App needs help!!
After spending over $20,000 on a grand piano, this app should be more user friendly and should actually work! I up graded my Iphone to the new iOS 16 this week and the Enspire app has not worked since. Connecting to the piano rarely works, I cannot use the record function or see the built in song play list. I’ve been in another room and the piano will start playing all on its own with no interaction from me using the app. The app then seems to freeze. The only way to stop the piano from playing is to turn off the power. Yes, I have restarted my phone and the disklavir Enspire control unit many times to see if it fixes the above issues with no change. Very disappointed!

Too long to turn on.
The controller takes too long to turn on, and after it is on, it quickly deactivates and then once again takes too long to activate once again. When placed on sleep mode, it quickly deactivates a few minutes later once again!
Do not buy this piano
This app rarely functions.
Works great!!
The apps works well and is reliable as long as you have the internet connection to the piano set up correctly. I was having a couple minor connection issues after delivery and spoke with the local dealer where I purchased the piano and they were able to assist me in getting everything set up as it should be. If you are having trouble connecting to the piano, talk to your local dealer where you purchased the piano!!
The app functions well and works as advertised for playback and recording.
A note for Yamaha: better compatibility with other apps would take the experience to the next level! For example, you should be able to save your recorded songs right to the files app for easy sharing.

A waste of money and time
Over billed as a great accessory, this system is a real disappointment. On line music selection is pathetic, as is the wireless connectivity and utility. My expectation that this major player in the music industry had developed a tool that would enhance my ability to expand my piano experience has proven to be sadly misplaced. Customer support is non existent, and sadly 99% of the “music library” is comprised of a hodgepodge of c grade selections that nobody with ant appreciation of good music would listen to. This would have been a bad experience if it had been given to me, let alone the $ 2500 I shelled out for it. This crap is almost worthy os a class action.

Needs improvement
Half of the time it does not even connect and after it does it has a hard time playing the music I selected.
Stopped working - won’t recognize piano
We bought a Yamaha grand piano in 2020 and while the enspire app was clunky and would only occasionally connect, now it doesn’t connect at all. We are using Google WiFi wired directly to the piano and the app won’t recognize the piano on the same network. Is there a fix?
New Enspire controller app is so much better than older apps
Update Mar 2021 - iOS 14.x broke the Enspire app for many Apple devices. Yamaha updated it this week and it’s working great again. Could us a LOT of improvements, but it does make controlling the Piano pretty easy.
OLD
Not sure why there are so many negative reviews on this app. Some seem to be about the DKRadio subscription and not this application. Any of us who have owned older Disklavier Pianos (prior the the Enspire model) will truly appreciate how awesome this app is. You can get to almost every aspect/control over the piano. Plus it’s pretty intuitive, runs on any device that supports newer HTML functions, and is pleasant to view.
Wishlist= 1. more access to maintenance functions/tests/settings.
2. Better support for the Remote Lesson functions that allow 2 Disklavier Enspire pianos to communicate with each other over the net.
3. Dark theme/night mode options.
4. Wallpaper options (so we can picture our actual piano).
Overall, this is an ok upgrade to the Disklavier interface and deserves more praise.
Happy Listening.

App functions perfectly.
I use this app every day. It works perfectly and if yours is not working correctly you probably need to ask for help.
Absolute crap
Does not work 90% of the time.
