About this app

**You must own a Synology NAS to run this app, and be running the latest Audio Station 6.0.0 package to get the complete set of features**

DS audio allows you to stream music stored on your DiskStation with your Android device wherever an Internet connection is available. Better yet, with the offline mode you can listen to songs stored in the device’s local memory for when no network connection is available. You can browse music by albums, artists, folders or genres, create your own playlists or share them with your friends, and even rate your music! And if you have dedicated stereo speakers at home, DS audio can also become a remote control to stream music to them.

Ratings and reviews

App freezes way too often. This is just about the ONLY APP that does that on Google Pixel 6. Otherwise the app gets the job done, that's about it. Need to be able to download an album from search results and not just album list. Often fails to download the entire album for a mysterious reason. Deleting a downloaded album is a pain, track by track. Also, would like to browse by directory like in DS File. Payback crashes at times, even from downloads. VLC is better.

It takes a long time to log in and connect to NAS. This app needs to be rewritten. Very low quality software. Whole Synology software is a mess and needs to be cleaned up. A couple of tech support guys that I talked to admit to it. Hope the new version is more condensed and user-friendly. Stay away.

It works. But the UI is really bad. The default action when selecting a file is to add all the files in the folder to the queue. Really? File/track names don't scroll except in a few places, but most notably NOT in the browser. I could go on, but that gives you an idea.
