2026-04-30 J1***** Doesn’t fix any connection issues with BluOS app. It’s just a GUI built on top of BluOS. You’ll still need BluOS to scan library etc. This is only for people who hate the OEM app interface for whatever reason. Seems unnecessary to me.

2026-03-05 Na***** I very much appreciate what you’ve done…the BluOs Controller app for Mac is really clunky. The two features I’m hoping you’ll implement are (1) playing music from usb, and (2) playing radio stations that aren’t part of a music service. There’s no way to add these to favorites that I’ve been able to find, as they don’t have a login. If there’s a way to do these things, please enlighten me! That would make it 5 stars. Thanks.

2026-02-14 ma***** Just downloaded. This is excellent addition for app music control. Slim, clear and fast. The lock screen widgets alone are worth $4 imo. Low friction, love it.

2025-01-23 re***** I like the BluRemote for the ability to create widgets on my Mac. The only thing I’d love is if the Now Playing widget had sound up and down. Currently, I have to use two widgets to accomplish this which isn’t a deal breaker, but could be better.

2024-10-22 ja***** Bought for the customizable widget - disappointed that it isn’t ready for prime time. The “customizable” part is basically being able to hide things like the player name, shuffle, etc. But no option to actually show the song being played. The BluOS Controller works better as a widget. The one thing that is nice is access to the pre-set stations in widget form. The player itself is a bit clunky looking, 90% of the surface of it is your pre-set radio stations. If the player widget is improved to show what is playing and the actual app is setup a bit better (and the volume control improved so it doesn’t jump in volume so quickly) it could be worth the price…

2024-10-07 MO***** This app has minimal function. It allows to select a player, store some favorites and adjust the volume. That is it. No ability to select a radio station or music source. This app does not serve any purpose next to BluOS 4.

2024-09-11 Ji***** This app is a breath of fresh air for anyone who has suffered through Bluesound’s bloated and cumbersome-to-use BluOS controller app. Its clean and straightforward interface is perfect for putting the focus back on Bluesound’s excellent sounding components and away from the needless fumbling of the BluOS app. You’ll still need the BluOS app for setting up certain things such as Presets, which I use for streaming music from a SSD and the individual component volume controls are not quite as convenient to use. It’s close but still needs some refinement since speakers have to be selected individually for volume control unlike the BluOS app, where you can adjust the volume for any networked device from one list. All in all, this is an excellent choice if you want to spend more time listening to music than scrolling through an over-engineered app.
