When I first got the Bose Soundtouch the IOS App was very difficult to use but not impossible. I've not had IOS for 2 months so I've no idea if the App has become any more accessible butI can tell you that the App was updated for IOS was updated several times when I was using it and improvements were added thus. For accessibility as I remember things the IOS and Android Apps would be about equal now. The Windows App was accessible though you had to know exactly what you were doing in order to use it and the Mac App wasn't accessible at all last time I tried it, time to try all that stuff again as I'm wondering whether I should buy the Bose Wave Soundtouch or something else.
