Terrible

Just doesnt work, very sad. Doesnt connect for some reason a complete and total waste. Should have bought Beats I am sure apple would not allow this lack of quality control. Big swing and miss

Backward Compatibility with Original Zik

This app needs to be backward compatible with the original Zik line. Great headphones but not making app updates compatible at the price point for these headphones is absurd. Please update app.

Connectivity issues with iPhone 6 plus

Seriously when are you releasing an update for the app to fix the connectivity issues!!!!!!! 400 bucks and app does not work with the latest apple products!! ------------------------------------------ The headphones pairs to the iPhone no problem, however the application keeps showing "No Device Found" when the headphones battery is low. After charging the headphones, I have to kill the app couple of times until it recognize the headphones are connected. I tried connecting the headphones with low battery to an iPhone 5s and there are no issues at all. Please fix connectivity issues with iPhone 6 plus.

Will not consistently connect to iPhone 6

Will not consistently connect to iPhone 6. Even when it connects to the iPhone, the app thinks it is still disconnected.

Works great, missing some features...

They connect great with my apple devices. You have to disable the auto-connect feature in settings if you have more than one device. If you dont, you WILL have connection issues. They need to add a widget to control the headphone features while playing a game or watching YouTube. Also a Mac app would be nice as well. Other than that, the headphones sound nice and are comfortable. The noise canceling are pretty good, not as good as the Bose, but close. The app is laid out nice and is easy to use. But please add the widget. I hate having to switch between apps to change the sound when I should just be able to pull the screen down and go.

Excellent app for Zik 2.0

I had no problems pairing and running the app on an Air 2 or an iPhone 6 plus. The app offers great control over noise control, equalizer settings, and several "concert hall" effects. It also has tons of searchable custom presets available for download and you can save your own presets. The app also tells you how much battery you have available and more. It takes a pair of rather plain sounding headphones (via direct cable attachment to source) and gives them life and an unbelievable amount of flexibility.

Older version was more intuitive

Not sure who these app developers think their audience is! I spend a ton of money on these upgrades and the older ones were better! The app was easy to customize. Who cares what the artist wants the equilizer settings to be! I hope Parrot upgrades its app to reflect the easily customizable features that we bought these excellent sounding headphones for. So far this app is VERY disappointing. Maybe over time I might like it better but at this time I feel "arrogance" the way the interface is presented! Gimme back my old app version!

Works as advertised

Headphones paired instantly with my iPhone 6. No complains about the Zik 2.0 or the app over the short time Ive been using them.

V1.0 app was better

I owned two pairs of Zik 1.0 headphones. From a hardware perspective, I like the 2.0 pair I purchased a month ago. From a software perspective, I wish I could use the previous companion app. The new app appears to be the creation of a graphic designer, not a product person. The interface is too flashy and NOT intuitive. An equivalent app experience would make the decision to buy the 2.0 headphones a no-brainer. As it stands, I cant recommend upgrading because the app makes equalizer changes needlessly difficult and doesnt seems to provide automatic power off settings the way the previous app did. Also, I fundamentally disagree with the requirement of creating what seems like a social media account to edit my presets. Judging from the very small number of presets shared by actual artists anyone has heard of, this is a failed experiment. Let me make easy changes to the settings on the fly and give me Lou Reed presets back. Happy to update review if any forward progress is made.

CEO

Had 2 pair of sennheiser bluetooth noise canceling wireless - exceptional phones - tried the parrot zik - very frustrating experience. Bluetooth connection never works. For the price they charge for these headphones they need to get their act together. Back to sennheiser for true quality and consistency.

Update wont open on IPhone or IPad

I have the most recent IOS. Resets etc wont fix the problem. Typical from Parrot

I cant open the app

These headphones are kind of expensive to be having these type of problems. Please fix it.

Aaaand its broken

App will not load since the last update. Fix it please.

Noise Canceling Broken

When switching on noise canceling I hear white noise. Feature no longer works properly.

Bug fix broke the app

Upgraded for "minor bug fixes" now the app doesnt open at all.

Bad update

Please stop "fixing" things, now the app does not open at all.

This app is getting annoying

Its 50/50 whether this app will work or not at any given time. The headphones are nice but they rely on this buggy app to shine. Starting to get rather annoyed at this doggy app

If Bluetooth isnt bad enough.,,

This app no longer even launches. Before that, is was 50/50 if the headphones would pair at all , or charge. I paid WHAT for these headphones?

Broken app

The app was corrupted. I fix it by removing the app and reinstalling it. Bad.

Go into settings to fix noise cancelling

I thought the latest update broke noise cancelling, but it looks like it is turned off by default. go into the settings and adjust the DB and it started working again. Worked for me anyways.
