Crashes

When I press ‘Start search’ the app crashes and closes.

Useful - but with limitations

Definitely a useful addition to a matrix based AV set-up. The switching seems seamless so far, and is very responsive. Obviously control over source devices (Sky HD) would be a very desirable feature, but I am aware that this may not be as straightforward as we'd like it to be!
One failing in this app though is the room & device naming. In a medium-large sized property, there could be 10+ iOS devices on the network - yet every device running the app must manually input the source device & room names when installing the app?? I'd have thought that once they were named, the data would transfer to any new device on the network using the app thereafter?
Furthermore, it has now been observed that a reset of an unmanaged switch this device will generally be connected to results in the app looking for the original IP address and being inoperative until the whole thing is renamed and set up from scratch again. On EVERY DEVICE! This is pretty annoying to say the least. Please address HDA?!
I'm sure future releases will address this and more. The company appear to be fairly pro-active.

Good clean app but still missing a couple of options

This is a very simple app to setup and use and a very good addition to what is a very good and reliable product. We understand that this is only version 1 of the app but as previously mentioned, it will be good if the room and input names were sent/saved on the device as supposed to the app itself. Also, the option for the selection of 'All' rooms is really required. With the two additions above, it will get a 5 star rating. However it's a good start. Keep the good and hard work up 👍🏻
