### 5/5 — 🔥

*2024-05-19*

То, что нужно! Спасибо за приложение! 🌟

**Developer response:** Thank you for your amazing review!

### 1/5 — connection super unstable

*2024-04-28*

Using a MacBook Pro and iPad Pro 12 all on the latest versions of the system software. If you can get the app to connect to tractor Pro, it works pretty well, but whether it will connect or not seems to be a matter of hit and miss. If I close the app on iOS and reopen it, it doesn’t save the settings from previous session as it’s supposed to. It often also will not reconnect to my computer and or the program sometimes it helps to restart the app but I just did that five times and nothing helped. Feeling very frustrated. Support is basically nonexistent. I contacted the programmer about an issue earlier and they just said oh yes we see that’s a problem. Maybe we will fix it sometime down the line.

### 5/5 — 👌🏻👌🏻✅

I was waiting for something like this to come out. And just in time. My laptop wasn’t connecting my Traktor S4 to play my music or even to turn on.
