Ratings and reviews

If it was possible to leave zero stars I would. This app refuses to connect to anything. If you are trying to use that app as a remote it would be faster to order one on Amazon. because the remote would get to you before this app would be able to connect to your device. Its nice to update your devices. but after that just delete this garbage. you will spend more time waiting for it to connect, refresh, and fail than anything.

The streaming setup has become incredibly frustrating. I’ve had to reconfigure it repeatedly, and each time feels more tedious than the last. Even worse, the setup rarely works as expected—it often takes days to get everything running properly. This time, it stopped working entirely after a firmware update. Once it's working it's great.

I've used MusiCast for years, zone control is a must for our needs. But, it seems that every couple months for the past several years, the APP just refuses to function, won't find the stereo, can't login to Sirius... AV Controller has ALWAYS worked but is much less user friendly. Please fix this thing, I spent a lot of money on a high quality receiver and this is getting very tiring...
