What a shame. ### 1/5 — Can’t find my demon avr or add manually *2025-03-14, version 3.1.8* This app can’t find my denon or let me add manually via up address. The other denon app and the heos app can find the denon. Spotify can find my denon. In there version it worked. Denon cannot do software. ### 1/5 — Denon Remote App for AVRs prior to 2014 model year crashes on launch beginning with iOS 18. *2025-02-19, version 3.1.8* Highly disappointed. Useless now. The included remote with my AVR omits a great deal of functionality only available via the app. No, I will not be buying another Denon AVR. I expect my audio gear to last a lifetime. ### 1/5 — When it works…. *2025-02-06, version 3.1.8* Generally the Denon Remote App works good, controls everything I need it to. It just doesn’t work properly when streaming internet radio, Pandora or Spotify through the Network source input when Denon’s network fails to connect (continual issue) then it goes to death. Why? Because after that the app disables the back button in the top left corner so I can’t scroll back to control screen to make another source selection. Instead it remains at the “demo” and “select buttons” screen. Done. I don’t use Wi-Fi, it’s hardwired to the Internet through ethernet and nails every network connection test, so not sure if it’s a Denon or app issue but when their network access connection fails, the Denon Remote App doesn’t work as advertised and is temporarily useless if you are a serious music streamer. ### 1/5 — Useless *2025-01-29, version 3.1.8* Useless, never worked, never detected device. ### 1/5 — Crashes every time *2024-12-16, version 3.1.8* A big company such as Denon couldn't figure out how to have a stable app. Shame on them. We spend $2k for a receiver and receive no support. ### 1/5 — Terrible *2024-11-28, version 3.1.8* Been trying to use this for years. It seldomly works ### 1/5 — Total Garbage *2024-11-02, version 3.1.8* This app and receiver has been junk since I purchased it years ago. I highly suggest you do not buy a Denon if you want controllability or usability without constant frustrations. I think I’m switching to Sonos. I wish I could give it negative 5 stars. ## Frequently asked questions about Denon Remote App ### What does the Denon Remote App do?
