How does the Bose Connect app turn on a speaker when it’s not turned on?

Hello,

 

I’m just wondering how the Bose Connect app is able to turn on Bose portable Bluetooth speakers without them even being on or plugged in? How is this possible? Are they just constantly in a low-power standby mode? It can’t be like a TV with infrared...

 

I’m so curious and so impressed!!!! Best feeling to just be in my bed and turn on the speaker to play something! Before I discovered the app, I would just play music from my phone because I was too tired/lazy to get up and turn the speaker on!

 

So coooool!
