User Reviews

Users praise the app for wireless, cable-free control, a large effects library, and easy patch import via iCloud, and many report reliable performance when set up correctly. Recurrent drawbacks include lack of landscape rotation, connectivity/setup friction, and limited USB/remote control options. Some also note feature/update delays or audio-out issues in YouTube/MP3 usage. Overall, it’s powerful for compatible setups, but usability and connectivity remain the most common complaints.
Pros
  • Wireless control and cable-free operation via the app, with sound/tones adjustable from the phone
  • Access to a large bank of Boss effects through the app (around 60 onboard effects)
  • Patch management via iCloud import of Katana patches for easy transfer and consistent tones
  • Ability to stream backing tracks from the phone to the Katana GO amp for practice or gigs
  • Generally reliable and effective for many users when set up correctly
Cons
  • Landscape/orientation support is lacking; the app does not rotate in landscape on iPad or iPhone
  • Connectivity/setup can be finicky or difficult, with reports of needing exact setup steps or being unable to connect
  • Limited USB/remote control options for Katana models (no USB option for Katana Artist Mk2 and lacking Bluetooth/remote control capabilities)

Would not recommend getting this product or app not easy to set up and have to do setup multiple times just to get it to work and you have to do it all over again every time you wana use it needs serious work

The only thing holding it back for me is the UI (user interface) it needs more graphics (buttons, knobs, switches). Just showing numbers isn’t enough specially for new guitarists. This app acts as if everyone knows what all these settings are. Other than that this is a great app to go along with the Boss Katana Go.

The app is absolutely fantastic. You can literally stream backing tracks from your phone to the amp!!! If you know how to use a phone, you can get around the app. All I will say: sounds slightly less better than fenders Mustang headphone amp.
