Smart Control personalizes Sennheiser audio from the phone. Sound Check hearing tests, custom EQ curves, ANC transparency levels, touch controls, and firmware state live in the app per paired device. Headphones keep the running config.
That makes the account the migration with re-pairing as the errand. Exact behaviors may vary by version. Take Sound Check in silence; background noise skews results. Adaptive ANC adjusts automatically. Sidetone tunes own voice. Tile finding rings buds. Wear sensors pause smartly.
