| 2024-03-31 |  | | Does what's expected and more for free! UI could be much better but thats OK with me. Useful app. |
| 2024-02-07 |  | | Does what I need it to. I was also able to load it on my Fire TV as well |
| 2022-12-15 |  | | There's a bit of a learning curve for the hidden commands, but once found it really is a great app for controlling Media Centre |
| 2022-01-19 |  | | Works well and covers most important features of my favorite program JRiver. And why just four stars? Because there is usually something that could be done better. Don't worry, reason for this is just my tight scale. I don't know if the makers of this application are still alive but if you are update this old version and make a pro version that will be chargeable. I will hapily pay for a good product. |
| 2021-11-07 |  | | Been using to stream my server over Bluetooth in my truck for years now. Rock solid for the most part. |
| 2021-01-17 |  | | Needs updated option to search for media servers by account or at least available on local network |
| 2021-01-17 |  | | Too old and can't work well with modern full screen gesture setup. Seems to not show any now playing status. But other than that. Works still |
| 2020-08-23 |  | | Error communicating with server... Comes up after about 20 mins.... Have to restart app. Google music plays for hours.. No problems. |
| 2020-08-18 |  | | Confusing to use for rendering audio from your pc. constant "communication errors", requiring me to open the phone and hit play after every single song. very annoying. |
| 2020-07-29 |  | | I've been using this since I first purchased JRiver in 2014. It works great. |
