### 3/5 — Ios26 issues?

*2025-12-26, version 1.9.14*

Rig Manager was working well up until this update to IOS 26. Now it regularly freezes when trying to edit a rig and when connected to the profiler player it doesn’t display the options under each effect. Just load default

### 4/5 — App fechando

*2025-09-14, version 1.9.11*

App eh muito bom, mas está fechando e não consigo editar pelo telefone em cima do palco caso precise fazer alguma mudança de última hora.

### 3/5 — Won’t connect anymore

*2025-08-04, version 1.9.8*

This is screwing up my gig!

### 4/5 — A little awkward

*2024-12-09, version 1.9.1*

After upgrade to levels 2 and 3 some banks are inaccessible from the iOS app. On an app there is no reason why you could not show all available banks. Happy with the upgrades. Working really well!

### 4/5 — Super App

*2024-11-01, version 1.8.7*

Ich mag die App sehr. In Verbindung mit dem kleinen Player , der kein eigenes Display hat ist das super. Ich Persönlich würde mir gerade in Verbindung mim Kemper Player eine Optische Einbindung vom Tuner und vom Looper wünschen 🥰 dann wäre sie perfekt.

### 4/5 — Latest version crashes on connection

*2024-09-29, version 1.8.0*

App crashes immediately after I tap Connect to my Kemper Player over wi-fi.

### 1/5 — I’m so disappointed with this app….

*2024-07-20*

I wish this would work. It regularly crashes (if it even connects in the first place). I really expected more from a brand like Kemper. The app is miles behind something like Quad Cortex. I bout the profiler player and the power kabinet, but the lack of working app makes this setup almost useless….

### 3/5 — Confusing wifi and mobile app set up

*2024-06-24*

For the profiler player, I was frustrated when the mobile app would not connect. It turns out you have to first load rig manager on computer with usb and then from the computer edit the wifi setup and store the ssid and password. Once that is done then change the phone or ipad wifi to match what you input. This is weird and counter intuitive. Once your network is resolved the mobile app will work. I would like to see the apps show factory and community rigs but it will only show installed rigs. You can install rigs using the desktop rig manager via usb. Again, weird but since the Player device has no screen, necessary.

### 1/5 — Does not connect

*2024-06-06, version 1.7.2*

This app will not connect to my Kemper access point like everyone says it should. Keeps saying the app needs to have access to devices on the network but it doesn’t show in my apps list to give permissions. It’s like the app isn’t on my iOS at all.

### 3/5 — One key feature still needed

*2024-05-22, version 1.7.2*

Love this and purposely got a PoE switch so I could use this app with the Remote.

But the Rig browsing is awful.  Need to be able to select from a full list, not just next/previous.  It’s almost unusable as a Mac Rig Manager replacement due to this.

### 3/5 — Ok I can connect it…

*2024-03-18, version 1.7.2*

…but it’s really tricky! I think you can explain it in a simpler way but to manage your rigs through the App of your smartphone you have to select your device from the WIFI options not from the bluetooth!!! You have to think the player like it is some kind of wifi signal you have to reach! And only after that the app will connect!

### 4/5 — Kemper Player gut nutzbar

*2024-03-04, version 1.6.15*

Für den Kemper Player sehr gut nutzbar. Für tiefere Anpassungen nutze ich dann das USB-PC-Programm - dies ist o.k.
Bitte auf dem iPad anders programmieren. Drehregler sind doch sehr unpraktisch mit dem Finger zu bedienen -> Fader bitte.

### 1/5 — NO!

*2024-02-22, version 1.6.14*

It didn’t show up in settings and wouldn’t connect. Do NOT recommend.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work with Kemper player -iPhone 15 pro max

*2024-02-18, version 1.6.14*

This app doesn’t work with my Kemper Player and iPhone 15th max, only let u open the app in demo mode despite that is connected via Bluetooth etc… such a bummer cos I can only edit connecting by usb to my iMac, fix it please 🙏

### 1/5 — Apple or Android will not stay connected with Rig Manager

*2026-02-14, version 1.9.16*

New MK2 profiler and all software is current.

