Comments on AV CONTROLLER for Android

★★★★★ Guy DJ HypnotixX (DJHypnotixX) · Jul 31, 2024
I love this app it is way better than just trying to use the remote on its own. And works perfectly. I would hope that it is possible for the firmware of the Yamaha amplifier to be upgraded to the latest Dolby. IE: Dolby Digital Plus or Dolby TrueHD: These support up to 7.1 channels and will preserve the original channel layout.DTS-HD Master Audio: This also supports up to 7.1 channels and will accurately reproduce the original audio mix.
★★★★☆ David Holmes · Dec 18, 2025
I love the App and my receiver. The only thing that could be better is to display the Remote -> Setup/Options in the application as well as on the TV. If either have to turn my TV on, or stand in front of the unit to adjust these. Awesome overall!
★★★★★ Craig Garrison Sr · Sep 29, 2024
It seems that it's this or MusiCast... At least this is stable, always works. Not as user-friendly as MusiCast, but, unlike MusiCast, it actually works all the time...
★☆☆☆☆ Mark Clark · Aug 21, 2026
This app used to work sporadically, but now it doesn't work at all. It doesn't even find the receiver on the network, despite being in network standby mode. Even entering the IP address manually does nothing. They haven't even bothered to update this app in 4 years. Don't waste your time even installing.
★☆☆☆☆ Devin Boyle · Feb 21, 2026
Unfortunately this app no longer connects to devices and just crashes, very unfortunate Yamaha are no longer supporting older receivers that don't work with music cast
★☆☆☆☆ Paul Miller · Sep 20, 2024
Will not find receiver after latest update. App is completely useless. Even if you manually enter the ip address it doesn't work. Update: Download the Music Cast app. It works. I'm guessing this app is obsolete now.
