Tidal Connect Please

Please give us the option for tidal connect. Love my rose but really don’t like the app. We spent a lot of money on these devices, give us the options we need to be happy.

Complete trash

Seriously worst device and app integration ever.

RS150B End user from Canada

This apps doesn’t work well with Qobuz recently at all! It requests logging in (to Qobuz) over & over & over sometimes logging in 3,4 times within 2 minutes! Drove me crazy & made me feel embarrassed in front of my friends they wanted to see how good of my RS150B!!!!

New issues since updates

Having these new issues with a slow app, and automatically being logged out of quboz. Very annoying.

Necessary app but unreliable

It’s essential for use with HiFi Rose products unless you use Room. However it’s very unreliable especially if you use Qobuz and the developer uses customers for beta and user acceptance testing in a production environment.
Shame on you HiFi Rose

Poorly Designed

Very difficult to navigate and questionable functionality with no Tidal Connect that could help make things more useable. Very bad!

Worst App in Industry

The RS150B is a real work of art, and it works extremely well. If this had the same app as the Eversolo DMP-A6 it would justify the fairly high price tag.

Instead, the app is total garbage. It’s in broken English, which at this point is unforgivable. Apple Music is mostly in Korean language in any playlist, and it seems to default to Korean music no matter what the settings are when looking for new music. Tidal isn’t as bad, but it’s not great. Any music you add when discovering has to go to a Rose playlist, so you can’t add to or edit existing playlists.

So, it’s good if you are using it as a Roon endpoint, but there are a lot of other options that have a better value prop for that.

Apple Music is only truly usable via Airplay, which again, there are a LOT of other options.

My guess is that they locked themselves into an OLD heavily customized version of Android and are unable to fix the situation.

Great interface but buggy

Superb piece of equipment but it’s more and more buggy. Finds the music immediately but is prone to crash within a few minutes of playback. Had this nearly a year now.

I spent $5,000 on a HiFi Rose RE 150 just to have an awful experience.

I feel like the only things the HiFi Rose products have going for them are looks. Their app is mediocre! Not enough time/effort/dedication put into this app.. which is ridiculous considering I paid 5 grand on one of their products. Needless to say this is the first and last product I’m buying from them. DO US ALL A FAVOR AND HIRE SOMEONE THAT KNOWS WHAT THEY ARE DOING TO WORK ON THE USER INTERFACE!!!

Crashes

The app crashes constantly on my iPhone 14 pro IOS 16.4. My dealer does not have an answer and Apple care was no help. The Rose 250a audio is wonderful when it worked. But if the software problem is not corrected fast I am taking it back.
