### 2/5 — Works on Older iOS System

*2024-04-06, version 4.0.1*

App crashes on iPad Pro with iOS 17.4.1 but works with iOS 12.5.7 on old circa 2013 iPad Mini 2.  Oppo stopped supporting this app years ago.

### 1/5 — App no longer working

*2023-11-26*

Not sure what happened but the app is no longer working. When it attempts to start and connect with player it shuts down. I guess there is some cell software compatibility that is no longer supported.

### 1/5 — Oppo Player is great. The app, not so much.

*2023-05-14*

I have been using the app for months without issue, but now I get a “client not found” message when trying to use tidal.  Neither Oppo or Tidal seem to care.  Stinks because it sounded great while it was working.  I doubt any one from either company will resolve this, but I figure I will put it out for others to read.

### 1/5 — Crashes - obsolete.

*2023-01-01, version 4.0.1*

I was hopeful for this app, and it configured OK, but then simply crashes. Unfortunate!

### 1/5 — No file access

*2022-05-28, version 4.0.1*

Remote app works, but will not access the USB hard drive. Worked for years with 
my Apple 5S, but not with my SE. Please update!!!

### 1/5 — Terrible app

*2022-05-25, version 4.0.1*

Does not connect!

### 1/5 — Crashes constantly

*2022-03-31, version 4.0.1*

I can’t even get the app to stay open for more than 10 seconds.  It used to work now it’s permanently broke.

### 1/5 — Was pretty good - now Dead

*2022-03-28*

I understand a lot of people weren't pleased with this app. I never had any issues with it and loved the way it gave me access to all my files as well as TIDAL, all from my couch. Now it crashes upon opening. I assume it desperately needs an update and I’m guessing Oppo Digital, which is now a phone company, doesn’t want to put funds into a dead end division. Nonetheless, I wrote them, hoping someone will update the app at least one more time.
Hope springs eternal…

### 5/5 — Great app

*2021-10-17*

Ability to browse network and select media is great. Great app thank you!

### 5/5 — Oppo is a smarty pants

*2021-05-25, version 4.0.1*

Damn,
I didn’t know my BDP103D could act as a music server. Throw a USB in the back, connect wifi dongle, load the App and it works a dream.
Thank you Oppo.
