Brilliant App
Just does the job well, no glitches
Doesn’t anybody play albums anymore?
It would be perfect, except it takes 53 clicks to queue an album. Navigate to the queue, click clear, click OK, browse to the album, click on add, click on queue, click on select all, click on done, click on ok, go back to the player, click on play.
Would it be that hard to have a “Play now” on an album like a sane music player?

Works beautifully
I have an iFi Zen Stream and use Qobuz as my source for streaming music. Unfortunately Qobuz doesn’t work directly with iFi so the only way to make it work is through mconnect. Frankly I expected a nightmare trying to get this to work, but everything went surprisingly well. Rather than mess with mconnect Lite I decided to spend the six bucks for the HD version as I listen to hi-res music and figured the HD version would probably help avoid other headaches versus using the free version. Long story short, I downloaded the app, signed into Qobuz, and to my surprise everything just popped up ready to go. It took me a few minutes to figure out the menu/search options, but once I was acclimated everything was there — all my playlists, favorites, etc. so I was off and running. And the best part — it sounds AWESOME. I’m beyond happy with this app, and I don’t get to say that about many apps. I don’t know what past problems have been and maybe issues have since been fixed, but my recommendation would be to spring for the HD version as my experience has been very positive — really the best 6 bucks I’ve ever spent. Thank you mconnect!!!

For Tekkies only
No instructions, no glossary, not for Newbies like me.
No, they haven’t ‘fixed bugs’.
As of 1st May 2022, this is still a very buggy app! I’m astonished there’s evidently no actual testing if this app being done, otherwise surely they’d have fixed the bugs by now. Used to use Mconnecthd on my ipad, send music from Qobuz to a raspberry pi, then onto a Benchmark DAC3, and upnp. Since the previous ‘update’ I now get regular disconnects and freezes. It’s infuriating. Rarely does a whole album play now. Does anybody know of a more reliable alternative to use? I’m through with this app now. Life’s too short!

Seriously flawed user interface.
This is a technically impressive tweakers delight, and an annoying experience for anybody who is more interested in playing music than in seeing what sample rate they’re streaming in. The number a selections you have to make to just play an album without playing one track is idiotic. To find the album (search is hidden fir who knows what reason) then hit play on the whole thing then switch to queue to be able to bounce around without it just playing one track is INSANE UI. Maybe spend a little more time listening to music than you do analyzing it or impressing your friends with your sample rate. C’mom Qobuz, get a connect feature going so I can ditch this bizarre app. These interface issues are in so many comments… why not address them???

I have to pay for FEWER features?
The free version of mControlHD provides cloud access to Deezer, vTuner, and Spotify. The paid version of mConnectHD does not, apparently. I have to pay for this version to be able to play to my Rendu device, but I don’t have half the cloud features of the free version, which can’t see my Rendu. Tell me how this makes sense.

Works well
Does a great job connecting my iPad and Chord Poly/Mojo to stream hifi audio from Tidal
Works very well
I use it to play from a QNAP NAS to a Cyrus Three. The Cyrus App is absolutely useless, so this App is definitely a must have for me.
It’s unstable
Sometimes it will list the UPnP devices on the network, most of the time it does not, which makes the controller pretty much useless.
The two applications should be unified, iPhone and iPad, learn to code UI/UX the right way. Landscape and portrait mode have been available since iOS 3.
For the rare case it works, it does what it’s supposed to do.
But if it was just up to me, you’d be booted off the store for publishing unstable apps.
All your apps exhibit the same behaviour… the iPhone ones too.
