    Short Range Bluetooth distance

    The range on this thing is between 5-10 feet so you have to keep your phone or device pretty close or else it begins to cut out. Other than that this is a pretty average speaker. Being waterproof is cool too but again, if you have to keep your phone in the pool with you, it kind of defeats the purpose. Check the range on other similar priced speakers before buying. The sound quality is great but the range is hard to overcome if you are doing anything besides sitting around a table or camp fire.

      iHome bluetooth products have a range of about 30 feet. If you are streaming music from an app or website (Spodify, Pandora, YouTube), the low WiFi signal may cause buffering or interference with the audio.

    I purchased this and used it a lot. The sound is great but within 30 days the area where the volume/power buttons are started to peal off as if the adhesive used to keep it there started melting.

      This has not been an ongoing issue. Maybe the glue had been compromised by a particular type of hand lotion. Please contact iHome Support for service instructions, unless the unit can be exchanged by the retailer. iHome

    This is an average no thrills speaker. It does the job I purchased it for (music in the shower). The iHome iBT37 replaced a bigger speaker with pause, fast forward, reverse features that I miss.

      Make sure the speaker is fully charged and don't forget to press the reset inside the waterproof compartment. It might be a good idea to delete the speaker from the other device and then re-do the pairing procedure. If you continue to have issues, please contact iHome support if you cannot exchange with the retailer: https://www.ihomeaudio.com/support/contact/ or 1-800-288-2792. iHome

    In the store it sounded louder. When I tried it, the sound at its' loudest was lower than my phone. I have to bring it back.

      Sounds like you need to "unpair" or "forget" the device, restart your device and pair to the speaker again when it is fully charged. This can happen when your bluetooth connection becomes corrupted. iHome

      Normally, the volume of this model is quite exceptional for it's size, so something must be wrong. Make sure the speaker is fully charged and the volume on the other device is turned up. It would be a good idea to delete the speaker from the other device and pair them again. If the volume issue cannot be resolved by an exchange with the retailer, please contact iHome Support for further instructions: https://www.ihomeaudio.com/support/contact/ or 1-800-288-2792 iHome

    speaker phone clunky, doesn't work

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    the speakerphone option does not work at all. this was one of the features I was looking for, but it doesn't work. contrary to the advertising, there is quite a bit of feedback. it will not answer phone calls as advertised. nor will it engage the speaker when dialing a phone number. the audio quality is quite good, especially for music and podcasts. quite disappointing.

      It's sounds like your iBT37 is malfunctioning, but make sure it is fully charged and try pressing the switch inside the reset port in the waterproof compartment. If the speakerphone continues to malfunction, please contact iHome Support for further instructions: https://www.ihomeaudio.com/support/contact/ or 1-800-288-2792 iHome
