User Reviews

User reviews repeatedly cite iOS 26 compatibility issues: Ampero Control often won’t connect on iPhone/iPad after updates, effectively bricking the device. Bluetooth pairing can fail or report abnormal errors, with little or no workaround. There is no Mac/Windows desktop editor, leaving only the problematic mobile app for configuration. Support and updates are slow or non-existent, with many reviewers noting no response from developers for months. The sole positive note is MIDI programming capability when the app works. Overall, main frustrations are OS compatibility, connectivity, and lack of desktop tools.
Pros
  • MIDI programming capabilities when the app functions
  • Device can be detected by the app for pairing (when it works)
Cons
  • iOS 26 compatibility breaks connectivity, effectively bricking the device
  • Bluetooth pairing failures or abnormal errors after updates
  • No Mac/Windows desktop editor available; only mobile app for configuration
  • Slow or no developer updates and poor support
  • Lack of disclosure that iOS updates can render the device unusable

Hotone has not released an update to fix this issue so I had to get rid of the device. Absolutely ridiculous.

iOS 26 has been out for quite a while, no updates makes this controller a useless brick. And now this controller is money down the drain.
