I deleted the app as being useless after 10 mins of playing with it when I first got my headphones.
I use(d) the app to install firmware updates into the Bose QC35 headphones. And to select which Bluetooth source I wanted to connect to.

I have not used the Bose Connect app to control actual playback, but the app does have something in that regard. Something about 'start the playback elsewhere, then the iOS Bose app can intervene'. Never actually tried it though.

Since the Bose QuietComfort 35 headphones are Also sold by Apple I suppose this (potential) privacy question may become clearer once either Bose or Apple say something.
