## Review summary

Reviews praise Airfoil Satellite for strong multi-room audio and easy iOS control, with reliable long-term support and quick audio testing across devices. However, recurring concerns include sync/latency issues, lack of Windows support, iOS control quirks, disruptive updates, and occasional crashes on older hardware.

### Pros

- Long-term reliability and responsive support from Rogue Amoeba with years of updates.
- Great for quickly testing audio on multiple devices, useful for music/pro audio work.
- Persistent connections enabling a DIY multi-speaker setup (including non-music content) with consistent playback.

### Cons

- Audio often drifts out of sync between speakers and noticeable latency; may require disconnect/reconnect.
- Windows support has been removed or is not available, despite past marketing claims.
- iOS app has unreliable volume/group controls and sometimes forgets the active Airfoil.
