### 1/5 — Won’t find M33!

*2022-03-12, version 1.18*

Whet the heck?!?  Either fix this app or get rid of it.  Bluesound, your sister company, can figure this out, why not NAD?

### 1/5 — Won’t connect to 778

*2022-01-30, version 1.18*

Does not work for T778. 

Third party app does.

### 1/5 — Remote app

*2021-11-06, version 1.18*

I honestly can’t believe how poor their app is! And for such an expense bit of kit, I expected the app to at least work but it rarely does and the quality of the app build is awful. Massive let down for the smart home cinema experience

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2020-10-16, version 1.18*

Does not work-PERIOD!

### 1/5 — Abandoned?

*2020-08-21, version 1.18*

This app does not work with my NAD M17 V2i. It can see the processor on the network but when I click on it I get a Connection Error message. 

The app hasn’t been updated in a couple of years. Has NAD abandoned it? It seems so...

### 1/5 — Unreliable at least!

*2020-06-25, version 1.18*

More then once the app started turning the volume all the way up on my NAD M17. Last time it blowed one of my B&W speakers. Is NAD going to pay for it?!? I believe not. Avoid this app!!!

### 1/5 — Wo liegt hier der Mehrwert

*2020-05-10, version 1.18*

Bei der NAD M17lässt sich nur die Quelle verändern. Wenn BluOs angewählt wurde, muss die Fernbedienung her, damit man den Titel mit Play starten kann. Die Lautstärke lässt sich nicht regulieren. An und aus bekommt man die Vorstufe mit der App. Kindergarten, gleich löschen.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t Find Amp

*2020-01-22, version 1.18*

Downloaded the app. Nothing but a blank screen with “Discovery”. Can’t find my new C 338 amp.

### 1/5 — Why won’t this app discover my brand new C328 amp?

*2019-11-06, version 1.18*

Why won’t this app discover my brand new C328 amp?

### 1/5 — Constantly crashes

*2019-01-07, version 1.18*

App constantly creases.   Previously, it worked reasonably well.  Would be great to get it back to being stable.  Makes use of the my NAD M17 much easier and more enjoyable.

### 1/5 — Stopped working

*2018-08-08, version 1.18*

App seems to have stopped working on all devices.

### 1/5 — No longer works

*2018-08-05, version 1.18*

The app stopped working completely last week. No longer shows anything other than a blank screen

### 3/5 — Ok

*2017-05-23, version 1.16*

Seems to work well. However, it Does not support basic video/audio output info for the vm300.

### 3/5 — iOS app is great.  Where is the Android version??

*2017-03-22, version 1.16*

I absolute love this app for controlling my family room setup.  It would be a crime if you didn't port this to Android.  Like most houses we have a mix.  I'd be able to put the remote in a drawer forever and that would be fine by me.  How hard can it be?

### 1/5 — App doesn't discover T787 on standby...

*2016-01-16, version 1.15*

Always have to power cycle using rear switch.  What's the point?

### 1/5 — Interesting and Unimpressive

*2015-11-24, version 1.14*

The app just seems to display a blank window that says “Device Discovery” without any other menu or message. I am guessing this does not work with my iPhone or NAD unit or maybe just doesn’t work. Remarkably unimpressive.

### 1/5 — No longer works

*2026-08-19, version 1.18*

The app stopped working completely last week. No longer shows anything other than a blank screen

### 1/5 — NAD A/V Remote

*2026-01-29, version 1.18*

Yes the app is rubbish it simply doesn’t work at all you just get a frozen screen

### 1/5 — Couldn’t be worse

*2025-12-30, version 1.18*

For the quality of their products this app is the worse they could have created to support their products and brand.

### 1/5 — No discovery

*2025-11-28, version 1.18*

No discovery, amp cound not be found, old version works without problems :-(

### 1/5 — They will drop support for your device

*2025-09-14, version 1.18*

I am not sure this is ethical - they advertise devices as “smart devices” that can be controlled by this app, but support is quickly dropped for older devices. 

