How to install KEF Control APK on Android phone or tablet?
Download KEF Control APK file from ApkClean, then follow these steps:
Update Phone Settings
Go to your phone Settings page
Tap Security or Applications (varies with device)
Check the Unknown Sources box
Confirm with OK
Go to Downloads
Open Downloads on your device by going to My Files or Files
Tap the APK file you downloaded (com.kef.remote-v2.5.29-ApkClean.apk)
Tap Install when prompted, the APK file you downloaded will be installed on your device.
A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.
Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?
A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading). As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.
Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?
A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.
Q: What are Android App permissions?
A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.
Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

1 ★1.8 star review! Do kef rear these reviews or what? Why create version 2 if you haven't fixed the first version? The app is straight trash bc it does not work!
1 ★On no other device I've known does resetting the device also reset the firmware, thus disabling some settings from the app and requiring you to update the fw every time the speakers drop from the WiFi...
1 ★No star can't Connect!!!!!! Seems most customers are left pulling their hair out If I can't resolve this they will be going BACK!!! REALLY DISAPPOINTED R Pearson
1 ★Feel like crying, spent a few thousand and this app is rubbish, can take hours to connect if you're lucky and then drops out don't waste your money.
1 ★Worse app ever from a great sounding speakers. Your mood, be it quiet romantic moments, parties, gatherings, etc, can be totally destroyed by this apps. Gap between songs can be more than 10 seconds or more, tracks drop out, it randomly jump to whatever song it want to play and worse still it just skip. A standalone Bluetooth, though no great sounding, but would not destroy the mood. Not using my KEF LSX for the last few months because of the reasons above.
1 ★Horrible. I'm so disappointed in this experience after such a great audio experience. This will prevent me from recommending these speakers to others.
1 ★LSX speakers, had a few problems setting them up initially, but got there in the end. speakers are 1st class and sound awesome, only thing letting them down from scoring 5* is the apps are not that great. You would think a company such as KEF could get a better developer for the app and have it all in 1 place, instead of having to use 2 apps to control the speakers. if the apps are improved and get more user friendly I'll adjust my rating. poor customer relations!! no answers when e-mail dev
1 ★Just bought KEF LSX Initially when I set them up they worked, then in the middle of playing a tune on tidal they stopped. Now I can't get my speakers to connect to this app at all, I have tried resetting, reinstalling the app, restarting my Internet, everything I can think off. At one point I had a red flashing light on the master speaker. Nothing I have tried will get these speakers and app to find each other over WiFi. A really frustrating experience. I don't even know if it's the app or speakers where the problem lies. I'm tempted to return the speakers for a refund. I already returned once as the slave speaker was making a nasty distorted sound. I thought KEF were better than this.
2 ★Does what it promises but still needs improvements. 1. Volume control from remote is circular i.e. if you lower the volume enough it goes back to maximum. This needs to be fixed. 2. Cannot switch to Bluetooth if Wifi is not activated without completely disabling WiFi. Going back to wifi mode requires resetting and reconfiguring. App update loses speaker, and needs to be reconfigured. Very inconvenient.
3 ★Hi devs, I'm an LSX user, here are some things this app desperately needs: 1.Option to disable the power on/off and Bluetooth connection sounds. They are so loud! We at least need volume control of them so they can't be heard in neighbouring rooms. 2.Left/Right balance. 3.Option to disable the standby LED. And would be good to have: 4.Volume normalisation (for tv night mode). 5.Bluetooth sound delay(for tv lip sync). 6.Mono mode,so you can use them wirelessly as a basic multi room setup. Thanks!
1 ★Dear lord this app is terrible. Wouldn't find the speakers, just refused to download and update the firmware. Just stayed at 0%. The slave speaker was just flashing red and wouldn't pair with the master. Finally worked out that your router settings are key, make sure that you separate the signal bands. Download the IOS version of this app, and complete the firmware recovery. Finally they paired and updated. Then factory reset the master and installed the Android app and connect to WiFi.
2 ★Good when it works. Recently it cannot find my LS50W. Tried restarting everything and still nothing. When I search the network, the app says but my phone is clearly connected to a WiFi network with a proper ssid, and my speakers are hardwired to that same network. Setup worked great and nothing has changed since on the network end.
