App needs major update

The app needs a lot of work. It does not allow you to rename the presets the ones they give you are so wrong. You cannot. Move the order of your presets. The app really needs to be updated. Don’t mind plus and elite are totally different. They should have some similarity.

Why no support?

If you’re still making a selling this radio, why on earth is there no decent support app for it???

Buy cheap android

This app, which is what I need to control my radios, no longer works with most of my Apple devices. I got around this by buying a cheap android phone on eBay and it is now my remote for the radio. It works about 98% of the time which is astonishing for this really bad app run by a very negligent company.

No longer supported

Pretty useless at this stage. No support anymore from vendor, so mostly incompatible with their radios now

Needs updating for iOS 17 and iPhone 15s

Love the app but after upgrading my phone the buttons at the top are blocked by the dynamic dock and can’t be clicked on. An update would be great.

Doesn’t work

Doesn’t do a thing

All but useless with a 15 pro

Almost all the controls overlap with the dynamic island, the only way to back out of a menu is to force-quit and relaunch… Even a 12 pro is challenging. It’s difficult to see why this app has not been updated in recent years!

Was good then it just fell apart

This app was good, doing everything you needed to do with the exception of adding presets (which someone already commented about). Sometime around the global lockdown or the latest ver. if iOS, it just feel as part! The thing I miss the most is being able to put the radio info standby, or return to the Home Screen quickly instead of hitting the back button; things you could do in the earlier ver. of the app.. The volume slider is too low on the screen and will bring you to the app switcher almost every time. I with the developers would update this to squash these and the other ugs that have developed in the app. On the other hand, the fact that it runs at all, and especially since Grace seems to be sucking wind, is amazing in itself.

Volume issues

Volumn control has issues. Volumn becomes the loudest setting without touching the app, phone, remote, or radio. Apparently there’s an issue with Chromecast which I absolutely hate and now can’t delete.

Useless volume control, rest clumsy to use

Developers: please tweak the volume interface

It is TOO close to < (play/pause) > controls, and to bottom of screen. And whatever needs doing so phone doesn’t think I’m swiping the whole screen right/left. It’s impossible to move volume slider. Because screen either swipes or play controls are activated instead.

Rest of software feels clumsy but usable. I am neutral about exactly how to redesign it, but indeed feels like much room for improvement.

Does not find device

Works sporadically. I bought a new Grace Link and this app worked once and has since been unable to find the device. When it worked (once) its functionality was minimal. You could not set Presets or Favorites from within the app, only on the radio itself. The legacy app for the legacy Grace radios was much better. Disappointed.

iOS version not working

This used to be quite functional, duplicating what the Mondo+ can do, but lately, when I try open the app, the screen flashes, and I get back to the Home Screen. Pretty frustrating. There appears to be a glitch. Hope it gets repaired soon.

The app is darn good

I don’t understand the low ratings. I had the Pre-legacy Mondo, and the app there was terrible. To rate this app like that app is absurd. I’m happy with what it does. The app helps make using the Mondo Elite a pleasure. There are 100 presets and bluetooth, so there’s a lot the app has to accomplish. It doesn’t do everything perfectly, but it’s quite useful. And it’s working with, and makes even better, a really top-notch radio. The only nit so far is that the sleep button only gives me ten minutes, and I cannot increase the time before the radio shuts down. But that’s in large part, the radio’s shortcoming (a glitch perhaps in my software/hardware) that the app does not solve. I’m hoping a future update of radio or app might address this.

Horrendous

This app is terrible. Constantly crashes and the previous model Is light years better. Only 10 presets, as previous reviewer said it crashes when adjusting alarm volume, and many other dysfunctional issues. Would never buy another product from this manufacturer. No stars

Whoever designs this should be replaced.

How this company survives is beyond me. The radio, the remote, the app and instructions appear to be designed and written by nerds who have never shown the devices or the manual to anyone who’s not a nerd. Everything is nearly impossible for their mother or for me to figure out and make work. My suggestion; next time you make it write something show it to your mother and don’t release it until she can make it work.

Amazing radio! Clunky app.

I absolutely love my Grace Digital Mondo+ radios - we have several, in various rooms - and I wish the app were as wonderful as the hardware is. Things are better than they used to be, but it’s still not super intuitive and could use a UI overhaul.

The old app for the older radios was much better

Open the app and tap the radio and it turns it on. Touch the white power circle and it turns off. Touch preset and it shows your presets and touch a preset and it plays it.

What it does NOT do is allow you to write a new preset or overwrite a preset. You must do that directly on the radio. The old app let you do that.

But you can set up to 100 presets on the radio and they will show up on the app.

No devices found!

It very happily tells me that it can’t find any devices 80% of the time. 2 stars because it works good the remaining 20% of the time.

Doesn’t really do anything

I downloaded the app and got it to connect with my radio. The problem is it doesn’t seem to do anything. I try to select a station to listen to through the radio or to add to a preset bit it doesn’t do anything other than showing a spinning icon. Too bad. It seemed like a good idea.

App update broke IHeart and the order of my station presets

The latest update broke the connection with IHeart Radio. Plus, the 10 station presets no longer appear in the correct order inside the app, though they still work using the supplied physical remote device or by pressing the buttons on the radio itself.

Same issues are also on an Android version of this app since this most recent update.
