The joke is the app does nothing, other than upgrade the firmware of the headphones. No settings to change or alter the behavior of buttons, initial volume, etc. Nada. Nothing.

Er. The app allows to you adjust the "aggressiveness" of the noise cancellation or turn it off completely.

It enables a second, lower level, noise cancellation mode, that works well in windy environments.
