### 2/5 — Problem after update

*2026-01-07*

I have problem with app after update to latest version on all my devices 2 iPhones and iPad Pro on all devices playback is impossible 3 sec then pause and again 3sen and again pause. Before upgrade everything was perfect I use this app already for several years no problem at all. I try to play on my Hegel amplifiers 390 and 400 same effect on UPnP playback no matter from local library or from Tidal with AirPlay everything is ok all Hehel amplifiers are on latest firmware. Higher file resolution bigger pauses shorter time to play. Please help how to install older version.

### 4/5 — alac 크롬캐스트 안 되네요

*2025-11-11*

mp3랑 aac는 크롬캐스트 재생이 잘 되는데 alac는 재생이 안 되네요.

### 4/5 — Vergleich mit JPLAY

*2025-08-17*

Klanglich ist JPLAY etwas natürlicher, mconnect klingt eher nüchterner - sterieler.
Aber: mconnect funktioniert sehr gut und extrem stabil, viel besser als JPLAY und mconnect ist in der lite Version kostenlos und in der werbefreien Version vergleichsweise sehr preiswert.

### 4/5 — Almost perfect

*2025-07-11*

I own a Naim SuperUniti. Although Tidal is supported, you cannot play HiRes content due to a Tidal Connect limitation. Mconnect solves all that plus I can also use Qobuz. Just browse and play. Brilliant!

Downside it cannot be viewed on an ipad in landscape.

PLEASE update the app to allow this!!!

### 3/5 — Поломали нижнюю панель

*2025-05-18*

После последнего обновления, нижняя панель уехала вверх.:)

### 4/5 — Complicated in the beginning, but works

*2025-02-10*

Thou it does connect to Lenovo EMC2s and plays to Devialets, it's hard to understand how to get it to work.

### 2/5 — Problèmes de coupure du son.

*2025-01-30*

Systématiquement des coupures en écoutant Qobuz. Cela revient rapidement ou pas. Des problèmes aussi avec le réglage du son sur l’appli. Il faut pousser d’abord à fond pour l’ouvrir.

### 4/5 — Personal Tidal mixes

*2024-11-07*

Hi Team! In the latest release Tidal not showing any track inside personalized mixes (Mixes for you). All of them just empty in MConnect. Please fix this issue.

### 3/5 — Dropbox가 작동하지 않습니다

*2024-10-18*

어느순간부터 dropbox연동이 작동하지 않습니다

### 5/5 — Easy to use program, plays FLAC to my Pi4

*2024-08-03*

I was looking for a controller on iOS that allows me to stream FLAC files to my Pi 4 renderer, and I’m delighted that this software works and is pretty simple to use and understand, recommended to use for this purpose, please try it.

### 5/5 — 持续闪退

*2024-07-15*

之前时不时闪退，试了各种方法，发现可能跟wifi有关。用交换机接出或在主路由上另外输出一个路由，居然就不再闪退了，用一段时间再看！

### 4/5 — Fast gut

*2024-07-10*

Toller Player mit zwei Problemen die leider nervig sind. Zum einen merkt sich der Player nicht welches Lied man sich zuletzt angehört hat und muss daher jedes Mal neu zur Playlist navigieren und zum anderen geht der Bildschirm nicht aus wenn ich das Handy über Klinke an mein Autoradio hängen habe. 

Vielleicht wird das ja geändert dann probiere ich den Player gerne nochmal aus.

### 3/5 — The author probably doesn’t use their own player

*2024-05-27*

This is a great player for DLNA (uPnP) sources.  I use it all the time.    There are obvious glaring problems with the app that leads me to believe the author must not use their own app regularly.  1.  No “add to queue on the playing screen (so you can’t audition a track, decide it’s good, and add to an existing queue).  2.   No playlist/queue management other than remove 3. there needs to be a randomize in the playlist/queue (destructive edit) and a randomize on playing a playlist/queue (non destructive) 4. Needs to be a manual (hold-drag) move of a track’s ordering in the playlist/queue (destructive edit of queue).  5. Optimize adding tracks to the playlist/queue.   It is a ton of taps right now and feels like a lot of friction!!!  Especially when I want to throw a lot of tracks into a playlist/queue from many different folders.  6. Bug in DLNA where after playing a long time, finishing its queue, then it is silent for over night, then I can’t tap on my “favorite” which points to a DLNA endpoint nor can I tap on the DLNA endpoint, does nothing, refreshing the browser doesn’t fix it, I have to kill the app and then they all work again.  7.  The play screen is functional, but it could better highlight the album art larger, move the progress to bottom instead of covering the art… 8.  The queue section could allow you to browse all playlists and the current temporary queue in a unified way, then I wouldn’t have to screw up my browsing that I began from Favorites.  

Fix these and the app will be killer.

### 5/5 — Perfect-ReadyShare from Netgear >> Sonos

*2024-05-27*

I had the free version of this from years ago when I was streaming music from my  Raspberry Pi to Chomecast pucks. 
I picked up a Sonos Era 100 the other day and wanted to stream music that’s shared from my router to the Sonos. This app works perfectly. I’ll buy the paid version as this developer has been keeping the app updated for years.

