## What is myAVR?

Download myAVR and experience AVR control that looks as good as your AVR sounds.

Inspired by the front of your receiver, myAVR combines thoughtfully spaced controls with a physical-style volume knob for a high-end, cinematic feel. Whether you're settling in for movie night or enjoying your favorite music, it feels like a dedicated control panel built for your home theater.

Compatible with network-capable Denon and Marantz AVRs from 2014 and later.

myAVR is a third-party application and is not endorsed by or associated with Denon or Marantz. Available features vary by model and zone.

ABOUT QUICK SELECT

Quick Select is a built-in feature of Denon and Marantz AVRs that lets you save and quickly recall combinations of settings such as input, volume, and sound mode.

With myAVR, you can do more than simply recall your Quick Selects. You can maintain them directly from the main controller, making it easier to configure your favorite listening and viewing setups without switching to the Denon/Marantz app or navigating your receiver's onscreen menus.

TIPS

• For reliable network control, set your AVR's Network Control setting to “Always On.” This may increase standby power consumption.
• Your AVR must be connected to your local network using Ethernet or Wi-Fi.
• A static IP address is not required, but can provide the fastest startup. If your receiver's IP address changes, myAVR can automatically find it again.

### 5/5 — Fits my style

*2026-09-10*

I have a denon receiver. With this app I can set up the quick selects to match whichever receiver input I’ve programmed eg radio, Bluetooth, etc., on whichever zones. Consequently I can operate my denon from anywhere. Volume and inputs are very simple to operate. This app fulfills all of my needs.

This update focuses on giving you more control directly from myAVR (the app has a new name), with fewer trips to your receiver’s menus or the official Denon/Marantz app.

• Improved volume adjustment — press and hold Volume + or – for smooth, continuous changes.
• Improved reliability, connection handling.

This release adds more of the features users have asked for and lets you configure more of your AVR directly from myAVR, without needing the Denon/Marantz app or receiver menus.

### 1.9.1 — 2026-09-01

• Added multi-zone control for supported Denon and Marantz AVRs
• Improved AVR discovery and network troubleshooting
• Refined setup and onboarding screens
• Improved layout for receivers with multiple zones
• General reliability and usability improvements

### 1.8.2 — 2026-03-29

* Improved receiver discovery
* Improved sync’ing with the AVR when changes are made outside the app.
* Added Movie Mode - dim the screen to avoid distraction while watching a movie, or save battery.  Just lift or tap screen to access the control.
* Added support for dynamic IPs.  If your AVR IP changes, you can beset AVR Controller to search on each launch.
* Added link to your app store review to make it easier to make a review or update your review.

### 1.8.1 — 2026-02-16

New brushed metal background.
Fixed possible issue finding some AVRs

### 1.7 — 2026-02-04

Will now automatically reconnect to your AVR even if the IP address has changed.  It is no longer dependent on a static IP address for your AVR.  Improved the sensitivity of the 'set' buttons when changing quick select settings as they were some time difficult to touch. Updated the controller view so it will look better when text size is set to large.  Also corrected an incorrect email address on the support email link.  A few other minor fixes.
