Safety overview
Status: Mostly safe
This is a legitimate companion app for Bang & Olufsen products. Access to Bluetooth, the local network, and nearby devices is normal for discovering and controlling speakers, headphones, and other supported hardware. If you use account features, the app may also handle contact information and usage or diagnostic data. Keep it installed if you actively use Bang & Olufsen devices, and review its permissions in macOS Settings if you only want limited device access.
Recommendation: Keep Bang & Olufsen if you use compatible Bang & Olufsen hardware for setup, updates, remote control, or sound customization. If you no longer use those devices, you can remove the app without affecting macOS itself, though you may lose convenient access to product settings and update prompts.
