### 2/5 — It crashes all the time in remote mode

*2013-07-14*

Is a great tool but Please fix!

### 3/5 — Works well, when it works

*2013-02-17*

I would give this 5 stars if the app didn't crash as much as it does on my iPad. 
It works fine on my iPod, but I have issues when I control my iPod with my iPad.
The first time I launch the app after I download it, it works great and i can control my iPod for hours. However, if I close the app from the task bar and reopen it, as soon as my iPad connects to my iPod, the app crashes every time.
Also, it crashes without fail whenever I attempt to change the theme on both my iPad and iPod.
So when it works, it works very well, but it crashes a LOT.

### 2/5 — IBrr not ready for prime time

*2012-08-21*

Took several attempts to get my new iPhone to work with my old iPad but I finally got the hang of it. The WiFi connection works every time but the Bluetooth connection only allowed me to pair once and was unstable. My iPad must be to old for the Bluetooth connection to work as stated in the description. 

The library function attempts to load but always gets hung up. Limited usefulness without a solid library function. 

I can't get the skin color to change on either device.  My iPhone is a newer 4S. 

Why can't you make the Bluetooth work on all vintage products?  As it stands I will not be using the iBrr app very often.

### 2/5 — Mediocre at best

*2012-06-05*

When i got this app, i was looking for something to allow me to use my iPhone to remotely control my iPod, which sits on a dock. It does this--barely. Here are my issues with it:
1) the layout. It's ugly to look at, the prized "personalization" does not work, and the controls/options are not sensibly arranged at all
2) the functionality. Sure, after lots of fiddling, dealing with crashes and difficult-to-find settings, my devices paired. Even then though, all i can do is play/pause and go to prev/next. The cheap IR remote that came woth the dock can do more than that! To pick a song specifically, i have to go to the iPod and play it in the music app, then return to the iBrr app. Also, upon skipping a song, the controller side takes a long time to update and show what song it's playing, sometimes even showing a completely random song instead!
So overall, i'll use it now and then when i have a good playlist i just want to play and skip through. It isn't even worth .99 though, and the only reason to get it is if you absolutely need that functionality since no other app offers it

### 2/5 — Bit bogus

*2012-05-19*

Does what is says. Sort of. If you try and access your music library the app will crash so it is just a shuffle system. Also, album artwork doesn't change when you go to next song. Feel a bit ripped off actually

### 3/5 — СЫРОВАТО ЕЩЁ

*2012-05-04*

Глючит сильно при сопряжении Айфонов. Произвольно перелистывает песни. А идея очень даже интересная!

### 2/5 — Needs song list.

*2012-02-12*

App crashes and on my iPhone 3G it won't update to the new version without me having to but it again. What a rip off. Allow me to update to the new version for free plus the app crashes all the time when I try to change the them. Also allow us to pull up out library so we don't have to keep skipping until I find the right song, very very annoying and pointless to use without playing what I want.

### 2/5 — Moyen

*2012-01-15*

Correspond à ce que je cherchais mais certaines ( quasiment) toutes les autres fonctionnalités ne fonctionnent pas .... Dommage

### 1/5 — Crash

*2011-12-22*

Any time I click on anything in settings it crashes plz fix!! Very annoying being stuck on blue

### 1/5 — 5 bucks lol

*2011-12-20*

Ok I've waisted five bucks on this app now fix it it would be worth .99 if it worked in lock screen

### 1/5 — Headphones?

*2011-11-06*

Doesn't work for Bluetooth headphones, can I have a refund please

### 1/5 — Severely limited

*2011-10-27*

I found this app when looking for something to turn my iPad into a Bluetooth receiver. As the name implies, and as the description implies, this app can do just that. What it doesn't make clear is the fact that it ONLY WORKS IF BOTH DEVICES ARE IOS DEVICES! I set iBrr to treat my iPad as a receiver, and linked my iPad to my other device (Motorola Bionic) via bluetooth, but the iBrr receiver did not recognize any incoming signal.

