Doesn’t work with clarett+
I tried several times - it says my interface isn’t compatible with the app. It works on a computer app, but not on my phone. According to info my interface (Clarett+) is compatible. But it’s not. Confusing.
App does NOT support 3rd Gen devices - despite its manual
Do NOT update your focusrite desktop app if you’d like to use the focusrite iOS app with a 3rd gen device - it will not work - even though focusrite documents that it would.
Don’t let them fool you, wait until they’ve fixed this. Totally unacceptable that focusrite issues faulty documentation and encourages 3rd generation owners to update.

QR SCAN NEVER WORKS
Tried everything on the planet and could NEVER get the app to connect for control. Ridiculous
Useless
For basic stereo control, it’s fine. But for multi-channel audio, (MCA) it’s useless. Problem 1: The app can’t be oriented horizontally. That’s totally unacceptable. For those of us working in MCA, we need quick visualization reference of our channels. Horizontal allows more real estate. Problem 2: The monitoring tab of the app still only gives you one knob. You get these options for control: a master knob, mute, dim, main and alt. The alt mix still only gives you a single master knob. No virtual control for each channel. Why? Seriously…why? Why engineer and manufacture an interface capable of MCA and develop such a lackluster virtual controller? How does this make any sense? When I compare this to Audient’s ORIA MCA controller app, I can’t help but wonder what went wrong. I don’t want to go to my mix tab to “control” my channels since I’m not mixing. I want to “control”. I do my mixes ITB and with real control surfaces. I use Icon’s Pro G2 and two EX G2’s. If the interface itself had output control, that would be fine. In-fact, I’d prefer that over an app. But, no such control on the unit. So, no output channel control on the unit and no output controls in the app. Why not a simple 5.1 and 7.1 template with 6 or 8 corresponding buttons? Is Focusrite telling us in 2026 that they can’t virtualize SPL’s SMC? Adding these features to the app would really give Focusrite a massive, hard to refuse edge as incentiveware over MOTU and other competitors. Especially UA. Hey Focusrite, it would be in yours and the users best interest to make this happen in a matter of a few hours or two days tops. I’m not asking for physical buttons on the interface. That requires a whole new device with R&D, schematics, new costs, etc. No! Just asking for a decent virtual controller to…you know, match what your hardware can already do! 😒So here is all that’s needed in the monitoring section: These are simple virtual buttons btw:
-Mute all
-dim
-Mono LS/RS
-Mono L/R
-Stereo mix
-Surround mix
-L
-C
-R
-LS
-RS
-LFE
-giant knob
Hope to see this happen. Hope to see such an awesome unit get the control it deserves.

This is a 5 star app, except for…
Connects every time: 5 stars (it connects thought your router/wifi and your MacOS network, if you are having trouble it’s you, not them)
This app means you can get away without a separate analogue mixer, control headphone mixies, monitor direct inputs, and set mic levels from across the room (like when behind my drum set)
Between this and Logic Remote, I’m living in the future)
But please, and you’ve heard this is a common request, and couldn’t be that hart to add to the next update (development pipeline be dammed):
Remember the last mix we had selected when we last open the app!!! Seriously 😤
Naming mixes would be nice as well

Trying to find app for focusrite 3rd gen 2i2
Please help
Mies
Gute Hardware, katastrophaler Support. Da das Scarlett 4i4 (3rd Gen) kaum physische Knöpfe hat, ist man für Grundfunktionen (Air, Pad, Routing) komplett auf die App angewiesen.
Dass Focusrite die iPad-App einfach löscht und die neue Version 2 exklusiv für die 4. Generation reserviert, ist eine bodenlose Frechheit. Wer sein Interface mobil nutzen will, steht nun vor verschlossenen Türen. Ein Gerät ohne Knöpfe zu bauen und dann den Software-Support einzustellen, ist geplante Obsoleszenz pur.

Will not connect to desktop app
I love my scarlet solo 4th gen, but the connection process between the iPhone and the Desktop apps are nearly impossible to get working. I hope for a fix here soon!

Demo
The demo does not work. I select a unit to demo and cannot get a demo to start. I want to evaluate before purchasing
4th gen 2i2 showing not supported
I bought my interface thinking it is supported as it is latest version, but tried iPhone, iPad, both showing not supported.
Very useful
I think this is a great app. No trouble connecting. I think people only leave reviews for these things when they don’t work, but for me this is very useful as a solo producer.
and only over wifi not usb even on Gen4
and very very sadly 🤷🏼♂️it does not work at all over usb🤩like it should be normal not even the gen4 why is it not possible 🤣🤦
Użyteczna aplikacja
Aplikacja działa dobrze i jest bardzo użyteczna
Doesnt work for me
Im using compatible devices but on Monterey 12.7.6 and IOS 18.6.2 won’t pair via bluetooth. Thank You.
Only for Gen4 devices
Sadly this only works with Gen 4 devices. Gen 3 cannot be controlled even if this is stated on the packaging ☹️
Assurdo!
Non riesco più a controllare la mia scheda del mio iPad.
Updated Due to Developer's Quick Response
UPDATE 5
Oh boy, I really did it this time, and good!
So the app isn't connecting to my phone because there's a VPN in my phone. It's in there, doing silly little things, and one of the things it's doing is not allowing me to connect to this app. My review is back up to FIVE GOLDEN STARS. I gave the one star review to the VPN because it's being very nasty and hurtful to me. Apologies all around!
As I write this, I am staring longingly at my 18i20. It is my friend.
=D
--------------------------
UPDATE 4
Now it won't connect at all, so we're back to one star. I re-installed it on both my Algorithmic Computing Machines™️, both the semi-mobile and mobile computing units, and it just won't connect for anything, by Jove. Is it angry or cross with me?
My 18i20 is still great. To my 18i20 I say, "Sorry I had to give your remote algorithm a bad review, old pal."
I still like Sandwiches®️, though.
=D
--------------------------
UPDATE 3
Nothing new to report, just checking in to see how everyone is doing. I'm doing fine. I had a nice sandwich for lunch, might go out to a Mexican restaurant with the family tonight.
Cheers!
=D
--------------------------
UPDATE 2
Focusrite Control 2 seems to be connecting now. Maybe there was an update. Maybe it's Maybelline!
Anyhoo, revised this to 5 stars because it is my friend.
=D
--------------------------
UPDATE 1
My review below is superseded by this one. The developer responded quickly, so that warrants an addition of stars. Unfortunately, I still spend more time connecting than controlling.
However, I'm happy with my new interface. My 1st Gen 18i6 served me well for over a decade, and now my 4th Gen 18i20 is my very special friend. It sounds great and has bouncy lights.
BOING BOING BOING BOING

--------------------------
OLD REVIEW, ISSUE SOMEWHAT FIXED
It has to reconnect every 2-3 minutes, and that's if you're successful in connecting in the first place.
In a given hour, I spend 55 minutes trying to connect, 5 minutes with an actual connection.
It also crashes often, more than I did in my high school drivers' ed class. That makes me sad and hurt with myself bigly and yuge.
Awful! Terrible! Boo hiss!
But the Scarlett 18i20 is great. It is my friend
