### 4/5 — Does the JOB

*2026-02-27, version 3.3.120*

The look of it is a little basic not highly polished in my opinion.But most importantly it does what my intention was to stream QOBUZ to my Panasonic bluray player because it has a high quality DAC

### 5/5 — Very Well-Implemented iOS uPNP Player

*2026-01-31*

Switched to this app from HK’s MusicLife and have been so pleased. The browser works great with MinimServer. The app switches cleanly between my multiple RPI renderers. Plus I get Pause/Resume, device-level volume control, and gapless playback! My thanks to the developer for this fine implementation of a uPNP/DLNA control point app.

### 2/5 — Works but not worth it

*2026-01-16*

It was able to connect to my server (plex) and endpoint (ifi streamer) without a huge amount of config needed. But its almost impossible to use other than hitting play on a playlist. The UI is archaic and it freezes for 30 seconds whenever you make a selection. Crazy that this is a paid app in 2026, it would be mediocre if it was 2001

### 5/5 — 好

*2026-01-14*

很好的app可以支援applemusic

### 3/5 — Crashing

*2025-11-30*

Crashing after skipping a few tracks

### 3/5 — Good player but…

*2025-11-27*

Ok player that is at least better than the Arcam music life crapp. Only problem is it only plays one song and doesn’t play the next song in queue without being prompted to press the play button for EVERY song.

### 4/5 — Обновление

*2025-11-12*

После крайнего обновления не работает. Ios26.

### 5/5 — 다 좋습니다만 추가기능 요청이 있습니다

*2025-11-08*

mconnect player HD가 오디오를 플레이백하고 있을때 동일 네트워크의 다른 디바이스의 mconnect player에서 플레이중인 mconnect player HD를 원격제어 할수 있는 기능이 있으면 좋겠습니다. 플레이중인 정보도 보고 플레이도 하지만 실제로 동작은 mconnect player HD가 되는 거지요

### 2/5 — Application avec trop de bugs

*2025-10-22*

Application qui paraît bien au début mais beaucoup trop de bugs dans la détection des appareils sur le réseau. J’utilise HEOS en parallèle qui fonctionne mieux au final. Dommage car cette application était plus intuitive mais les bugs sont pénibles.

### 4/5 — Доработайте

*2025-10-18*

Пожалуйста, добавьте воспроизведение формата aiff . И понимать файл cue.
