### 1/5 — Feeling ripped-off for $5 bucks right now

*2026-02-27*

I paid for this app 30 mins ago. The very first thing I look for when dialing-in a mixer is the signal levels… This app layout doesn’t even have levels to indicate it’s receiving a signal. How are we supposed to control the faders when there’s no metric of the input.? Maybe I’m missing something here, and if so, please correct me…but this thing is almost useless for my band, I certainly wouldn’t risk feedback and other problems in a live setting. Where’s the refund button? My next negative comments will be directed at Behringer for not updating their XAIR software so we don’t have to search around for these other bobo apps…..

### 1/5 — Don’t waste your money

*2025-06-17, version 2.1*

Complete garbage

### 1/5 — App crashes constantly

*2025-05-04*

This app takes about 10-15 tries to properly sync to the mixer. Most of the time it will get only some of the settings synced to the app.  If everything does not sync the app will crash as soon as you interact with it. Completely unusable

### 1/5 — Cannot connect

*2024-09-25, version 2.1*

Very disappointed after 4 yrs 1st review by another customer

### 1/5 — Ressarcimento

*2023-11-25*

Tem como ? Pelo amor Deus muito ruim sem chance de usar …

### 1/5 — Não funciona, não compre

*2023-11-19*

Não carrega a mesa

### 1/5 — Don’t Buy It

*2023-08-03*

I used this app for four years problem free, but now this app is worthless after several mad operating system updates. it’s If you’re considering buying a Behringer product and running it from an IPad—DONT! Even with a brand new iPad we now have two Behringer devices that refuse to work with them on this app only later to find out this app has been glitching and corrupt for months and nobody seems to be anything about it. Apple needs to help on this one and make Behringer either fix it or stop advertising their products as being Apple compatible because this app is currently not.

### 4/5 — 기능상으로 부족한 점이 많습니다만….

*2023-06-19*

공식 앱(xair)가 바보가 된 상황에서 eq라도 손댈 수 있어서 다행이랄까요?
원래는 아이폰에서 볼륨이라도 컨트롤해볼까 해서 구입했던 앱인데 그냥저냥 공식 앱보다 더 안정적인 기분입니다… 그렇다고 구입하기에는 좀 아깝고… 아무튼 없는 것보다는나은…. 바람이 있다면 기능을 좀 더 열어줄 수는 없는지….

### 1/5 — No funciona

*2023-06-05, version 2.1*

Se ve muy bien pero no funciona, no encuentra la mixer de ningún modo, se traba al buscar dispositivos y ora volver a intentar hay que cerrar la aplicación y volver a abrir, pero no sirve de nada… una lástima que no funcione como debería

### 3/5 — Stability on iOS

*2023-05-08, version 2.1*

So far we’re ok… at least doesn’t crash like behringer X air, it doesn’t Work at all… let see on air
