User Reviews

User reviews show the WIDI App can be a solid wireless MIDI solution when updates go smoothly, offering quick, easy setup on some iOS devices and the ability to pass clock across multiple keyboards and modules. However, firmware updates are the dominant pain point, with multiple reports of updates failing, bricking devices, or only working on certain devices (iPad vs iPhone) or OS versions. The app is described as glitchy and unstable, with a convoluted update flow and Bluetooth/iOS cache issues. Improvements in certain versions help some users, but reliability remains inconsistent.
Pros
  • Wireless MIDI interface that can pass clock between multiple devices.
  • Firmware updates can be easy and effective on some iOS device/version combinations.
  • Quick and easy setup on compatible devices (e.g., iPhone with Keystep; iPhone 11 setup).
  • Works with WIDI Master and other WIDI jacks when update and connection are stable.
  • Some app versions (e.g., 1.5.2) are reported as stable for firmware updates.
Cons
  • Firmware updates can fail, brick devices, and show inconsistent results across iPhone vs iPad.
  • The app is glitchy and unreliable, with performance issues that disrupt workflow.
  • The update flow is convoluted, with multiple links/options and unclear steps.
  • Bluetooth/iOS cache problems requiring workarounds (forgetting devices, resetting Bluetooth) to update.
  • App stability issues such as the 'Download Group' option causing the app to disappear.

i hate that I ever bought the cme widi uhost. has been a brick since i purchased and keep going back to app to see if there is a chance they have solved their problems bur no. an app that sends you to a link to an app to update firmware on the app to then go to link to get firmware to then go to app an on and on and on. on pc it is the same madness sending us to an appp to get firmwarw that is not there.

Man Oh MAN!!!!Well I’m CLOCKING NOW!!! It took a little bit of Trial and error. But once I was fluent in Standard “MIDI”. Specifically Applying The tools in practice. Then, and only then was I able to incorporate the CME “WIDI” Tools and make my world a lot less congested!!! LOL. THANK YOU CME For my Dope setup!!

Great wireless midi interface device. App works as expected so far. No issues updating the firmware, or getting connected.
