My QC35IIs have a button on the side to adjust noise cancelling. No need for an app.

The app lets you set the levels the button cycles through, and also set an auto off timer and some other odds and ends.
All features that couldn't be reasonably configured without an app
I think you need the app to switch that to noise cancellation level from digital assistant activation.
I think it's the other way around - I'm reasonably sure it defaults to noise cancellation, and digital assistant is an option. I may also be wrong.
the bose 700 has 3 buttons

one for on/off, hold to pair, hold long to reset bluetooth

one for noise cancellation

one for assistant

in addition it has the transport controls / battery response touch controls on the right earcup

I was referring to the parent's QC35II's which has an app configurable button for voice assistant OR noise cancellation adjustments.

The newer Bose 700's do have all that you have listed.
