You only need to connect 1 , only 1 speaker , then turn on the other one and press the connect+ button, now you can go to JBL Connect App and adjust something. Actually, you don't even need to download this app to connect 2 or more speakers. But if you want to use stereo mode, you have to download the app and go in the app to set which is the left, which is the right. Otherwise, the default mode is Party Mode, which means the 2 speakers share the same music and sounds. Remember, once you jump from a music app to another video app etc., The mode will automatically switch to Party Mode, then you need to back to Connect + App and adjust to Stereo Mode again.
When I do left-right speaker test, it doesn't show that it's actually in stereo mode, in suggesting? ......Edit: Never mind I figured it out. You have to make sure only 1 JBL speaker is connected to your phone at a time and make sure the second speaker is not paired to your phone. With only 1 speaker connected to your phone, you connected the second speaker with the the connect button on the speaker. ...And I even notice the bluetooth light is turned on the speake that's not connected to phone, it's only connected to the other speaker.
Thank you are a life saver! Yes, you only need to connect 1 , only 1 speaker , then turn on the other one and press the connect+ button, now you can go to JBL Connect App and adjust something.

Heanly Hyral That‘s a very good question. I tried it with my MacBook Pro a few weeks ago and it didn’t work. There was or maybe still is no app for macOS nor for Windows. Please let me now if you can manage to make it work.
@@DigitalPhilosophers I just stumbled upon this just now. Personally my ears are very sensitive so I can easily distinguish if the speakers are in Party or Stereo. You can emulate it yourself if you put the flip 4's at a 45 degree angle to your left and to your right with the jbl logo facing you. You'll notice that if its in party your ears would hear like the sound is coming directly in front of you, but if its on stereo you would hear a surround sound like dolby. Anyway to make the speakers stereo here's what I accidentally discovered. I connected my pc to my 1st jbl then pressed the connect plus button and then connected my 2nd jbl with my phone and then turned the connect plus so now they're synchronized with each other. I also discovered that the speakers can only connect to one device at a time. Anyway, I went to the jbl connect app on my phone connected to my 2nd jbl and from there changed the mode to stereo and there you go its stereo.
Thank you for your sharing. I have a question. I have one and I am thinking to buy another one to use both during watching movies in my Mac. If we have to activate JBL app, do you know if it is possible to connect 2 jbl devices on PC. Have you experienced it or do you recommend it?
Selamün aleyküm Alper, there is one workaround to make it work. One follower commented how it‘s done. I‘ld have to look for that comment. Maybe you’ll find it too
The Flip 4 is a STEREO speaker. It's also a speaker phone. Fidelity is awesome for its size once you get used to the sound. The Flip 4 is Stereo the Flip 5 is Mono. The 4 has a speaker phone the 5 does not. To mate the 4 with another 4 to produce stereo is a hair redundant.
The ability to separate each side of a stereo pair improves the sound of the Flip 4 enormously. When setting up a stereo speakers, putting the left and right channels results in what's called "stereo separation." Also, when you add the additional amp and drivers, the overall power output is doubled, resulting in greater overall loudness. This is important to distortion--you can keep each Flip 4 at a lower volume level than when used alone, and you get cleaner, clearer sound. If you crank them to top volume, you'll hear distortion, but you won't need to. Additionally, you can join more than 100 speakers. This is fantastic for giant rooms.
@@neuromonkey I totally concur with two channel separation. However, ever been somewhere where there was 100 JBL Flips lined up ? I haven't. I have yet to think of any scenario where you would use multiple Flips . It defeats their purpose, don't you think ? My Teal Flip 4 is my shower companion and I can't ask for a more efficient and reliable portable speaker. Cheers.
How is the speaker's strength when two flip 4s are paired together? The reason I'm asking is I would like to get another flip 4 to pair my existing flip 4 speaker with.
Digital Philosophy you won’t believe this, but I was playing a video game the just yesterday and the song happened to come on. I got the name of it, “carnival of the animals-the swan”. How lucky is that 😂
@@joebidenshearingaid1618 u can get a bigger one bro i tried it with a charge 3 and a charge 4 of my friend and it worked perfectly but it might not be working these days cause i did it 2 years ago but it did work
hi. I have two charge 3 speakers that I would like to listen to in stereo using the aux outputs. the source is a smartphone. what kind of cable can i use?
If you have a smartphone with an usb-c or lightning connector you need an adapter to usb-a to connect it to a DAC (e.g. Audioquest Dragonlfy Red) and then an analogue Y-cable having one 3,5mm jack on one side and two 3,5mm jacks on the other
@@DigitalPhilosophers i have dragonfly dac but my doubts are related to the cable model i have to buy. I really care that one speaker makes a channel and the other speaker another channel. stereo. could you suggest me a cable in particular suitable for this purpose on amazon?
is there anyone encounter a problem like two devices connected-paired in stereo mode but actually it's working party mode. Sound is so mono to my ears even if it's in stereo mode. Any suggestions about that? JBL connect is working fine seemingly.
@@DigitalPhilosophers thank you friend. I figure that out. Sollution is not to pair both devices to your cell. Just pair one and go on pairing two speakers to each other. if you do otherwise party mode always be on. No matter you change it to stereo mode. That's all..
@@tishandassanayake9010 possible reason that your cellphone recognizes both of your speaker. If you remove one of them, i guess that problem will be solved. But if that does not work follow the steps. Remove all speakers from your BT list. And remove jbl connect. Start over. First connect only one of your speaker to cellphone. Than install JBL connect and run. Let JBL connect recognize charge 4. Then connect second speaker to the first one via pressing connect plus. Make sure the cellphone recognizes only one of your speaker.
Remember, once you jump from a music app to another video app etc., The mode will automatically switch to Party Mode, then you need to back to Connect + App and adjust to Stereo Mode again.
Also means I can't use the speakers in stereo to watch or listen to youtube. Real glaring oversight there, very annoying indeed. I wish they would just remember the setting!
@@DigitalPhilosophers Thank you ...I read it..but i have only paired one speaker....it work in stereo mode but, it goes back to party mode everytime i change a song. Why is that ?
It’s suck you have to switch on the stereo mode every time you change the song the JBL app is fucking useless The stereo mode is also suck JBL should make the app better more control the speakers again JBL app is suck
