As of May 6, 2026, Bose has officially stopped support for Bose SoundTouch devices. This has major consequences for system functionality, as key features that rely on the Bose cloud are no longer available.
According to Bose, the following functions are no longer supported:
Preset selection (on-device and in-app)
Browsing or playing music services via the SoundTouch app
Stereo pairing for SoundTouch 10
Important note: Your system will no longer receive security and software updates. Please make sure to always use your system on a secure, private network.”

Impact on TELETASK integration
For all existing installations using TELETASK integration with SoundTouch devices, this change has an important consequence: From now on, TELETASK control is limited to basic functions such as:
Volume control
Switching devices on or off
Because core cloud-based functions from Bose are no longer available, the integration has effectively lost its practical value for end users.
Recommended solution: TELETASK CHORUS 260
To ensure a future-proof and fully functional audio experience, we recommend replacing SoundTouch devices with the TELETASK CHORUS 260 (TDS14260) + two passive speakers.
Unlike SoundTouch, the CHORUS 260:
Does not rely on cloud services
Ensures long-term operational stability
Offers full integration within the TELETASK ecosystem
Supports modern streaming services and flexible control options
Uses external speakers for scalable audio design
While SoundTouch systems often used built-in speakers, the CHORUS 260 provides a more flexible and professional approach to audio distribution, making it ideal for both residential and commercial installations.
Future-proof your audio installations
With the CHORUS 260, you offer your customers a reliable, modern and cost-effective alternative that is fully aligned with TELETASK’s long-term vision: stable, local control without dependency on external cloud services.
More details can be found in the CHORUS 260 introduction chapter in this May 2026 newsletter and on our website.
CHORUS 260 is available from Stock Belgium from July 1, 2026.
