### 1/5 — works but not ready for prime time

*2022-11-07*

I paid $1.99, hmm maybe updates are coming?
Very,very basic functions are ok.. I have a Volumio BAndcamp plug-in, not practical for this.

### 1/5 — Crap

*2022-10-21, version 1.6.2*

Don’t buy. Just a scam to get your $1.99.

**Developer response:** Hello 12345mlj,

As stated in the app description, the app is a basic tool to control your Volumio. Which is exactly what it does, all basic functions are present and work perfectly. Simple, fast and functional, for people who want a no-nonsense app.
So clearly that is not the definition of the word "scam"

### 1/5 — What happened??

*2022-07-28*

Was using my raspberry pi with volumio and then it stopped working. I assumed it was an update so I installed the latest Volumio app and it’s total garbage in comparison to the previous one. Doesn’t work most of the time!

**Developer response:** Dear chunkbiunk, 

Volumio has indeed had an update a while ago. It looks like you are having issues with Volumio and I am sorry to hear that. This controller is however separate from the Volumio system, and I cannot influence that. The controller works when your Volumio system works, and if there are issues with the Volumio system, the controller of course will not work properly either. Please report the issues you are having on the Volumio forum.

### 1/5 — good lord, what is this

*2021-08-08*
