WHAT FEATURES ARE AVAILABLE IF I USE Tidal THROUGH THE B&O APP?
Through the B&O app, you’ll be able to: view and listen to your preferred tracks and playlists, search for new music, assign content to your B&O speaker’s Favourite buttons, and get content recommendations tailored to your personal taste. In other words, you’ll get all the fundamental Tidal functionality, without ever needing to switch between apps.
CAN I USE Tidal THROUGH THE B&O APP ONLY, OR DO I NEED TO INSTALL THE Tidal APP?
There’s no need to install the Tidal app separately, since all fundamental Tidal functionality will be included in the B&O app. If you do choose to use a separate Tidal app, your content will be automatically synced across both.

Yes, you can. https://tidal.com/connect
WHAT QUALITY WILL I GET BY USING Tidal?
Tidal offers best-in-class sound quality with HiRes Free Lossless Audio Codec (HiRes FLAC) with up to 24-bit / 192 kHz. Most modern B&O speakers will use a specially calibrated Tidal stream of 24 bit / 48 kHz, which preserves the audio quality without additional processing.
IS Tidal SOUND COMPATIBLE WITH THE BEOLAB 90 AND BEOLAB 50?
HiRes FLAC can work on the Beolab 90 and Beolab 50, but only if a third-party player is used. All other products will convert HiRes FLAC to a grade that is best optimized for your set-up.
DO I NEED A SUBSCRIPTION TO EXPERIENCE Tidal?
There is a 1-month free trial for new Tidal users, after which a paid subscription is required to use Tidal in the B&O app. This subscription covers the use of Tidal both within the B&O app and on the native Tidal app.
