Q: Hi, Does this JBL Charge 5 portable bluetooth speaker only work through a JBL app?

submitted by TChat - 7 months ago
  • A: Thanks for your question. Our JBL Charge 5 can connect directly to your source device via Bluetooth and doesn't require an app to connect. You can utilize the JBL Portable app to enable advanced control.

    submitted byJBL Support - 7 months ago
    Brand expert
  • A: Hi TChat, thanks for reaching out about JBL Charge 5 Portable Bluetooth Waterproof Speaker. It's important to distinguish between the standard JBL Charge 5 and the JBL Charge 5 Wi-Fi, as their app functionalities differ slightly: JBL Charge 5 (Bluetooth Only): This version primarily relies on Bluetooth connectivity. You can absolutely use it without the JBL Portable app. However, the JBL Portable app enhances the experience by offering features like: Firmware updates. Equalizer (EQ) adjustments. PartyBoost control (for connecting multiple JBL speakers). So, while the app is optional for basic Bluetooth playback, it adds valuable functionality. JBL Charge 5 Wi-Fi: This version has both Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity. The JBL One app is more integral to this model, especially for setting up and utilizing its Wi-Fi capabilities, including: Connecting to your Wi-Fi network. Accessing streaming services. Customizing EQ settings. So with the Wi-Fi version of the charge 5, the app is more heavily used. If you have any additional questions, we welcome you to contact MyTGTtech at 833-848-8324 every day, between 7am-11pm CST.

However, it's important to keep the charging port flap closed when the speaker is not in use to maintain its water resistance.

    Overall a good speaker. Its sound is clear till you turn it up full, distorts the sound a bit. Made well and is heavier than expected. It’s one of the better ones on the market.

    I bought this JBL Charge 5 to use in an audio setup, but was very disappointed to realize that it has no 1/8" audio jack, and that this seems to have changed from the JBL Charge 4 and all the previous models, which did have one. I brought this without checking first, since my friend's older JBL Charge had an audio jack. This meant I could not use it for my project at all. I don't know why they removed the audio jack – it's not like they are short on space. It's a portable speaker. I should be able to plug my audio into it. Disappointed.

    Thanks for your feedback. Yes, our JBL Charge 5 doesn't have an audio input. You may want to consider our JBL Charge 6, as it can connect to a laptop via Bluetooth or USB-C connection for lossless audio. Please make sure to press and hold the play button before plugging the USB-C cable into your speaker. You will hear an audible confirmation. If you prefer a 3.5mm aux connection, you may check our JBL Charge 4. If you need more help, please contact our customer support.

    Thanks for your feedback. If you are referring to the PartyBoost feature. Please know that the PartyBoost is not available when your JBL Charge 5 is connected to a computer via Bluetooth. This is a technical limitation. When connected to a computer, the computer acts as the primary device. Therefore, your JBL Charge 5 does not have control of re-transmitting the Bluetooth signal to other JBL speakers. If you need further assistance, you may contact us.
