User Reviews

Users praise the Klipsch The Fives Updater app for enabling firmware updates and unlocking features like the equalizer, improving their speaker experience. However, many find the update process complicated and frustrating due to the two-step procedure requiring USB updates followed by app updates. Common issues include persistent update notifications despite being current, frequent Bluetooth connectivity problems, glitches, and confusing instructions. Some users had to try multiple times or apply workarounds for the app to function properly. Overall, while the app fulfills its purpose, its user experience and reliability need significant improvement.

Pros

App enables firmware updates for Klipsch The Fives speakers, which was previously difficult or impossible.
Users who managed to follow the update steps found the process straightforward and the app functional.
The app allows access to new functionality like equalizer settings through Klipsch Connect after firmware update.
The update process improves speaker performance and unlocks promised features.
Some users appreciated the ability to complete updates without professional support after multiple attempts.

Cons

The update process is confusing and requires multiple steps including using a USB flash drive and two separate apps, causing frustration.
The app frequently indicates updates are available even when the firmware is already up to date, causing repetitive notifications and annoyance.
Bluetooth connectivity issues are common during the update process, with the app sometimes redirecting to Bluetooth settings or failing to remain connected.
The app has glitches and bugs such as freezing after updates, unclear UI instructions, and crashes on certain devices like Samsung S8 and Pixel 7 Pro.
Incompatibility with some devices and peripheral hardware (like certain USB drives) complicates the update process and requires workarounds.

Guys, follow the step on the Klipsch website. First update via USB then use this app. This is because stock firmware doesn't support firmware updates through this app using Bluetooth. All good if you know what you're doing. I docked one star for the stupid two-step process.

Klipsch app tells me updates availability every time I start the app. So, I goto the Klipsch updater app only to be told you've already update. Not sure what the problem is but it's gotten old by now. Can't they just fix their apps to where I only need one app instead of two. And then get it to actually work.