### 5/5 — Oh my gosh! OPPO 105D streamer works again!!!

*2024-05-10*

I am so happy right now. This program was free and it works in tandem with the OPPO 105D NET streamer. It would no longer work with Tidal because of their new verification for sign in. OPPO suggested this program and it works 100%. I am using it with both my iPad and my iPhone. I open the OPPO app first and then go to the point where I select Tidal and then exit then open this program and it accepts my credentials for Tidal then I select 24 bit 192 kHz and Walla I have amazing music once again. Don’t forget to update your OPPO in the set up menu to the current bios. It is so easy and only takes one minute. Then Tidal will show up as an option.  I was so happy with this program I decided to support the company by buying the paid version though ultimately, you don’t need to do this. I hope you do too because this breathed new life into my device when I thought I was going to have to buy a new dedicated streamer. The OPPO’s McIntosh DAC is still state of the art at 24 bit 192 kHz as far as I am concerned. I just finished listening for three hours directly hooked up to two Golden Tube SE 40 tube amplifiers in mono directly to my Martin Logan Requests. This is the most simple and direct route for the music with no preamp and I am so pleased with the sound. Anyone who says you can’t hear the difference between 16 bit 44 kHz FLC and 24 bit 192 kHz simply doesn’t have a system that can utilize all of that information. The one above does and there is such a difference between tracks. Being able to look down and see the bit rate only confirms what my ears are telling me most of the time. If you have equipment capable of replicating all of the data and transparent speakers, then you will notice the difference immediately. Good luck on your audiophile journey and you don’t have to spend a lot to find nirvana. The newest isn’t always better and I am going to keep my OPPO around for as long as I can. Cheers!

### 1/5 — Tidal issues

*2026-04-09*

Been using for a while to stream Tidal, suddenly it’s stopped working.

### 1/5 — 打不开专辑内容

*2026-04-09*

最近发现可以登陆tidal，但打不开专辑内容，点开专辑后显示空白

### 1/5 — Account verification

*2024-08-27*

You have to verify your account with a credit card. 
Even though the small print says they won’t charge you, I NEVER trust a company that asks this and says that you can cancel before 1st payment is taken. 
This is a money grabber and smells like a scam. 
It’s bad behaviour on their part. An account does not need verifying with a credit card and the monthly charge is astronomical if you pay for it.

### 1/5 — Datée et ergonomie à revoir

*2024-06-19*

Cette application ne coûte que 7€ mais c’est déjà trop tant elle n’est pas bonne.
Manque d’ergonomie, de fluidité et d’historique. 

Si vous fermez l’application par inadvertance, vous devez vous reconnecter à votre Tidal, Qobuz… et re sélectionner votre streamer. Mais ce n’est pas tout. Vos playlists apparaissent mais le morceau que vous veniez de découvrir ou qui était en écoute est supprimé. 

Pas d’historique en 2024? Impossible.
Sa fluidité est mauvaise. 

La concurrence est plus chère mais ça revient à 1€ par mois. Combien coûte un streamer et tout le reste ?

### 1/5 — Тормозит музыка по DLNA

*2024-02-27*

При стриме на Hegel музыка в CD качестве работает, а в более высоком качестве тормозит ужасно!
Интернет позволяет!
Исправьте!

### 1/5 — Plus rien ne  fonctionne

*2024-02-24*

L’avant dernière mise à jour avait apparemment corrigé lee problème récurrent des interruptions interminables. C’était sans penser que la dernière mise à jour réduirait cette application à néant. Plus possible d’envoyer ma musique sur mon lecteur streaming. Les développeurs ont donc réalisé un nouveau miracle.
C’est insupportable! Je comprends pourquoi Atoll à intégré les plateformes de streaming dans ses lecteurs réseaux ça évite les intermédiaires incompétents.

### 1/5 — Не работает

*2023-12-22*

Видит в сети Cabasse Rialto, работает управление громкости и даже работает кнопка стоп. Но вот воспроизводить музыку через Qobuz не хочет. Локальный сервер при этом работает

### 1/5 — Disappointing

*2023-09-06*

Will not cast to Chromecast Audio on iPhone or iPad with latest IOS. Also now no option to select several MP3 files together and place in a folder to play in the same order. Disappointing.

### 1/5 — Ad caner

*2023-06-04, version 3.3.85*

Advrertising cancer

### 1/5 — Aucun intérêt

*2023-05-18*

Passer votre chemin ! 
Utilisée sur un enceinte Naim Muso, cette appli plante quasi systématiquement, ne répond pas ou avec plusieurs secondes de retard, il est même arrivé que le son, de manière quasi instantanée, monte au max sans aucune intervention.
Par ailleurs, l’interface est anti « friendly », l’indexation des albums, morceaux est une vraie catastrophe, sans oublier que vous ne pourrez pas exploiter non plus Apple Music, Amazon etc.
Sachant qu’aucune autre offre ne permet d’exploiter Qobuz en upnp via iOS…résultat j’utilise un DAC externe pour envoyer un signal de qualité à l’enceinte. Très loin du sans fil et du upnp.

### 5/5 — Tip Top

*2025-09-07*

Ich streame mit der App per DLNA von meinem NAS Hi-Res Flac-Dateien (24Bit/192khz) zu meiner Stereoanlage und ich muss sagen das funktioniert absolut tadellos! Die Bedienung ist intuitiv und die Player Oberfläche sieht gut aus, Cover sind am Start. Was will man mehr?!

### 5/5 — Perfect!

*2025-08-24*

Have been struggling with BubbleUPnP and found this app by chance. does everything i was looking for and more!

### 5/5 — AkrateDSでTudalのハイレゾ音源が再生できる

*2025-06-10*

Linn appではFLAC 24bit 192kHz音源が48kHzにコンバートされて再生されるが、このapp は192kHzで再生できる。

*2025-02-01*

Tut was es soll. UI und UX könnte moderner und intuitiver sein ;)
