Needs work

Works great when it's working. Won't connect most of the time. Needs an leave iPhone, or iPad, to remain on feature. If the remote player goes off, the app is useless.

Perfect for what I need

I use Band in a Box as a practice tool. BB Remote allows me to select and play BiaB tunes at the piano without needing to constantly get up and attend to the computer. Plus, I can watch the chord changes on my iPhone as I play. Perfect!
