Same here on the sq. Yeah i'll have to play with the functions more. That app is garbage. it doesn't crash for me, it is just unresponsive.Looking forward to your impressions. Re: ANC, I suspect you're right in that it's just for calls. As for the controls, they are interesting in that it's a hybrid touch/physical button - first of its kind that I've experienced and kinda cool but also flaky. The Transparency (which by the way is not great due to excessive white noise - but apparently there are three different modes that can be accessed via the app that I can't get to work on either Android or iOS despite resetting the buds as suggested by Jabees support) and Gaming modes can only be invoked by a physical press rather than the touch controls. Agreed that I could also do without the beeping for volume but do appreciate the chime indicating on/off of the Transparency/Gaming modes - what I especially can't stand is the full blast shouting every time these buds are connected/disconnected or goes into pairing mode - wish one could tone that down. However as for the SQ, still really enjoying it.
Forgot to mention, the only other twe i've seen with hybrid controls is the BackBeat Pro 5100 from plantronics. and that Ambient has a ton of white noise, like the JLab Epic Air Sport ANC.
