I have a few Bose smartspeakers around my house, and recently I bought a couple more. I then moved a few around to different places and therefore needed to rename them, which I did using the Bose app.

4 of them are appearing on my iPhone/iPad as the correct new names, and 3 are still showing the old names. It has been a week now, and I have reset/restarted all the speakers, restarted my iOS devices, and nothing has changed.

It's really annoying as I now have 3 speakers named 'kitchen' for example and one is in my office, so it is somewhat confusing when selecting speakers.

If I was to guess, I think this is a case of iOS recognising the speakers but refusing to acknowledge or update the names somehow?

Any ideas on how to solve?
