This app works great for me. I like the control from my phone, but you need to have a Wi-Fi connection to the unit. I haven't figured out if there is zone control, but that would be even better.

I love not having to pull out the remote for my Onkyo receiver when my phone is already in my hand. Works great and has all the controls I like to access for even the smallest adjustments to my listening experience. If you own an Onkyo receiver and a smartphone....then what are you waiting for?

Still can't set up the Wi-Fi on my speaker. It won't recognize the speaker Wi-Fi nor the aux in. I had to use and old app version plus my old smartphone to make my speaker work.

Who's the moron that decided it's a good idea to call this app Controller rather than Onkyo?
★★☆☆☆Brian Bloom· Dec 27, 2025
The new volume slider is horrible. I no longer use my phone and instead get up and look for the remote now. I guess you're forcing me to move around more, which is good for me, but doing it by degrading your app is bad business.
★☆☆☆☆Abhishek Gupta· Sep 13, 2025
I would give it negative stars if I could. Never connects with the receiver. I don't understand how Onkyo can make exceptionally good receiver but cannot make a simple app that can connect to it.
