## What is Simple AVR?

Simple AVR brings focused control of compatible Denon and Marantz AV receivers to Apple Watch. Use the iPhone companion to discover your receiver on the local network or add it by IP address, then control it from your wrist.

Included with the app:
• Main Zone power, volume, mute and input control
• Volume adjustment with the Digital Crown
• Adjustable Crown sensitivity and direction
• Receiver discovery and information on iPhone

Premium — optional one-time in-app purchase:
• Control Zone 2 and other supported zones
• Browse internet radio stations and USB tracks on compatible HEOS receivers
• Control HEOS playback from Apple Watch
• Customise zone names and use your receiver’s renamed inputs
• Choose which inputs appear on your Watch
• Switch between multiple receivers on the Watch
• Change the receiver’s Friendly Name from iPhone

Requires a paired iPhone and Apple Watch, with local-network access to a compatible receiver. Enable Network Control on the receiver. HEOS features require a compatible HEOS receiver; available sources and zone capabilities vary by model and receiver configuration. HEOS audio is shared between zones using the receiver’s HEOS player.

Premium is a one-time purchase, not a subscription.

Simple AVR is independent and is not affiliated with or endorsed by Denon, Marantz or their parent companies.
