User Reviews

Users appreciate the app's reliable, stable, and user-friendly control over Linn DS and other UPnP devices, citing good navigation, playlist handling, and continuous updates. However, multiple reviews note persistent issues with Tidal integration, incomplete or missing radio station artwork, and some stability problems including crashes and battery drain. Overall, it is favored over native apps but still has areas needing improvement such as Internet Radio functionality and background performance.

Pros

Reliable and stable performance as a controller for Linn DS and other UPnP audio streamers.
User-friendly interface with easy navigation and pleasant usage experience.
Consistent updates and good handling of music libraries and playlists.
Better than native or alternative apps for controlling Linn media players.
Supports features like remote volume control, album art caching, and timer to shut the system off.

Cons

Issues with Tidal integration resulting in connection timeouts during login.
Radio station artwork or Internet Radio functionality is not always displayed or is blank.
Crashes reported on some devices after updates.
Excessive battery consumption when running in the background on certain phones.
Occasional difficulty in seeing UPnP servers and loss of purchased version data when changing phones.

Recent reviews

After latest update radio station artwork (script) is not always displayed any more. A setback. Use it to control upmdcli on my sbc music player (running DietPi Debian). Works great!