…additionally, NAD software is just very poor. Glitchy, almost never works, requires constant restarts. 

Back in the day when NAD made straight forward amps that were not “smart devices”, they made good stuff. Those days are done.

### 1/5 — It’s time for update !

*2025-06-17, version 1.18*

Your app is not working well, but don’t you think that is time to adapt it with Ipad and BluOS ? Your app work 3 times on 10 trial ! Is not a good score ! Is Nad is a premium brand or not ?

### 1/5 — T778

*2025-01-23, version 1.18*

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2023-05-16, version 1.18*

It just never connects to the T758. Both NAD and phone on the same wifi network, app can see the NAD is there but can’t connect. Ever. Useless. Shame because the NAD is a great amp. Use the NAD A/V instead.

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2022-11-01, version 1.18*

Just plainly bad!  My T758 V3 amp is great but this remote is poor.  Regularly daisy to connect properly.  Also not very intuitive.  It’s time NAD updated the interface.

### 5/5 — Settings

*2016-01-29, version 1.15*

Had to contact NAD support to get this working, but now that is does it’s fantastic.  I have control from anywhere I can connect to my home network.  The key was setting the baud rate high enough on my GlobalCache IP2SL device (needed for the RS-232 non networked models).   The app wouldn’t find my T758 receiver until the rate was set to 115,200.  So for anyone else having a “device discovery” issue from the app and are using a serial port to network type device, try these settings:  
Baud: 115,200
Flow:  None
Stop Bits:  1
Parity:  None
Data Bits:  8

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2015-07-16, version 1.14*

Excellente App maintenant que les quelques petits bogues ont été corrigés. Facilite beaucoup le paramétrage de mon pré-ampli. De plus, la version pour iOS 5 est de nouveau fonctionnelle.

### 5/5 — Well done

*2013-06-12, version v1.9.0*

For a company known for solid high quality sound and less so for 'Bells and Whistles' this app works very well. Needed to update the firmware on my T787 before it would work. Once updated it works flawlessly
Well done and thank you. .

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2013-04-04, version 1.8.0*

Very well designed. Fast, quick access to sub zones.

### 4/5 — It’s time for update !

*2020-01-25, version 1.18*

Your app is working well, but don’t you think that is time to adapt it with Ipad and BluOS ?

### 4/5 — Top NAD Fernbedienungs App

*2014-10-25, version 1.10*

Fernbedienungs App funktioniert super. Bitte an IOS 8 anpassen. Dann 5 Sterne

### 4/5 — Works as advertised

*2013-09-06, version 1.10*

Great little app. It Works on my NAD T775 A/V Surround Sound receiver (I was not sure it would since the T775 is not included in the advertised list of compatible devices). 

The only thing that disappointed me is the absence of "Speakers A/B" controls (I have a separate set of speakers in another room - Speakers B).

### 4/5 — Very Nice App!

*2013-08-25, version 1.10*

This is a very stable no nonsense app which allows you to control most aspects of your shiny new NAD receiver. I have the T777 and love it. This app makes it even better. One thing I would add... Indicators to let the user know to scroll down to expose more controls. Overall great job!

### 3/5 — Zone 2 Volume Adjustment Greyed Out

*2018-06-17, version 1.18*

App connects quickly to T 758 and works well with the settings allowed to adjust. 

Unfortunately when attempting to adjust the volume on Zone 2 even when the amplifier has been set to variable for volume on Zone 2, it will not allow the volume to be adjusted and is greyed out. Zone 2 for my set up is located outside in the patio so running in and out of the house to adjust Zone 2 volume with the Z7 remote is a bit of a pain.

### 3/5 — Freezes up

*2017-10-19, version 1.17*

I've been using this for about a year on an iPhone 6. Since the ios 11 this app freezes constantly. It seems when the phone goes to standby it disconnects with the receiver.
A minor bug fix I suspect but very annoying.
