### 3/5 — Good App.... BUT!

*2015-07-09*

I REALLY like this app but there are 2 things that frustrate me.

1. Where is the support!? I've had questions and it's so difficult to find the answers. Solution, video tutorials, or easy place to find the answers.

2. Not everybody has an iPhone or iPad. We run a concert every Saturday night and they're always having to use my iPad rather than their tablets. 

Other than those two concerns, this is a really good app. I would recommend it to anyone that is looking for versatility.

### 3/5 — Wifi

*2014-05-11, version 3.0.3*

This app is fantastic . I do lighting for a company and we use my dmx 2.0. When testing this app using the wifi at my house works great. However when using this app at a hotel it will not work using their wifi so very disappointed.

### 2/5 — USB to computer?

*2014-03-21, version 3.0.1*

In some venues where wifi is poor or non existent it would be nice for an option to plug your iPad or device knot your computer to control your program's. I am using my iPad to control mydmx2 when I'm playing in a band

### 3/5 — Connecting it by USB?

*2013-12-06*

I love this app but it should be others connection options like USB or wifi with out internet otherwise is a great app

### 3/5 — Good App, Needs Work

*2012-11-25*

This app is a really nice addition to our DMX control. It allows our operators to run Daslight away from the computer so we can test our sequences and lights on the fly.

Needs work with connectivity. Having problems with the app reading the controls accurately, making it unusable in live situations to this point. I have concern for its stability so far.

Only experience is with Daslight Virtual Controller 3.

### 1/5 — Won’t open

*2025-11-22*

They need to update

### 1/5 — Doesn't work anymore

*2024-10-11*

Home screen shows the MyDMX interface, yet when i open it up, nothing shows at all, and I have Show mode all ready to go in the main software.

### 1/5 — iPad Pro 2019, no work

*2019-08-06, version 3.8.1*

Will not load Show page, sometimes flashes up then goes.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t display properly on iPhone X

*2018-03-16*

The tool bar doesn’t display on an X, so I can’t set up my menu at all.

### 1/5 — Doesn't work anymore

*2017-10-17*

I don't know what's going on with this app but it doesn't connect anymore

### 1/5 — My DMX 2.0

*2014-04-16*

This app used to work with My DMX 2.0, now it does not. It just won't find the controller anymore. Can you please fix this.

### 1/5 — Lacks still

*2014-03-24*

Until i can just select pre-programmed scenes that weve made on the computer, this remote app lacks real use. 
I want a screen that shows a button for every each scene weve made.. Click on the button for the remote to change scenes... 
Until that works.. This is useless.

### 1/5 — App Crashes

*2013-05-07*

Unusable app at this point. It seems to pair with MyDmx 2.0 just fine. But every time I try to creat and name a button, the app crashes immediately. And if I creat a button without naming it, MyDmx won't "Learn EasyRemote Command".  I have found online where many people have complained about the crashing issue.

Also, there is absolutely not instructions. You could really use a basic layout instruction page or an online tutorial.

Please fix the crashing problem, I would really love to use this app!

### 2/5 — Works but just barely

*2022-10-28*

Everything works when it connects however it can be tricky to get it to connect and if you happen to slide the screen while trying to press a button it takes you back to the Home Screen. Needs a lot of bug fixes.

### 2/5 — Glitchy much?

*2021-01-25*

So so so glitchy, app works maybe half the time. Mostly just freezes or won’t past the connection screen. When it works it’s great but that’s if and when it works.

### 5/5 — Great App

*2015-09-27*

I really love this app. I made a mistake and  update to iOS 9.0.1 and I cannot get it to work now.

### 5/5 — Incredible app!!!

*2014-11-01*

Having obtained MY DMX 2.0 from American DJ for our light board at Davis Musical Theatre Company, replacing our 10 year old Leviton Innovator light board, I found this life saving app for my iPad to remotely control/set/adjust my lights at our theater. Thank you very very much for this wonderful app.

### 5/5 — Great DMX controller app!!!

*2014-01-02*

This app makes using MYDMX software not only fun, but much nicer for setups with one computer running lights and sound. Excellent! Bluetooth would be nice.

### 5/5 — Excellent app

*2013-08-16*

Works great with Macbook and iPad using MyDMX. Very easy to set up. I would like to see the ability to make the buttons different colors, but I love this app!

### 5/5 — It's easy!

*2013-01-12*

A great tool to get out from behind the console. Works very easy with lumidesk over wifi connection.

### 4/5 — After last iOS update...

*2018-01-21*

The app opens in unlock mode, regardless of settings.  Could also be after last app update 3weeks ATO.  This needs to be fixed.

### 4/5 — Decent app

*2016-05-01*

Decent app and it could use some updates with how to open previously saved settings and when selecting the light setting wanted it freezes and allows you to select multiple selection at once and confuses you on which one is actually depressed

### 4/5 — Easy Remote Pro's and con's

*2014-01-19, version 2.4*

Firstly let me start by saying I use this with My DMX 2 from American DJ and it is a joy to use. Simple intuitive setup, with instantaneous changing of effects across my lighting fixtures. The best of it all it's completely wireless even over a portable hotspot.

Love the fact I can keep my DJ software on screen and hide my dmx to a separate screen.

Whats it missing then?

Well firstly when saving a file there is no confirmation. Once saved, the file is difficult to overwrite as placing a capital anywhere in the file name saves a new file which, doesn't seem to be delete-able. There is no operation manual immediately apparent so there is a lot of trial and error.

The biggest issue is that the device will go to sleep after a short period of time and re logging in once again and re-opening of the app is necessary. This doesn't happen in traktor dj so why does it here?

Saying that, it is a pleasure not being tied to my laptop to activate or change lighting effects, however this is not quite a replacement for a dedicated midi controller yet.

### 3/5 — Easy Remote

*2017-07-10, version 3.7*

Very basic app with very little improvement since the last update. It does the job however it tends to leave some buttons out now and again. You then have to refresh it to try and get them, but then you loose another button or 2 instead.

### 3/5 — Needs an update!!!

*2016-02-17, version 3.6.2*

Although this app is good at what it can do I feel as if it should have some features such as magic sheets where you can select multiple fixtures at the same time. Also I am using this with MyDmx 2.0 and it's a shame that I can assign one channel to 2 faders (so I could create a master fade). I do like this app but I feel limited in what I can do and would really appreciate an update.
