Must try harder, Musical Fidelity
This app is, frankly, a disappointment. It is clunky, and looks like something developed not long after the release of Windows 95. I’m using Tidal within the app - Musical Fidelity was initially going to develop Tidal Connect functionality so we could play high-resolution tracks from within the superb Tidal app - but they have since dropped the idea and we are stuck with an old-fashioned, graphics-lite MX-Stream app. It requires several clicks on my iPad Pro to select albums and play tracks, and the user experience really is pretty average. Spotify Connect is available, but since it is three years and counting that we’ve been waiting for a premium hi-fi subscription tier for that platform, users who buy the MX-Stream as a hi-fi source have to make do with Tidal within this app. This is a shame, because the MX-Stream itself is a seriously good piece of kit: if you already own a decent DAC, this is pure streaming at an incredible bang-for-buck. But it is let down by a truly average MX-Stream app.
