Recently Bose stopped cloud services for their SoundTouch app making it impossible to add music providers and using presets through the Homey Bose app. My Homey flows are still working but the Bose devices remain silent because the most important functions do not work anymore.
My question is if anyone is working on possible solutions? If not, should the Homey Bose app not be removed from the apps library?
Assuming you are using this app, it’s best to use the forum topic for that app. The developer might not read all topics on this forum and in that topic other users of the app can read whats going on.
Well, I did notice the most thanks to the quite offensive title.
So to sum things up quickly.
About the presets in specific. There are open source projects already out there to replace that functionality. They build right on top of the original functionality, hence why I keep it as it is.
However, you might need to jailbreak your bose device and run the replacement cloud server on your own premises. At this point I am not planning to build this into the app itself myself.
Thank you for your reply and no offense was meant by me. I am just a simple user who can do some things with flows in Homey making use of their apps. Totally surprised recently when my wake up ST20 in my bedroom remained silent. After reading the Bose verdict message I felt being thrown into a desert. Thank God my Soundbar 300 is still working wit the TV set, but no music. Even not with remote control. Only way out was Bluetooth but that is a stupid solution for my Bose hardware. All my hopes were directed on the genious people working in the Homey community on smart solutions and every day I checked if the Homey Bose app was renewed giving my Bose equipment new life. But nothing happened and in desparation I placed this question in this forum. In the wrong place apparently.
In the mean time I Googled a bit further and noticed a number of options and solutions. Believe me that reading all this stuff gives me a hard time. But I think that I will be able to make the best choice to bring my Bose devices back to life. Next I expect a hard time to connect this solution with my Homey system. No worries. Still learning new things after 74 years and it still feels good.
I suggest to close this topic and I will regularly check the correct forum topic on any future progress on the Homey Bose app.
@Jan_Peters I did create a Homey app to re-add the presets to the Soundtouch devices via Homey. Check [APP] SoundTouch Bridge - Local presets for Bose SoundTouch – all feedback is welcome 
Thank you Jelle. A friend sent me the URL of your website and as a Homey user I could locate your app in the Homey directory. Installation and adding the SoundTouch devices was easy. Configuring the presets was even easier than expected and now I have my Bose ST20 back under my control as it was in the past. Also my ST300 Soundbar is back under control for presets and basic functions. Bringing the ST300 remote control under Homey functionality is the next step.
Once again thank you very much for your wonderfull efforts on this topic.

@Jan_Peters I’m working on extra feature in the app to start/trigger a Flower, when a preset is pressed. That sounds like what you’re missing? If so, mind adding a comment in the App thread so I can easily keep you updated? 
Actually I think of connecting my Bose RC as a device to Homey. I don’t know if this is possible. Still have to try. Next to the standard functions on the RC, there are 9 preset buttons of which 6 are standard ST (same as the ST20) and an extra row preset buttons numbered 7, 8 and 9 added. And answering your question: yes, I am very interested to link these extra preset buttons to a Homey flow.