If I'm wrong, and their truly is a way to link non-iOS devices, then they've made it difficult to do or find, as the menus and help guides are about as limited as this app's functionality. As I don't have any other iOS devices, I've essentially donated 5 bucks to Techno Gurus and got no value out of it. Kinda wish I could get my money back.

### 3/5 — View Library

*2011-03-20*

It would be much better If you could go into the library and choose a song. Because It's a bit ennoying just going to the next song. It's a bit like I pod shuffle. But It still is a very good app for bluetooth remote.

It's Worth Getting.

It would be beater if these features were in the app.

### 3/5 — Useful but still under developed.

*2011-01-06*

With over 3000 songs on my ipod ,
I am limited to shuffling between tracks..
Would love to have more control,like browsing songs on the second ipod or at least selecting a playlist..

### 1/5 — Une arnaque... Remboursez !!!

*2012-09-18*

Impossible de lire la musique sur mon appareil Bluetooth... Car il ne reconnaît que les appareils Apple.
De plus l'appli ne cesse de planter !!!

### 1/5 — Lame

*2012-09-07*

It doesn't even do what it says in the description.  That was half a gallon of gas spent on this app.. NO stars earned.   Just use your music player AS-IS.

### 1/5 — Uneffective

*2012-07-16*

Difficult to connect

This app is the worst app ever!!!!... is no good for nothing.... don't wast your money buying this crap.... I want my money back.

*2012-01-25*

App states Bluetooth output. Only available to another iOS device with this app. Not audio output as it says.

*2012-06-30*

this is great for driving and listening to music, love it..thanks

### 5/5 — Highly recommended.

*2012-03-09*

Get it!

Minor bugs (doesn't affect core functionality) with ios5 but developers up front about it. I'm sure they'll be fixed soon.

### 5/5 — I don't have to update my IPhone to 4.3.5 to keep enjoying this wonderful App.

*2011-12-14*

This is unfair and I'm gonna delete it.

### 5/5 — Wow

*2011-10-25*

I have a docked itouch 4th gen 33 gig inside my fusion radio. Ibrr let's me control my device through my iPhone seemlessly! Has the potential to be my favorite app, already the best media remote in the AppStore! Can't wait for future installments:)

### 5/5 — Great app

*2011-09-28*

Great call

### 5/5 — Must have app

*2010-07-05*

Very useful app

### 5/5 — Hamza54000

*2010-04-25*

Pas mal

### 5/5 — Great

*2010-04-12*

Great App! Wish to be able to back out of this app on the "remote" to control other apps on the other device! Say I have good play lists but want to control pandora instead of my playlists. Kinda like remoting to another PC through remote admin. 
Can it be done??

Thanks again!

### 5/5 — One of the best uses of peer-to-peer bluetooth I

*2010-01-18*

This app totally delivers.  Works very hard to establish and maintain a good connection and tells you exactly what's going on while it's doing it.  I love the over-sized buttons for play, pause, etc. as almost every app (including the built-in iPod player) has such little tiny buttons, and I have pretty big fingers.  Well worth the price as it has some features not seen in any of the competing apps, such as pausing when your phone rings, automatically connecting and especially important, a way to make sure no one else can control your music if they happen to also have a copy of the app.  Thank you, iBrr!

### 4/5 — Needs music search/small bug

*2010-07-27*

Great app I use it in my car so I can have my iPod play and control from my iTunes. Only needs to have a music swath function. Also it would be cool to have a car mode. The developer should team up with fluxtunes to make gestures available on this app and maybe make a joint app that controls both your music or an other device. Also I found a bug. Not bad but it... Well bugs me. Hen I'm controlling my iPod my iPhone (4 on ios4.0) it plays my iPod. Please fix this the volume is off but I don't want to see my artwork everytime I lock my phone or see that a song is playing. These are just a few suggestions that could make this app 
