Also you can choose the connection from two different type:
- “VIA ROUTER” mode enables the wireless remote control operation by connecting your smartphone or tablet device to a Wi-Fi router installed in a studio or at home. Remote control is operable with email, map, or other apps and online services at the same time

Ratings and reviews

l am now retracting my bad review. I don't know what happened the first time, but after trying the app again it seems to be connecting just fine. All the functions appear to work correctly now. The only two gripes I have are that the recorder runs out of battery very fast with the app enabled, and also the recorder's monitoring cannot stream through this app. Otherwise, It works well enough.

The tascam recorder (DR22-WL) I have is great, and when the app works it works well. However, it hardly ever works properly. The WIFI connection from the device to my phone(s), across multiple android gens., constantly drops and I lose all control from the app. After that, getting it to reconnect becomes an even bigger chore for some reason. Please fix this. The recorder is great for getting live sound scratch tracks and it would be so much better if the control app worked properly.

ya know...I bought my DR-44WL for the wifi connectivity after forgetting to hit record twice on my old Tascam. The 44 is a nice device but the wifi direct with MY CELL really stinks..connects...and very slow and buggy..with both cell and 44 on a normal router based wifi network it works much better. BUT if my band is playing out God knows where, the direct flat out sucks..is it a setting I need to change on my phone? dont know but THIS is why I bought the 44...
