  • Great

    Works faultlessly for me with N15D on firmware R1782
  • Pretty Shabby

    Given the expense of the X14 unit, one would think that it would at least have a reasonable app. This app doesn’t:

    1 connect well
    2 have an intuitive interface
    3 allow for random play
    4 allow for easy labels and cover art for albums and artists
    5 generally limited and clumsy

    There are great app designers working for countless companies that could design this app in their sleep

    It’s shameful how bad this app is given the simplicity it requires. Two stars may be one too many.

  • A Bed Full of Bugs

    This app is awful and Novatron has done nothing to address it's inability to reliably connect to the streamer. I am currently using MConnect as a workaround.
  • Streaming

    I am delighted with the app and the UI and speed are excellent.

    The only problem is that it works only with my cocktail audio x40. I wish I could stream from the app to other upnp players in my home.

    To do that I have to switch to mconnect app and use my x40 as a server.

    Please allow streaming/casting/Airplay from the app so we can use the beautiful UI.

  • A huge mess

    Buggy. Buggy, Buggy. A shoddy mess.
    Too many bugs to even attempt to list.
    I can’t say whether the problem is the app
    or the Denon firmware, but either way this
    setup is an embarrassment to the Denon
    brand name. I will never again buy Denon
    hardware that requires software support.
  • This app is horrible

    All the previous reviews are right on. It works when it wants to especially on the iPad. For the amount I paid for the Cocktail X45 I would expect better. The X 45 has numerous glitches also. I’m sorry I bought it. I have been putting up with problems and difficulties in use since day one.The sound is great when it works, but between this app and the X45 it is a totally frustrating experience.

  • One star is too many

    I don't know what happened between the time reviewers said this app was an improvement and now, but this is an unmitigated disaster. The iPad and iPhone apps do not recognize my Cocktail Audio X45, and thus do not work at all.

    The MacBook version does work, to the point that I've almost figured out how to use it. The abandoned web interface was so much better, requiring two clicks to accomplish what now the app takes six to do.

    The MacBook app, however, takes an unexpected nosedive at least 3-4 times an hour (if not more often). No matter how many times I've sent a report to Apple each time it crashes, no improvements seem to be on the horizon.

    I love my Cocktail Audio X45 streamer/server, and I loved the web interface I'd used for years. But this ham-handed app greatly diminishes the value of Novatron's audio products, and I wish their app designers would realize that.

  • Garbage

    Does not login 90% of the time. Have to login in to tidal every time. Once you get it to work. Love it.
  • Inconsistent

    Keeps losing file,track album,artist after a few minutes. Will sometimes or usually plays one or two songs in a selected album. Very inconsistent,slow on cocktail audio device.
  • Software unreliable

    I have multiple network servers with IOS apps. Music X Neo is the worst by a considerable margin. Often it cannot recognise my Cocktail Audio server. It is a shame as my N15D is a nice device when I can get it to work. I will never purchase another Cocktail Audio piece of equipment. Changing the brand name in the UK has not fixed their horrible software interface.
