### 3/5 — Works well with other devices

*2021-03-10, version 2.8.9403*

I agree with the last reviewer. I did find it was good linking my Vast dlna devices and it synced them very well as one device but a recent update 6 months ago stopped the app finding my devices. I know it was not designed for my devices but the user side of the app was great for what i needed it for. The update was quickly reversed within 2 or 3 weeks and it now works as it did before but it now says another update is available and I'm reluctant to download it. So it is a good app but it might have changed if the update is anything like the last one.

### 2/5 — Can’t connect!

*2020-11-05, version 2.8.8828*

The latest version is broken. Can’t connect to my existing AudioCast. Please fix!!

### 2/5 — Software not working with new update done 4 days agi

*2020-05-31, version 2.8.8322*

I have been using this device/app without any problems  since one year ago, with new update 4 days ago the devices cant recognize net work and when it does after some time it goes out and ask to configure from factory settings and this continues endlessly
Please fix these bugs so we can enjoy this nice app/device again

### 1/5 — Quit working

*2020-03-04, version 2.8.7719*

New iPhone release killed it.  Can no longer connect.  No support for the product.  I think they sold to airsound.   I would avoid buying this product.  If you did, try an older Apple device (pre iOS 13).   It used to work great.

### 1/5 — App crashes during setup

*2020-02-27, version 2.8.7719*

When trying to set up the device with the app on my iPhone, it exits after fifteen seconds, every time, before I can finish the setup. Am returning the product.

### 1/5 — Poor poor poor

*2020-02-01, version 2.8.7719*

apple stopped making airport express so I found these devices on amazon wasted my money on 4 ... the got the  “app”  followed the set up and now I can’t get thru 1 song without it cutting off in all the rooms but the “main” piece of equipment... whole thing is trash and a waste of money

### 3/5 — Need app Update to work better with IOS

*2019-12-23, version 2.8.7521*

Worked fine till last 13 .3  load.. fades in
And out on my 5 different  cast .
  Please fix as I Love AudioCast  and how it feel my house with  non stop music..!
  Thanks In Advance

### 1/5 — Needs update to work w iOS 13

*2019-11-09, version 2.8.7521*

Please.  Trust us, it used to work but doesn’t anymore.  I can get it to work on an old iPhone but not on any updated phones.

### 1/5 — Trouble connecting to device on ios13

*2019-10-24, version 2.8.7521*

Having trouble connecting using ios13. Has this really been fixed??

### 1/5 — worked more or less ok for several months, now stopped working

*2019-10-23, version 2.8.6715*

I bought two AudioCast devices a few months ago. They were never brilliantly reliable but they worked ok most of the time and it was nice to be able to play the same music in two different rooms. Since updating my OS to iOS 13, I can no longer pair with the devices. I’ve tried rebooting phone, unplugging the devices, reinstalling the app, all to no avail. I followed the link to app support, and was taken to a website that doesn’t mention AudioCast, and has a link to ‘support’ that is broken. As things stand, I’ve spent £60-odd on two devices that are effectively useless after a few months.

### 2/5 — So close but then it stopped

*2019-10-19, version 2.8.6715*

First, I got a new iPhone and now this doesn’t work.  I emailed the company and no one responded. 

Second, though it went through WiFi when I first got it, it would stop when a call came though. 

If the application would work as intended as a pure WiFi signal and they would stay up on updates and respond to customer’s who need support, I’d be a lot happier about this app.

### 1/5 — Needs update

*2019-10-16, version 2.8.6715*

Stuck on searching for device and will not connect to wi fi severely outdated

### 1/5 — Needs OS update. Do not use!

*2019-10-16, version 2.8.6715*

No longer works with iOS 13. Stays stuck on searching for device. Please update this app!

### 1/5 — Need new software update

*2019-10-02, version 2.8.6715*

Worked awesome until all of Apples update.  Please fix!

### 4/5 — Great app, but

*2019-09-05, version 2.8.6715*

I really like this app. Works as expected, but I really wish they would add an app URI to their code for the app so I can add it as an app shortcut to my home automation app. If they add that I would make it 5 stars

### 1/5 — HORRENDOUS COMPANY

*2021-06-09, version 2.8.9403*

Unit and/or App is complete garbage. A newly purchased unit lost ALL functionality well within the warranty period. I tried the app’s feedback, email, Facebook - ALL means - and was COMPLETELY ignored. Finally, months later, I asked the retailer for help. They sent a replacement which NEVER worked. Not one single day. I could not update firmware. The retailer put me in touch with a rep who gave me troubleshooting tips and not one of them made any difference. This was a complete waste of money. I would strongly suggest people spend $ elsewhere. Company takes no accountability and does not care one bit that their product/tech is not functional.

