Does the job perfectly and by providing visual information on your phone or tablet it is a step up from the supplied remote.

Doesn't work with SR-B30A even though the instructions clearly state you can use the app to control the soundbar. I know I'm connected to Bluetooth because I can stream music from my phone to the soundbar. App just doesn't find it even while 1 ft away from it.
