Ratings and reviews

Srays connected to my TX-RZ70 without issue, and app is reasonably responsive. Upgraded from a Yamaha RX-V6A and the MusicCast app is much slower integrating with third party music services. However, it drives me NUTS that you can't select the different Listening Modes from a drop down menu or list. You have to keep pressing the buttons over and over to toggle through, and if you listen to/watch a variety of different media it's maddening. For a $2800 receiver, this app should be MUCH better.

Great app, works great and easy to control my Onkyo Receiver but when streaming Tidal it won't let you add songs or albums to the play que. That would nice. Main reason why I use Blue OS controller app for my Node2i... It lets u add music to the play que....other than that it would be 5 stars...and it don't show album art work or can't even turn on notifications. It won't send u any notifications. Definitely needs work. As u see they don't care. But they want u to buy their products. Lol

Little difficult to figure out. Use it to control zone 2 which is my patio. Took awhile to stumble upon how to change volume. Just started getting playback error with Pandora but playback works. Very annoying. Happens with latest update. 2/22/23. Still getting plyback error with Pandora, more frequently. Update 6/14/24 Sill get playback using pandora but music plays.
