Marginal app

Remote will allow mw to play only one song at a time and, strangely, will not show me what is playing. If I start a playlist from the computer, Remote will show me what is coming up but still will not shiw me what is playing.

Unstable

Used to be great, more recently loses track of what’s playing when you change audio targets, very frustrating

Basic

Why, remote? Why doth thou ask me every single time I use you, which music library I want to use? Don’t you know me by now? Of course, not you haven’t been updated in years.

Change libraries

Allow access to apple music

iTunes remote

J aimerais qu’il puisse reproduire l interface d ITunes car cela me permet de l utiliser comme une sorte de télécommande pour piloter mon Mac mini !

Did Apple forgot about this app

This is such a useful feature for the ecosystem. People don’t use it because they don’t even know it exists out there. Apple bring back this gem.

I EXPECT MORE FROM APPLE

Better than nothing, but that’s not what I think when I buy an Apple product. Come on Tim and team. Get us a REAL iTunes Remote app.

Doesn’t work properly

Wanted to type but don’t work, then the Home Screen just flashes for no reason

What happened? Apple neglect

This app used to be great, a lovely way to control iTunes remotely is my iPhone or iPad. Yet, it has not been updated in recent memory. (2020) Now the add to what’s next feature doesn’t work, and it only plays songs, not albums. What happened? Why has Apple neglected this very useful app? It is way past time for Apple Music remote!

Please update Remote

I have been using Remote for more than 15 years and it is an integral part of my music life and the music life of hundreds of friends and Neighbor’s who walk by my house or visit my home and enjoy all the Apple Music that my wife has purchased over the last 20+ years. I have 7 airport devices that are connected to a single Apple Mac Mini. Since moving from “iTunes” to “Music” I have found that a lot of features of Remote no longer work. I appreciate that it still works at all, but I wish that a new version was developed that would not just be backwards compatible but actually bring awesome new features for the people who have invested a lot of money purchasing music through Apple and from independent artists and have maintained it all on their Apple computers :-)

No radio

Such a basic thing, and it’s simply not possible to switch to a radio station on the remote

Playlist editing sux too!

便利〜

超便利

Playlist Bugs

Songs are played only one at a time

Remote

DO NOT forget this app when you release new iOS!

awesome

Works well. I just wish we had a few more ways to sort the songs like through the “years” would be a nice addition. Or “album artist” in its own tab.

Also if we could long press on a song to add quickly to a playlist that would help.

Broken with Apple Music Streaming

Now playing now shows blank.

Still my favourite app

I use this app everyday to play music from my iMac, works nicely though no updates on 6 years! Please don’t get rid of it Apple

Stream My Music

I’ve ripped all of my CDs, and neighbors’ as well, onto a an external drive attached to my Mac Mini M2 at lossless quality. I use this app to stream music from the computer to a Bluesound node attached to my stereo amp. I can also access the music files through my two AppleTV devices. I have access to my music pretty much though out my house.

Queue functionality no longer working after recent software updates

You can play individual songs/albums/playlists 1 at a time from your media library but it won’t let you manually add things to your queue anymore. Extremely frustrating, please fix this!!!

Won’t play an album

Click play on an album and it will only play the first song not even able to click next track
