Setup Setup is extremely easy. You just connect the receiver to the USB C port on your phone and remove one or both of the mics from the charging case. They should connect automatically. There is an app but you really don’t need it. You can go into the settings of your camera or recording app and choose an external mic. For the Android Recorder app, I simply chose to use Bluetooth or external mic if available. That was it. The only reason you’d need the app is if you want to hear your playback without removing the receiver from your phone. Simply toggle the Speaker Play switch so you can listen. There are other options in the app like battery levels, a VU meter, noise cancellation levels, and playback volume levels. Now I’m not sure if this is by design or not but when I toggled that switch, I got a message the app would restart. Ok, no big deal, but just like the first time I started the app, it asked for permission to allow recording. It does that each time I toggle that switch ON or OFF. Not a show-stopper but I thought I’d mention it. Another quirk in the app is if you click the Info button at the top right, it gives you the firmware and serial numbers of the devices. It also said Already is the latest version so I’m guessing if it wasn’t I’d get the option to update it. I’ll have to wait and see.
