Ratings and reviews

Works great at my church. I have seen a bunch of bad reviews, most of them at gyms. Perhaps when there are multiple channels, it has issues? At the church, we have just the one channel. If you are connected to the church wifi, you just open the app and within a couple seconds, it is playing the audio. Crazy simple. There is a very slight delay, perhaps 1/10 second or less. This is not an issue in our use since you aren't really seeing the mouths of the speakers well enough to catch it.

Not surprised based on the other reviews, but as it was the only choice available in my gym for TV audio, I didn't have much of a choice but to use it. Needless to say, I can only confirm the poor experiences of others. I suppose it connected okay, so at least there's that. But after that, the sound disconnected like clockwork. 9:45, app briefly drops sound. 10 minutes, sound completely cuts out. Force closed and restarted the app, 9:45 and 10 minutes, same thing. Third try, same result.

My gym started using AudioFetch a few months ago and I haven't had a single day that it works on the first try. It might play the wrong channel, not play at all, be stuck on one channel, not let me switch channels or a mix of all of those. It's very frustrating. I'll be on the treadmill standing for 5+ minutes trying to get sound. Often I'll just give up and listen to my music instead. I wouldn't recommend.
