Feature Request: Please make a widget, or simpler way to switch Ambient Sound Control between "Wind Noise Reduction" & "Noise Cancelling". I walk outside and into stations, and it's clunky to open the app every time to switch from "Noise Cancelling" to "Wind Noise Reduction" and back. Ideally I would be able to reconfigure the "NC/Ambient" button on my H900N's to do this (currently it can only switch between Noise Cancelling & Ambient Sound)

The voice guide and notification tone setting is severely limited. I would like to hear notifications for emails and messages, but to do so I have to put up with a tone every time the headphones automatically change noise cancelation modes. It's super annoying for music listening and disruptive for podcasts and videos, where I have to keep hitting the 10 second back button.

It's decent enough, my biggest gripe with the app is the speak to chat option. I use the headphones for client meetings and it's really annoying to have the sound/input cut off when I'm trying to speak. It doesn't turn back off automatically, and I have to manually turn it back off. Sometimes it doesn't work, which result in me needing to turn the headphone on and off again just to reconnect. I would turn it off, but it automatically turns back on with every update.
