### 1/5 — No longer works

*2026-07-26, version 4.0.3*

App used to work to control audio for aux, BT etc but now the app is broken.

### 1/5 — Used to work

*2026-07-03, version 4.0.3*

Had this app in my phone to control the audio system in my RV, worked ok for the most part for 4+ years and yet today it decided not to connect, at all. Deleted, reinstalled app and won’t even “find” the PMX1. My phones Bluetooth shows ROCKFORD PMX and connects, but will NOT show in app. And since there is no stand alone remote for the PMX1 this is my only way to control it without standing in front of it. 

And to top it off, I click “Contact Support” in the app, nothing. Absolutely nothing happens.

In the 90s ROCKFORD FOSGATE was top notch in car audio, what happened?

### 1/5 — Can not connect to PMX-1

*2026-07-03, version 4.0.3*

Title says it all. Phone connects, but cannot connect with the app to the head unit to use as a remote.

### 1/5 — Needs work again

*2026-06-24, version 4.0.3*

I cannot even open the app anymore

### 1/5 — Terrible App

*2026-06-13, version 4.0.3*

It is so lame and useless it does not connect even though it finds the app it constantly shows “OFF”. This is the preferred app for a fire tv hate it absolutely hate this app

### 1/5 — PMX-RGB

*2026-05-26, version 4.0.3*

No where in this app does it let you connect to the LED controller.

### 1/5 — Sucks!

*2026-05-20, version 4.0.3*

Absolutely won’t connect to PMX 1

### 5/5 — Works great

*2026-04-03, version 4.0.3*

App has worked consistently to help change the speaker lights

### 1/5 — IPhone 17 pro issues

*2026-03-29, version 4.0.3*

I just upgraded from the iPhone 14 Pro to the IPhone 17 Pro and cannot even get this app to open.

### 1/5 — TMA-1000x4I not recognized???

*2025-10-26, version 3.0.35*

I have a TMA-1000x4I, but the app recognizes it as a TMA-800. This is creating all sorts of playback issues. Is there a fix for this???
