iPhone buttons volume control still missing

The latest updates (6/4/2026) that removed the ability to use the iPhone volume buttons, has not been updated or added back. That was a useful feature. An explanation of that in each update would help, but none that I saw.

Setup

MusicCastSetup network broadcast or bandwidth is lame at best. All of Pandora features are not available even though user has a paid subscription. Need to fix this and signal strength for setup of WiFi devices