### 1/5 — Pandora is not working

*2021-02-20, version 2.8.8919*

Same comment as many people on here.  Pandora is no longer working. Please update and fix this issue.

### 1/5 — Pandora

*2021-02-13, version 2.8.8919*

No longer able to play Pandora. Asking me to update firmware. No response from developer.

### 1/5 — Update is crap

*2020-12-03, version 2.8.8919*

Update ruined the app. Won’t play music off iPhone playlist except for the first couple songs. Awful.

### 1/5 — Cannot connect

*2020-11-25, version 2.8.8919*

The new version will not connect to my existing AudioCast devices.

### 1/5 — Broken

*2020-11-05, version 2.8.8828*

Last update introduced a spying feature (why would you like to know my location?!) and dropped all devices that were already configured. 
How can I downgrade?

### 1/5 — Super buggy, almost unusable

*2020-10-24, version 2.8.8322*

I use Pandora. It doesn't switch between stations, period. It just hangs. It's basically unusable in it's current version.

### 1/5 — Looking For An Update Or An Alternative!

*2020-07-08, version 2.8.8322*

This used to be an amazing app that did all the things it says it does. Now, it’s deeply flawed and doesn’t deliver on its mission.

### 1/5 — Cannot connect device as instructed

*2020-05-19, version 2.8.7719*

I purchased an AudioCast but cannot get the software to connect with my network on an iPhone 7 running iOS 13.4.1. I am experienced with doing such things, so I’m guessing the app is having the issue. If an update is needed, I hope the developer is working on it otherwise the thing is useless.

### 1/5 — No longer works

*2020-03-13, version 2.8.7719*

Not had a problem with this app or the device until today.
When trying to reset and add the device to a network, the app closes after it has found the WiFi network.
Device and app now appear to be useless.

### 5/5 — works excellently

*2021-04-29, version 2.8.9403*

sound quality is excellent

### 5/5 — works for what i needed it for

*2019-01-11, version 2.8.6104*

was super easy to setup. setup via app worked like a charm on my iphone 8plus. didn’t fidget with the app much, but works well as an Airplay to stream music via any page/app in my workplace.

### 5/5 — Good app

*2017-08-12, version 2.8.4222*

I like this app. The problem is that it doesn't has a version for iPhone 4

### 5/5 — Game changer!!!

*2017-08-12, version 2.8.4222*

Perfect app! Perfect equipment!

### 5/5 — thousand dollars saved

*2017-06-11, version 2.8.4222*

I've been looking for an affordable device like the AudioCast for a long time. I love that I can play Spotify over anything with a 3.5mm jack in the house. I have a puck upstairs in the hall way, connected to a little boombox, one next to the entertainment center in the tv room, and one in the garage. It's like I have a full home surround system for less than $300. To get the and effect with a Sonos or AirPlay it would be easily over a thousand dollars.

### 5/5 — Wow and wow again

*2017-04-22, version 2.8.4222*

Bought two of the audiocast devices to test this out, and downloaded this app. Wow. This was easy. The Audiocasts are tiny and comes with a 3.5mm audiocable and micro USB. And this app just connects it trivially, wifi setup is so easy and pairing speakers into multi room just a drag and drop operation. So easy it brought literally chills down my spine. Amazing tech. Sonos but at 1/10 of the price!

### 4/5 — Great device, too many makes app glitch

*2021-02-26, version 2.8.8919*

I have 7 zones and sometimes the app starts freezing or even crashing when trying to adjust volume for one zone. Otherwise great system and I love it. Please try and fix. Wifi is at 90% and above for all units

### 4/5 — Amazon Music?

*2020-08-23*

Please add Amazon Music to services.

### 4/5 — iOS 13.1.3  does not appear to be supported on current version

*2019-10-18*

iOS 13.1.3  does not appear to be supported on current version. 

Worked fine till new updates.  Says “your device (device name) doesnt enable wifi connection”

iEastplay app does the same.

Uninstalled and reinstalled , still not working.

### 4/5 — App is not working on ios13

*2019-10-10, version 2.8.6715*

This app has never given me a problem in the 2 years I’ve had it. But when I updated to ios13, the app says I’m not on a wifi connection and doesn’t go passed that page. 
I can still airplay to it natively, but I won’t be able to do the advanced stuff like pairing multiple audiocast’s. 
Please update your app to work with the new iOS and you will go back to the 5 star review that I believe you deserve. 
P.S. app works fine in older iOS builds.
