Difficult

It is so freaking difficult to choose between sources. I can’t even play from my iPhone to my stereo. This whole thing sucks.

Not user friendly

After using this software for about a year and a half in our pool house in our Landscape speakers, I have to say that it’s very frustrating to try and use this program. It’s very hard to find the volume control or get back to certain parts of the program. Every time I use it I have to try and figure out stuff for about 10 or 15 minutes and it’s very frustrating.. You folks should spend some time having somebody go through this and try to use it. That’s not very familiar with it and see how difficult it is to figure things out.. Then you should revamp it and make it much more user-friendly.
