Skips through the queue rapidly

Works fine until your phone switches networks, or from WIFi to 5g and vice versa. Then, it will rapidly rip through your playlist without playing anything. Just song titles fleeting by. You then have to force quit the app or logout / in to your NAS. Like other Synology apps, it leaves me wanting.

Need Update

It has been over two years and there’s no update for the app and with the latest DSM version it is now breaking for units that are behind proxy or tunneling for security.

Be cautious upgrading to DSM 7.3 because the audio station app updates to 7.2.0.x and if you are either tunneling through Cloudflare or reverse proxy it will not let you authenticate and it will throw an error saying you’re unauthorized or your DSM version is 4.0 or below

Needs a huge update

Simple design, great to use

This is such a good app, i really like the design. At a time when design seems to be going backwards this keeps to simple user friendly design principles. The only things I'd like is to choose my own covers and shuffle all otherwise perfect.
