But the Zappiti cloud is often down and then I can’t even use it to control my server (even though my internal LAN is working fine). Disappointing. ### 1/5 — Broken after the latest update *2022-09-28* Stopped working today after the latest update on the hardware ### 1/5 — Canberra Fat Cat *2021-03-14* Most useless app, I’ve ever used. Quits halfway through a task. Often doesn’t connect and is full of bugs. Which is terrible because the remote that comes with Zappiti doesn’t work 70% of the time, either. ### 5/5 — Does the job *2020-08-31, version 4.23.250* Works well with my Zappiti Mini 4K HDR player. ### 1/5 — USELESS... DOESN’T CONNECT *2018-04-29* I wanted to love this app... but it’s impossible when it won’t even connect! I keep getting the error “Unable to find any compatible Zappiti Media Center Version” even though I’m in the same room with the Zappiti showing on my television. With the Zappiti remote being a complete pain to use, I was really looking forward to this one hoping there is keyboard option instead of using that stupid arrow or directional buttons. ### 4/5 — Decent *2017-11-28, version 4.16.191* A decent app, would be good if it gave you the option to play movies tv shows off your Zappiti player on your smart phone ### 5/5 — Great app for a great player! *2017-11-10* If you have any of the Zappiti players mentioned in the app description, this is a must have app. You can control your entire media collection from your phone or pad. The app is very similar to the pc app and has all the functionality except playback on the mobile device. ## Frequently asked questions about Zappiti Media Control 4K ### What Zappiti media players are compatible with Zappiti Media Control 4K?
