

Nothing works and it seems there is just no way to connect the headphones to the app.

The ONLY reason I really want to connect them is to turn off the voice prompts. If there's another way to do it, then I don't need the bose app at all.

I'm hoping someone here knows a way to disable it.
