★★★★★ Thomas Robinson · Mar 27, 2021

Hey.... It works. If you like simple, with no email sign up and all that stuff. If you comparing it to something made in 2020 or something it won't stand up, but it does what it's supposed to which is stream music remotely.

★★★★☆ Dude · Jun 28, 2020

Works good for my sony hap s1. Having a remote for my outside speakers is great. Changes volume too. / and keeps away lizards.😎

★★★★★ Scott Weinberg · Jan 17, 2018

Works perfectly across multiple devices. Those of you who can't make it work: the problem is with your network discovery rules. Not with the app or the player. Debug your network user rights. But hey Sony: no app updates in a year?

★★★★☆ 4leggedfurball · May 5, 2024

Good. Have run this app for 8 years now. Wi-Fi connection was terrible in first releases, after a few updates is a lot better. Sometimes device drops off the network for unknown reasons, but comes back on again. Spofity was a nice update feature, however Spotify support needs a firmware update, as song/album artwork from Spotify suddenly stopped coming through a couple of months ago. Now it just displays the Spotify symbol on the screen.

Sony needs to give the Android version of this app some love! Seriously, on my Android phone all the icons are in some sort of super zoom mode-one can select tunes, or change just about any state with this app. The ios version of this app is great, so I don't understand why Don't have snubbed Android. I spent $1000 for my Sony HD Audio amplifier, which requires the use of an app for all the features-the little remote that comes with the HFA amplifier can only turn on/off the amplifier- and next/b

Runs but will not connect to player on Nexus 6 & Pixel C both running Android N This app had improved a LOT over the past two years, but now it doesn't even connect to my HAP-Z1ES on Android 7.0 Nougat. So this app will open but is essentially useless on my Nexus 6 & Pixel C without connecting to the player. I verified that it still works just fine on my Nexus 4 running Ice Cream Sandwich though. Please Sony, Android N has been out for almost a year for testing your app.

The apps can only open in landscape mode on my S21ultra. Weird. Please fix it.