### 1/5 — Funktioniert nicht auf IPhone

*2025-09-08, version 1.9.11*

Stürzt nach 2 Sekunden ab. Keine Möglichkeit auf dem Handy zu bedienen

### 1/5 — Unter iOS 18.5…

*2025-06-30, version 1.9.8*

… keine Funktion. App startet nicht bzw. stürzt sofort ab am iPhone 15pro.

### 1/5 — Wifi Flaky

*2025-06-20, version 1.9.8*

Getting the wifi to work is an absolute pain. Please let us connect via Bluetooth, or better yet, let us use a wired connection just like the desktop Rig manager.

### 1/5 — Can’t even open

*2025-01-02, version 1.9.1*

Kemper need to do better. Offerings from Neural etc are already ahead, not good enough!

### 1/5 — 3 updates in a week still not working

*2024-10-02*

Still cant see the level 3 effects in 1.8.2

### 1/5 — WONT STOP CRASHING

*2024-09-30, version 1.8.0*

Honestly don’t update it if you don’t have to.

### 1/5 — Вылетает на iPhone 15 pro Max и на iPhone 13 pro Max.

*2024-09-29, version 1.8.0*

Авиарежим не помогает. После всех манипуляций с подключением по вайфай, заходим в приложение и просто вылетает.

### 1/5 — App fecha quando se tenta conectar ao Profiler

*2024-09-28, version 1.8.0*

Depois que atualizou o App ele quando se tenta conectar com o celular ele fecha o app. E não conecta de forma alguma.

### 1/5 — Ios update crashes

*2024-09-27*

After tapping update in ios , new version installs and crashes immediately.  No way to recover.  Bye bye ios rig manager.

### 5/5 — Kemper Rig Manager

*2025-08-31, version 1.9.11*

Хорошее, рабочее приложение.

### 5/5 — muito bom!

*2025-05-04, version 1.9.5*

Muito bom !

### 5/5 — It works

*2024-10-03, version 1.8.2*

It works fine for me

### 5/5 — Big help for those that struggle to connect it

*2024-04-02, version 1.7.2*

For a long time I tried to connect the app with my Kemper Stage and it was all in vain. Here’s THE BEST advice: USE THE CAMERA ON YOUR IPHONE TO READ THE QR CODE on your Kemper Stage NOT THE QR SCANNER! The QR scanner won’t connect with it.

 YOU’RE WELCOME!

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2023-10-11, version 1.4.2*

Le KEMPER STAGE est équipé d’une carte Wifi. C’est même lui qui génère le réseau Wifi. Ainsi, le RIG MANAGER de l’iPad trouve tout son intérêt. Il suffit de se connecter sur le réseau créé par le Kemper et l’iPad affiche l’interface du RIG MANAGER. C’est une version plus basique par rapport aux versions Mac et PC mais ça rend les services attendus.

### 5/5 — Makes my life easier!

*2023-06-29, version 1.4.0*

Great for quick on the fly adjustments. Love my Kemper stage!

### 5/5 — Great

*2022-12-12, version 1.2.1*

So happy Kemper made an iPhone app. Extremely convenient to switch rigs in performance mode from my couch while jamming with my kemper on the other side of the room. 

Way easier interface than the physical box and nice to not have to plug in a computer.

Main feature request: switch from performance to browser and back within the app

### 5/5 — App Works

*2022-11-18, version 1.2.1*

The App does and delivers what it was meant to be, a quick editor.

### 5/5 — Funktioniert prima! Dankeschön dafür! … 🎶🎶🎶

*2022-08-22, version 1.2.1*

Liebes Kemper-Team!
Einen Wunsch habe ich: Bitte eine aufklappbare Liste der Performances anbieten, damit die Auswahl einer Performance schneller gelingt. Oder gibt es vielleicht schon eine Möglichkeit dafür?
Schöne Grüße Volker

### 5/5 — Smooth set up and performance

*2022-04-19, version 1.2.0*

This app works great, totally unlike the pc app, which I have to constantly reinstall. There is some ancient version still on my oc somewhere, and for some reason, that creates conflicts with the updated version. I can’t find or remove the old version. It would be great if this app also had the capability to let you browse through your rigs, if it did, then I would never have to use the ridiculous pc app again.
