### 1/5 — iPadOS 14.3 update broke this app

*2021-01-01*

I used this app extensively on my DTX502 modules. (I have 2.)
Since the 14.3 upgrade, the app now dies as soon as it tries to make a midi connection with either of my modules. Prior to the 14.3 update I would have rated this as FIVE stars.

Can’t downgrade my iPad, so I’m having to use an old iPhone for this app now. Which is a PITA. So one star now. Yamaha, Please fix this app.

### 1/5 — Please update!!!!

*2020-12-24*

With the latest iOS the app crashes every time I open it!!!!

### 1/5 — App is terrible

*2020-12-19*

Don’t know how to connect it can’t find a manual👎👎

### 1/5 — App crashes

*2020-12-13*

Please update the App.  It crashes immediately since the last iOS update in November.  The app is critical to using the module, because the module interface itself is difficult to navigate.  FIX THE APP!!!!!!!!!!!!

### 2/5 — App crashes upon connection

*2020-12-11*

iPhone X and iPhone 7, the app crashes as soon as I connect to DTX502.  Latest version as of Dec 2020.

### 1/5 — Can’t login to DTX502Touch account through app

*2020-12-11*

What is the story with this app?  Sign in wheel spinning/loading forever, no result.  Is there an update we’re missing?  Do I need to contact Yamaha support directly😑. Cmon guys, got all the connectors and finally have some time

### 1/5 — App crashing

*2020-11-18*

Try to use 502 Touch but app crashes before updating firmware. iOS 14.2.  All other related apps work fine but this one.  Now there is no way to update module firmware except through an app that keeps crashing.

### 1/5 — Update the app!

*2020-11-18*

Unable to use this app with the latest update for IPhone. Please fix I’ve always used this for my dtx set.

### 1/5 — App crash

*2020-11-15*

Since the apple 14.2 update I can’t go on the app every time I open it crashes please fix!

### 3/5 — Website won’t let me log in

*2020-06-23, version 2.3.2*

Everything is cool....except for the website part. I have ONLY been able to 1) make an account and 2) get approved for a password, but every time I click on login....NOTHING. It just reloads the “login” screen over and over and brings me back to the “welcome to DTXdrums!” page. This app sure had a lot of promise...so far I’ve not been satisfied with the website portion of this. PLEASE fix it!
