JBL Flip 5 Unboxing and Walkthrough 

Thanks!

No

It is not required but in order to do software updates and adjust EQ settings you will have to have the app.

Press the middle button (pause/play button) twice.

I have one just like it

how can i go back to the previous song ??

@_aandrxw_ there is not a way to go back to the beginning of the song or the previous song directly from the flip 5

@@MatthewBaxter2010 thank you thank you

I mean, it's loud enough depending on what you're using it for. If you're using it outside to fill up the patio or something that no it's not... Also, if you listen to the music at a high volume, than your battery dies faster. Sounds like you are wanting a speaker for outdoors for a party... Battery life is dependent on usage and volume.
