Awful
A truly awful app that makes the process of using their otherwise excellent hardware a complete pain. Why they ever thought controlling a complicated system via a web interface was a great idea I’ll never know. It desperately needs a native app rather than a web wrapper, and I hope they open up the API so someone can build something better.

Unstable, Needs an Update
I was able to connect the app to my interface but lots of functions that work on the web browser interface didn’t seem to work properly in this app. They really need to update this.
MOTU, do you care?
I’ve invested in multiple MOTU devices and watched demos showing how awesome it is to control them with an iPad. I contacted tech-support and never got any answers. This is just sad and frustrating, using a web browser to control isn’t much better. The whole reason I went with MOTU was to control the devices, mix levels, routing paths, etc.. As time goes on, I feel like I went with the wrong company, but now I’m in too deep. MOTU, please, you sell solutions, but you don’t come thru on supporting your customers.
Do I need to sell everything and start over with another manufacturer?
5 years? Forget about using a magic keyboard with this app.

Won’t find device
The iPad app works occasionally but the iPhone app doesn’t work at all. Doesn’t find my 8Pre-es.
Frequent disconnects. MacOS and IOS
With no updates to fix the connectivity problem with the UI’s, it makes me think the company might be in trouble. I thought that maybe the updates weren’t needed because the platform was rock solid. Like Apple software back in the day.
Now I am a skeptic. What a shame.

Disconnects, Never Updated
The app would be at least 4 stars if it would consistently find my MOTU 8PreES, but it typically does not find it and repeatedly disconnects. This app hasn’t been updated in 3 years!!! If you think it will be fixed, think about what 3 years of no updates means.
For the app to see my 8PreES, I have to disconnect my iPad from wifi and reconnect. Then it will typically find my interface and connect. Unfortunately it will eventually disconnect. Sometimes it will reconnect automatically after a while. Sometimes I have to disconnect my iPad from wifi and reconnect again. Sometime it will appear to be connected when it is not. Very frustrating when in need of a quick adjustment.
I use my 8PreES all day long between my real job, streaming, music work, video editing, etc. Since I use it for a lot of real time mixing, I count on the MOTU App. I hope they will update it, but I frequently wish I had bought something else because of the app issues.

Update the program, please
It does not work on my Moto M2
Horrible app, Can’t believe MOTU doesn’t improve this app.
I am a LONG time MOTU user and I’m afraid to say that this app doesn’t work well at all, I’m using an iPad PRO with OS X, it doesn’t stay connected and half the time the screen updates don’t work, checking input levels etc.
With sooooo many other companies competing for business, I can’t believe MOTU accepts the app. in the state it is in, ESPECIALLY when they offer no hardware option for mixing.
I hope they take care of this app or start from scratch.

Almost good
Doesn’t work very well on iOS, and I’ve contacted Motu several times over the years about improving it, but there is almost never any updates. There was an attempt to make improvements a year or 2 ago, and it is a bit better, but landscape mode is still basically unusable, the faders scale to a weird uncomfortable size and you can only fit a few faders on the screen. They also eliminated the personal monitor option from the iOS app so any one using the app has full access to the interface, but when I give musicians control of their own mix I don’t want them to have full access, I want them to be limited to their mix and that’s it.

Second a call for updating MOTU Control.

it does not work at all
i have a ipad pro with the newest os. it doesn’t even launch.
Doesn’t work on IPhone
Rated 1 star. Finds my interface on the network, but the app does not display in its entirety on my IPhone in portrait or landscape mode. Therefore, it’s useless for me.
Please update MOTU DP CONTROL!!!
Please update MOTU DP CONTROL!!! A great app that many DP users depend on. Thanks
GUI Frequently Crashes
This app is great for finding MOTU AVB mixers, but it’s terrible for mixing. The GUI fails to render a lot leaving you helpless if you want to use it live...
Works Great via WiFi
As long as your MOTU interface is on the same network your iDevice is logged into, you are golden. Allows your iDevice to find any interface on the network and access its functionality, including fine tuning personal monitor mixes. Access to the interface does not require that the interface be attached to a computer.

Almost poibtless
This app will find a MOTU avb device that is connected to you computer but not directly to your router....that's about all its good for. They didn't change anything from the desktop browser app, so it's totally cumbersome on an iPhone, possibly better on an iPad. You can only see one fader at a time. Since it's the same as the browser app, you're better off connecting your unit to your router and logging into it by just entering the IP address displayed on the unit. If they made I nice dedicated app, that could make these units a lot more powerful!

Badly documented
Took months to get working, seems like I was getting ignored at motu support online. But have had email problems, looking forward to actually getting to use the new feature finally. Will review once I have had a proper day with the app
Not working... No devices found
Ultralite AVB connected via network cable into Mac. Discovered by the Mac app and being used to record, but the iOS app just isn't seeing anything despite being on the same network as the Mac. Fix up MOTU
